“Aktiviti R&D pula akan terus diberi penekanan. Pelbagai penemuan dan hasil R&D institusi

penyelidikan awam berpotensi untukdikomersialkan. Maka, kerajaan memperuntukan

sebanyak 600 juta ringgit kepada 5 buah universitipenyelidikan bagi menjalankan pemyelidikan

berimpak tinggi dalam bidang strategik seperti nanoteknologi, aotomatif, bio-teknologi serta

aero-angkasa”

Excerpt from Budget 2013 speech by YAB Dato’ Seri Haji Mohd Najib Bin Tun Haji Abdul Razak

“IPT mempunyai banyak makmal penyelidikan dalam nic yang sama. Contohnya, nic Nanoteknologi mempunyai 16 buah makmal, Bioteknologi

41 buah makmal dan Automatif 84 buah makmal di seluruh negara. Kerjasama makmal penyelidikan merentasi IPT bersama industri adalah

perlu jika kita ingin melihat keberhasilan yang berimpak tinggi. Sehubungan dengan itu, kementerian ingin memperkenalkan program

Central Lab Management (CLM) atau Makmal Pengurusan Berpusatdengan peruntukan sebanyak 80 juta ringgit. Program ini bertujuanmemastikan perkongsian teknologi antara makmal penyelidikan IPT bersama industri ke arah memajukan nic strategik yang dikenalpasti

seperti Nanoteknologi, Bioteknologi dan Automatif sekaligus membantukemajuan industri negara khususnya Industri Kecil dan Sederhana (IKS).

Kerjasama ini besar ertinya apabila ia bukan sahaja mempereratkanhubungan antara makmal IPT dan industri, tetapi turut membangunkan

teknologi tempatan pada masa yang sama.”

* Based on budget 2013 speech

• A collaborative-based research programme between local industriesand IHL

• At least 3 research laboratories from different IHL to carry out specificindustrial-driven research projects

• The research team should aim to produce total R&D solution based ona specific technology focus area and thus able to showcommercialisation potential.
