As demonstrated in the “ASEAN Outlook on the Indo-Pacific”\, international law\, notably the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS)\, shall be upheld to facilitate maritime cooperation and the peaceful settlement of territorial disputes in the Indo-Pacific region. Join this session (Day 1) of the virtual symposium to deepen the discussion on the administration of the UNCLOS 1982 in the Indo-Pacific and the challenges faced by regional states in upholding the UNCLOS 1982\, notably in issues of compliance for the peaceful resolution of territorial disputes. \nAGENDA \n \n\n\n\n \n\n\nTime\nBy\n\n\n\n\n15:00 – 15:10\nOpening RemarksDatuk Dr Sabirin Ja’afarDirector-GeneralMaritime Institute of Malaysia (MIMA)\n\n\n15:10 – 16:20\nModerator:Prof. Dr Irwin Ooi Ui Joo Head of Centre for Advocacy & Dispute Resolution\, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM)\, Malaysia\n\n\n\nSpeakers:Prof. Jay L.

Brunei\, China\, Malaysia\, the Philippines\, and Vietnam claim parts of the South China Sea. The Indo-Pacific states wish to ensure freedom of navigation and overflight as stipulated in the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). Nonetheless\, differences in the interpretations of freedom of navigation and overflight under the UNCLOS 1982 have led to disputes within the contested waters. Join this session (Day 2) of the virtual symposium seeks to discuss the differences in the understandings of freedom of navigation and overflight across the region\, address the build-up of military activities\, and seek to best resolve some of the issues seen in the South China Sea. \nAGENDA \n \n\n\n\n \n\n\nTime\nBy\n\n\n\n\n09:30 – 10:45 a.m\nModerator:Dr Nguyen Hung SonVice President and Director-General of the East Sea Institute Diplomatic Academy of Vietnam (DAV)\n\n\n\nSpeakers:Prof. James KraskaChair and Charles H.

The economic overexploitation and increasing conflicts between competing resource users have increasingly degraded ocean health in the Indo-Pacific region. With the United Nation’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and Sustainable Development Goal 14\, life below water\, an integrated approach is needed to strengthen the rule of law in the maritime domain. The rule of law needs to be in place and enforced to regulate maritime activities such as fishing\, hydrocarbon exploration and exploitation\, mining\, coastal development\, maritime transport\, and many more. Join this session (Day 3) of the virtual symposium will feature discourse on the importance of the rule of law in monitoring maritime activities\, ensuring sustainable development in the maritime domain. \nAGENDA \n \n\n\n\n \n\n\nTime\nBy\n\n\n\n\n15:00 – 16:10\nModerator:Datuk Dr Sabirin Ja’afarDirector-General Maritime Institute of Malaysia (MIMA)\n\n\n\nSpeakers:Dr Erik J.

The forum will provide an overview of the ongoing efforts to support the implementation of measures to address greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from shipping activities within the framework of the IMO initial Strategy for reducing GHG emissions\, and more recently with the adoption of further key measures targeted at cutting the carbon intensity of all ships by at least 40% by 2030. The combination of mandatory measures combined with the implementation support from the IMO sets shipping on a pathway to decarbonisation in the global fight against climate change. These include capacity building\, technical assistance and technology cooperation through global and regional projects that would also benefit Malaysia to meet the GHG targets. Some of these examples include the GEF-UNDP-IMO GloMEEP Project (concluded)\, the IMO-Norway GreenVoyage2050 project\, as well as the upcoming IMO-Germany Asia Maritime Transport Emissions project (Blue Solutions) to cut maritime transport emissions in the region. Through this symposium\, the Ministry of Transport (MOT) Malaysia in collaboration with the Maritime Institute of Malaysia (MIMA) looks forward to contribute to knowledge sharing on emerging global\, regional and national discourse on the role of the maritime sector in decarbonisation towards supporting climate actions and sustainable growth. \nObjectives \n\nTo highlight IMO’s requirements on innovation\, knowledge sharing and technology deployment for maritime management and decarbonisation;\nTo enhance stakeholders’ awareness through sharing of perspectives on GHG reduction priorities in the maritime sector in Malaysia; and\nTo share national GHG reduction initiatives\, opportunities\, as well as issues and challenges for further development and upscaling of GHG reduction programmes at the national level.\n\nAGENDA \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n TimeBy\n\n\n\n \n 10.00 - 10.10 AMWelcoming Remarks   \nDatuk Dr Sabirin Ja’afarDirector GeneralMaritime Institute of Malaysia (MIMA) \n \n 10.10 – 11.30 AMMIMA Talk by Mr. Mohd Nazery Mohd Khalid: Application of Industry 4.0 in the Marine Industry: Updates\, Issues and OpportunitiesPresenter: Mr. Nazery Khalid \n \n 11.30 AM – 12.00 PMQuestion & Answer Session \n \n 12.00 PMEnd of Session URL:https://www.mima.gov.my/event/high-level-panel-on-fostering-innovation-knowledge-sharing LOCATION:Virtual Event (Zoom) ORGANIZER;CN="Maritime Institute of Malaysia (MIMA)":MAILTO:mima@mima.gov.my END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
