Presidents Speech for
PAM Annual Dinner 2007
My vision for Malaysian Architecture
My mission is to promote, strengthen, and
champion the Architecture Profession, so as
to bring it to greater heights. I have always
been passionate about architecture and the
Institutes works. Even in my students days
in Australia I was already a student member
of both PAM and RAIA. I have benefited
greatly from both institutes publications
and activities. As such, I always believe in
contributing to the profession through the
Institute, so that the profession and future
students could continue to benefit from the
practical and moral support of a strong and
well-respected professional body.
If there is ever a time we are proud and can
say that PAM is heading towards stability
and being united, this is it. Looking back at
PAMs recent achievements under the last 3
presidents leaderships, it is undeniable that
PAM would not have accomplished so much,
for example PAM Convention, Design Lecture
Series, CPD programmes, ISO 9000, New
PAM form of contract, etc. and accomplished
them so well, if there were no stability and
continuity within PAM. Continuity and
stability are the cornerstones of any good
governance. PAM currently has the most
united, committed, and capable Council
members of diverse opinions from practices
of different backgrounds and sizes. And with
this and your continued support, a lot more
can certainly be done for the architecture
profession and the construction industry.
There has been a rise in building jobs in
Malaysia. It has grown by 4.2% this year,
while the value of projects awarded to go
up to RM57 billion this year. Of this, RM33
billion was expected from the private sector
and the balance of RM24 billion would be
from public spending. This is good news
to architects. The better news is that these
figures do not include potential projects to be
rolled out under the five economic corridors
such as the Iskandar Development Region
and the Northern Corridor Economic Region.

Ar Lee Chor Wah, President PAM
There are also tremendous growth in other
countries such as the UAE, India, China,
Vietnam and Singapore. This world-wide
boom has benefited many Malaysian
architects and architect firms. With so much
work both in Malaysia and overseas, we are
now facing the problem of acute shortage in
human resource. We are losing many good
people in this brain drain.
There is much to be done to take the
profession and PAM through this period
of unprecedented growth to the next level
of excellence and distinction so that we
could stand out from the rest. Apart from
continuing with the current policies of
programmes, I plan to address the myriad of
issues surrounding the profession with the
following five visions or strategies:
One, Architecture Re-branded or the
rebranding of Architecture as a profession.
Our immediate past President had often
referred to architecture as the oldest legal
profession in the world. It is also one of
the oldest professions in Malaysia. In

fact the history of PAM goes back before
Merdeka. Branding is now the buzzword
for all businesses. As our nation has just
celebrated its 50th birthday, it is perhaps
timely for us to reflect on where we came
from, where we are today, and how far

architecture profession.
With a renewed image, our works
as architects would then be better
appreciated by the clients, the public and
the government. We can then be better
respected and even better remunerated with
the impending revised fee scale. When this
happens, more young and capable people
may then be inspired and attracted to join
the profession. Additionally, the importance
of quality education in the training of
Architects will also be emphasized.
Two, Architecture Excelled or Excellence in
Architecture Practice.
That is, to strengthen our profession
by regaining our leadership role in the
construction industry through capacity
building such as programmes for Malaysian
architects to excel in business, marketing,
computing, and other skills so as to be on
par to compete with international architects,
and also to provide networking opportunities
with the emergent markets such as Vietnam,
India and the UAE through PSDC and
MATRADE.
Three, Architecture Published, that is,
to publish more books on Malaysian
architecture.
It is very sad that there are no books on
even some of PAMs gold medallists such
as the late Dato Kington Loo and Dato
Hisham Albakri. I therefore plan to facilitate
the publications of more books on Malaysian
so as to promote Malaysian Architects and
Architecture - locally for the public to better
appreciate and understand the contributions
of Malaysian Architects, and globally to show
case Malaysias Architectural talents, for the
export of services.
Four, Architecture Delivered
It is indeed gratifying for the government to
have so much faith in us, in entrusting us
with self-regulation and self-certification. As
such we need to work with the Government
and local authorities on CCC and OSC
for a more efficient delivery system so as
to bring about better quality buildings in
a faster manner to the homebuyers and
developers, and in the process making
Malaysia internationally competitive. Even
the cheapest car in Malaysia, say a thirty-
odd thousand ringgit Kancil enjoys better
maintenance than any building. There
seem to be a common misconception that
buildings are either maintenance free or they
have some kind of built-in programmes to
maintain themselves. We must help correct
this misconception. We must therefore
promote systemic asset management as an
essential on-going concern especially for
public buildings not only for health and safety
but also for enhanced value of the properties
and lower long-term running costs. And
by so doing, the profession can take pride
in its contribution and involvement towards
shaping our environment.
Ar Lee Chor Wah
Lastly, Architecture Recognised, that is, giving
due recognition to architects.
in a car. Yet the public in general know
more about cars than buildings. We need
to educate the public about architecture.
Therefore we need to promote Malaysian
Architects and Architecture through both
local and regional media and to acknowledge
the creative contributions of architects to the
society by encouraging developers and the
media to give due credits to the architects.
One of which is the listing of architects
names when their designs are being launched
or featured. Such recognition has also been
done through many of PAMs Awards, such
as the one to be announced later tonight. In
addition, we need to actively communicate
architects views and concerns on issues
affecting the profession, the built environment
and the public through the media.
Ladies and gentlemen, you and I know that
the work of PAM cannot be accomplished
by a single person. Therefore, I need
all your support, and together with a
dedicated Council, supported by an efficient
secretariat, to promote our profession in
serving the public, the building industry, and
the architecture profession.
Please enjoy the rest of the evening
which has been specially prepared by the
Organising Chairman, Ar Mohd Zulhemlee
and his hardworking team.

