Welcome to Quantity Surveying and Construction Procurement

Assalamualaikum and dear all,

This blog compliments teaching and learning for courses that I facilitate at the International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM). The contents serve to further 'connect' students to the 'real world' (quantity surveying, construction procurement and others). In trying to provide current information to students, I will be quoting or reproducing works of others and for this I am grateful. I will indicate clearly the source(s). I hope I will not offend anyone; and many will frequent this blog and benefit from its contents.

Thank you and wassalam.

Mediation as an alternative method of dispute resolution

Salam and dear all,
  1. The article below (from The Star, 29th October 2010) illustrates the growing trend in using ADR to settle disputes, in this case via Mediation.
  2. For those in the construction industry, the PAM Form 2006 includes a provision on Mediation but this requirement is not mandatory. Read the article here: CJ pushes mediation option
Wassalam.
