“The way ahead for MINCO is two-fold. It lies in building stronger, better, superior foundations in what we know and in charting unfamiliar territory and making it our own. After all, engineering is a passion and an adventure for us. It always has been. We are committed to capitalize on our best practices and technologies in order to work towards a sustainable tomorrow.” Datuk Rosaline Ganendra, Director of Minconsult.
