The economy achieved a continuous growth since 1970,

successfully transforming from a predominantly agriculture-

based economy in the 1970s, to manufacturing in the mid-

1980s, and to modern services in the 1990s.

Case Study 1: National R&D Priority Areas

• Project owner : National Science & Research Council

• Horizon : 10 years

• The listed prioritized R&D areas will provide the basis for

resource allocation of the country for the next 10 years

and beyond.

Case Study 2: Malaysian Aerospace BluePrint

• Project owner : The Malaysian Aerospace

Council


• Vision: “Malaysia to become a regional

and global aerospace player by 2015”

• Vision 2020 and 7th Malaysia Plan are

committed to making technology the base for

sustainable growth…where aerospace

industry houses core technologies of the

future

• 1994 – High level stakeholders engagement

was conducted through a platform called

MIGHT Interest Group (MIG) in Aerospace

• 1997 – The National Aerospace Blueprint

“Piloting the Aerospace Industry Take-Off”

was launched during LIMA in Langkawi, Kedah

• Actions: Outlines 45 recommendations to

achieve the vision


Clear Direction & Focus

…the blueprint’s recommendations were rationalised by the Malaysian

Aerospace Council (MAC) into four (4) niche areas for Malaysia to become

a global aerospace player by 2015

MAC’s AIM: Provide vision, direction and the overall development plan of the national

aerospace Industry; as well as policy guidelines and identify priority areas of aerospace activities

Case Study 3: Future Rail 2030

• Project owner : The Rail Industry


• Global megatrends such as climate

change, energy scarcity, emergence of

megacities, congestion and others

indicated the needs for a greener and an

efficient future mobility

Visioning that by 2030, Malaysia rail industry

will be a strong and sustainable business,

capable of satisfying the demands of the

national rail transportation; and a competitive

global player that optimises the use of

indigenous resources and technologies.

On-Going Initiatives

• Establishment of Centre of

Excellence (CoE) for Rail

• Development of Rail

Standard

• Offsets for MRT project


…based on experiences in implementing the case studies, there are

several critical components that would enhance effectiveness in

transforming policy planning into actions:

• INTERMEDIARY ROLE – there is a need for a strong intermediary

role especially involving cross-ministerial and multi-sectoral

domains.

• ALIGNMENT TO NATIONAL AGENDA – there is a need to integrate

and synergize with the national agenda (big picture)

• CHAMPIONS – there is a need to identify and get buy-in at the

early stage from relevant stakeholders which will involve actively

in the implementation stage

• STRATEGIC PLATFORMS – leverage and maximize the use of

available means such as strategic partnership or programs,

national level council, to name a few.