A once only seminar on PAM Contract 2006 would be organised
on 23 & 24 November 2007 at MATRADE Convention Centre,
Kuala Lumpur. The CPD Committee would produce a good CD for
distribution at the Chapters, as the speakers did not intend to do
another seminar. It was agreed that Chapter representatives could sit
with the Committee as training so that he or she could conduct the
seminar at their respective Chapters.
To the feedback received that the PAM Contract 2006 could not
be used until the adjudication rules were drafted, the Alternative
Dispute Resolution Committee agreed to draft the rules urgently.
Council agreed to write to LAM with a proposal that the Chapters
support airfare costs while PAM supports local hospitality for the
Chapters to be represented at LAM.
Ar Lawrence Lim represented PAM Northern Chapter, who was
invited to give a talk on CCC during the seminar entitled Improving
the Housing Delivery System organised by the Penang Gerakan
Housing Bureau, Legal Bureau and Consumers Affairs Bureau.
Majlis Perbandaran Seberang Perai (MPSP) had accepted the
architects right to submit without planners endorsement.
PAM could learn from the Chapters experience and take the
same approach to solve the issue in Selangor and Klang Valley.
Currently, PAM was having discussions with MIP to resolve at the
administrative level on the right of architects to submit.
CCC had been implemented but the deposit of fees with LAM
was still not in place. The Secretariat would get from LAM the status
of the proposal and report to Council. The Sabah Government
agreed to follow the Federal Government in implementing CCC and
asked PAM Sabah Chapter to look into implementing it in Sabah.
The Sarawak Government has decided not to implement CCC
but instead implement a checklist system. The system had gone
on trial and early feedback was that the checklist was becoming
cumbersome as the local authorities were checking the checklist.
Members were requested to provide in writing with evidence all
Perbandaran Pulau Pinang (MPPP) was being arranged and the
the amendments to the OSC guidelines and on who could submit
Applications. The discussions are ongoing.
PAM Sabah Chapter was working on a standard stamp for
use by submitting persons to prevent submission by non-
authorised individuals, as proposed by the Sabah Ministry of
role to register architects as specified in the Architects Act. The
Chapter should not allow the registration of architects with the local
authorities; instead the local authorities should get confirmation from
LAM, to avoid setting a precedent. Architects who get rejected by
local council should inform LAM.
For Council year 2007-2008 , the PAM Sarawak Chapter agreed
to focus on conservation and sustainable design. It was suggested
for this focus to be also taken up at PAM Council level, such as, by
adding a category in the PAM Awards and including this topic in the
CPD programmes.
PAM-SIA Dialogue was proposed to be held on Friday 30
November 2007 to coincide with Archifest organised by the
Singapore Institute of Architects.
Council agreed that both hard and soft copies of Berita Akitek
would be sent to Members during a transition period of 6 months
from January to June 2008, after which only the electronic version
would be sent to all members.
PAM jointly with ACEM, REHDA and MBAM had sent a Memorandum
to all Cabinet Ministers to highlight that the Building Surveyors Act
should not be accepted as a separate Act, but in a section under the
Architects Act.
The Human Resource Survey was circulated to 1305 Corporate
Members and 19 (1.5%) responses were received. It was proposed
that PAM work with the relevant Ministry to resolve the problem, for
example get work permit for foreign architects to be employed.
Council agreed that PAM should participate in the Sharjah Expo to
be held from 13 to 15 January 2007. PAM brochures and DVD were
being prepared and could be used for the exhibition.
PAM has accepted the Muscat Municipalitys Ministers invitation to
do a feasibility study in Muscat, Oman, to assist in the rebuilding
of the city after it was destroyed by a cyclone in June 2007.
