Scientists, come home!

The Science, Technology and Innovations Ministry is considering several new modules and mechanisms like the ones used in several other countries to woo Malaysian scientists abroad to return home and serve the country. Its minister, Datuk Dr Jamalud-din Jarjis said the module amd mechanism to be introduced would be based on those used in countries such as Germany, China and Taiwan which were also facing similar problems. However, the proposed plan must also identify the priorities beforehand such as modern agriculture, biotechnology and ICT (information and commnications technology) besides bringing back only those who were qualified.
