Chan Buay Lang, Karen, Senior Logistics Assistant,<br />

presently employed in GS Hub, Fulfillment Logistics, <strong>Toll</strong><br />

Global Logistics shared her thoughts on working with<br />

<strong>Toll</strong> for over 30 years, “I left school in the early 80s and<br />

joined Chartered Industries of Singapore as a confidential<br />

clerk performing clerical duties.<br />

“Over the years I took courses and found myself working in<br />

different areas of the company. I trained in HR, did some HR<br />

duties and went on to become a senior purchasing assistant.<br />

Over the past three decades, I’ve seen how the company<br />

has grown from a small unit to the established and well<br />

known global logistics company it is today. This company<br />

encourages employees to continually improve their skills.<br />

I hope to continue contributing to the company in any way<br />

I can, until my retirement”.<br />

Another colleague who took the 30 year honour is<br />

Chan Kwok Fai, Logistics Supervisor Automotive,<br />

Fulfillment Logistics, <strong>Toll</strong> Global Logistics. He said, “After<br />

leaving school in the 80s, I joined Singapore Automotive<br />

Engineering (SAE) as a storekeeper. I worked my way up<br />

and presently I am in the Quality Assurance department<br />

doing inspection of incoming automotive spares from local<br />

and overseas units. Since joining in the 80s, I have seen<br />

the company’s transformation from a small firm to one<br />

of the world’s best logistics firms. I look forward to serving<br />

<strong>Toll</strong> for many more years to come”. n<br />
