TESTIMONIALS
Mr. Patrick Lee
CNC Malaysia
Mr. John Vanbergen
Cory Logistics U.K.
“With accreditation from PL/GPLN, this will be
beneficial both ways, i.e. selling to client’s of
GPLN members, that they have trained certified
personnel as well as promoting GPLN as a
responsible organization in enhancing professionalism in heavy
haulage and lifting, especially in the developing countries which
includes ASEAN, China and India. Certainly the publicity and
goodwill generated from it will do GPLN and its member a lot of
good”
“I will be keen to attend your course. To be
frank and having looked at the outline of your
intended program I do believe that you will be
providing a good grounding for our guys in
the field and we would have every intention when your road
show hits Antwerp to send a few of our guys across specifically
to attend course. Its great to see that GPLN are taking positive
steps to provide appropriate technical support to its members well done”
