The programme continued with a guided tour of the Muara Conventional Terminal (MCVT), where students observed vehicle handling processes, operational challenges, and safety practices. They then visited the MCVT Tally Office to gain insights into documentation, cargo monitoring, and customs integration.

The final stop was the Muara Container Terminal (MCT) Control Centre, where students observed quay crane operations and learned about digital, remote-controlled port systems.  The visit concluded with an exchange of commemorative gifts between Mr. Guo Yiqing and Dr. Mohamed Syazwan Ab Thalib, followed by a group photo session.

Overall, the visit achieved its objectives, reinforcing MPC’s commitment to academic collaboration and providing students with a comprehensive understanding of multimodal vehicle transportation and port operations in Brunei.
