On January 20, 2026, Optimind will hold a webinar explaining the revisions to the Logistics Act from both administrative and practical perspectives.
The seminar featured a presentation by Mr. Awai, an attorney at TMI Associates who serves as a digital advisor to the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, responsible for policy formulation and other related matters.
In this second installment, we will focus on the Logistics Efficiency Act and organize the practical measures that shippers should take in preparation for its implementation in 2026.
Optimind describes the seminar as one in which "in this era where legal compliance and practical approaches are required to change, participants will truly understand 'what legal compliance is necessary for your company' and 'are there any governance issues with your current initiatives' through a comprehensive Q&A session."
Additionally, the video from the first seminar (Revised Subcontracting Act/Trucking Act) held on December 4th will be made available for a limited time to all applicants for the second seminar.
[Recommended for these people]
Executives, logistics managers, and legal affairs personnel who wish to review their company's legal compliance and governance systems.
Logistics managers who want to resolve their questions and concerns about how to implement the revised law in their own company before it comes into effect.
Logistics and legal departments want to standardize the level of information and knowledge within the company regarding legal revisions.
