Atma Jaya Catholic University of Indonesia (AJCUI) and Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS (UTP) of Malaysia had organised the Talk Series 2020 with the theme “Navigating to the New Normal: Rethinking the Role of Energy Towards Global Sustainability" from 9th – 18th June 2020. This talk was part of a close collaboration between both the universities, sparked from an initial matching grant partnership, led by Associate Professor Dr Ting Ding Hooi of UTP and Associate Professor Dr Endang Sulistyaningsih of AJCUI as well as a signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the two universities. The event was officiated through virtual press conference by UTP Vice Chancellor Prof Ts. Dr Mohamed Ibrahim Abdul Mutalib and Dr Agustinus Prasetyantoko, Rector of AJCUI. The Talk Series 2020 aimed to gather interested parties – industry players, academics, higher institution students, to participate in the current global development in the Global, Regional Economy and Sustainability Practices, amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The focus was on how the pandemic has impacted the sustainability of the Energy Sectors. The collaboration will be followed by another series of activities in research, teaching, and student exchanges.
The speakers were the knowledgeable brains of the two universities with long experience in the field—the top leaders, bright lecturers, real business actors in the energy sector, as well as the policymakers from the two countries of Indonesia and Malaysia.
