KUALA LUMPUR, July 17 (Bernama) — The MADANI Government’s approach in formulating national policies that involve all departments and ministries is aimed at ensuring more inclusive and successful policies, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said.
As such, he said government departments and ministries must not work in silos, as underlined in the MADANI Economy framework.
“As the Prime Minister, I am committed to seeing the biotechnology industry grow in an inclusive and sustainable way, where technological and economic advancements do not compromise human values.
“This is the true meaning of Bioeconomy For All – a vision where advancements in biotechnology bring welfare and justice to all segments of society,” he said in his keynote address at the launch of National Bioeconomy Showcase 2024 here today.
The Prime Minister said he has also asked Minister of Science, Technology, and Innovation Chang Lih Kang to list 100 scientists in the field of biotechnology to organise programmes aimed at attracting students’ interest in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) in 100 schools across Malaysia.
