Mr. Ibrahim Mohamed Salleh, its Chief Executive Officer signed for MASkargo, Ir. Kumarason Kandiah, Accountable Manager signed for TWC, Mr. Ian Craig – Managing Director signed for CORE while Nordisk was represented by Mr. Boon Yang Sim – Vice President of Sales and Business Development, Asia Pacific & People’s Republic of China.

TWC is the local partner appointed by CORE to implement the tag and reader tracking solution for MASkargo and also the developer of the ULD Management Software associated with the technology at hand.
Speaking at the event, Ibrahim expressed his fervour on this ULD tracking solution development. “MASkargo is happy to be part of this cooperation with leaders of the industry implementing the latest of technology in tracking our equipment. Real-time ULD tracking information will enable MASkargo to more accurately monitor and replan shipments that are delayed due to irregular operations, such as extreme weather events. This will enable customers to have end-to-end tracking of the ULDs starting in their own warehouses throughout the journey to the final destination”, he ended.
“TW Control Sdn. Bhd. is excited to be part of MASkargo’s ULD cargo transformation towards Internet of Things (IoT) by installing the ULD tracking solution from Core. This is a radical and bold transformation for a typical 145 Repair ULD workshop and we intend to use it to the fullest to assist our clients in ULD management” said Kumarason.
In efforts to providing customers with visibility across the shipment lifecycle, the integration of the CORE tracking solution allows MASkargo to increase efficiency through inventory management improvements on the ground.
“CORE is proud to have MASkargo integrate our COREInsight ULD tracking solution as this will be the first in South East Asia. MASkargo will be able to reap the benefits of the system from Day 1 as once the tags are attached to MASkargo ULDs, they can immediately track their travel journey due to the large coverage of our reader network – the largest IoT for air cargo in the world. We are also proud to welcome TWC as our partner in Malaysia to provide local knowledge and support to MASkargo as well”, said Ian Craig.
“With this ground breaking agreement between MASkargo and CORE, Nordisk’s customers will be able to keep track of their ULDs and more actively manage shipments across the board” said Boon Yang Sim.
