Graduation: Managing Development Programme

'Ade Kelas Beb' - literally it means we have the class.The team Ade Kelas Beb (AKB) was formed on the 11th of April 2005 at PERMATA. It comprises of five managers from PETRONAS GAS Berhad (PGB), Ethlene PolyEthlene Malaysia Sdn Bhd (EPEMSB) and PETRONAS Ammonia Sdn Bhd (PASB). Five of them namely:
- ‘Adros M Appandi a Material Service Manager at PASB and has been with PETRONAS for 18 years
- M Harus B Wagirin an Operation Utility Manager has been with PETRONAS Gas Bhd for the last 25 years
- A Rahman B Bistamam an Engineering Maintenance Manager at PGB, has been with PETRONAS for the past 22 years
- Nasruddin B M Zain a Sales Manager at EPEMSB, has been with PETRONAS for 22 years
- Saiful Anuar B Hj Joll an Organizational Improvement Manager at PASB and has been with PETRONAS for the last 16 years.

The basis of the formation is basically the geographical aspect, where all the members except Nasruddin are based at Kertih, Terengganu. Nasruddin however, is frequently available at Kertih due to his business requirement. This aspect is quite significant for the smooth progress and momentum of the team operation. Consequently, it reduced the traveling expenditure of the team members.
Lead by Saiful Anuar who was unanimously appointed by other members, the team called itself ade kelas beb. Literally it means it has class! The consideration to use the name is simply it is in line with their project theme in identifying a world class characteristics and elements. And, another aspect of it, the name is kind of a motivation factor to the members itself. Alhamdullillah, the AKB was awarded The Best Overall Project and I personally won the Best Project Award and the Best Student Award. Graduated from the MDP with the three awards was one of utmost achievement that I have ever achieved while in PETRONAS. The MDP is the collaboration effort between PERMATA and the University of Melbourne - the top best university in Australia. Again, thank you PETRONAS.
