      Once again, FIATA brought forward some smart, interesting, and very appealing young forwarding talent at the opening of the organization’s World Congress event taking place this week in Kuala Lumpur.
      As always, Stanley Lim and Issa Baluch were in the center of the action.
      Both gentleman have served as President of FIATA and today continue in various posts as part of the organization’s Board of Directors.
      But that is not what this is all about.
      With all their years of service and success in business, these two professionals remain totally committed to building FIATA into the global transportation organization with the best educational outreach program in the world.
      It’s not just the legions of young logisticians that owe the development and pride they hold for their careers to the encouragement and training received via FIATA. Day One at FIATA 2017 was a showcase for two fine gentlemen and their continued effort to build freight forwarding through education from the ground up.
      Of course, the FIATA educational program is a team effort and the result of hard work by many people.
      But Stanley & Issa put a face on the proceedings year after year and their decency and hard work is nothing short of inspirational.
      To understand the motivations behind the men, we asked a simple question: If you faced your younger selves today, what would you tell them?
      You might guess what their answers were.
      Their spirit of education and commitment to the next generation of forwarders speaks louder than any words.
