00:00So that's why the science, technology, and innovation sector has been strengthened, STI.
00:12And this foundation has been strengthened through the science, biotechnology of the country,
00:20which is carried out by the Ministry.
00:23And I suggest that programs like this should attract the attention of researchers from local universities.
00:31And there is also a plan to introduce it to children at school.
00:35We are facing a problem now because the interest of school children in STEM is declining.
00:44The country needs tens of thousands of additional people.
00:49Technologists, biotech, digital, AI.
00:53But the interest of children is declining.
00:56And there are many reasons.
01:01But the important thing is not to look for an excuse, but how can we find all the ways.
01:07That's why I suggest that you should work closely with the Ministry of Education
01:18so that the program can increase the interest of children in STEM
01:27more than what we have seen before.
01:32I would like to say that Biocon can increase the effort.
01:41Earlier, Suradika promised that the investment will increase.
01:50I believe it, but we have to look at it.
01:54We have to pay attention to the progress so that the investment is made through a more sustainable work structure.
02:07Because this will also provide greater job opportunities.
02:12And I believe that this effort will be beneficial.
02:18And because of this effort, there is an old friend of mine,
02:27but I have not given him an incentive.
02:30So I agree that we should give an additional two million ringgit this year.
02:37Those who are present may understand more,
02:41but they also have to understand that this is a new era, a new industry.
02:48It cannot develop yet in the minds of the people.
02:52So that's why I hope that programs like this can promote the industry,
02:58and it can also be changed to one or two other areas.
03:02Although in a small way, and some of the small protocols that I have given may be useful
03:09to be around, if not in schools, in several areas of choice.
03:20Because it is very important that we provide education to young people in schools and middle schools
03:29to stimulate interest and action in this field.
03:34Because I was upset earlier about the lack of interest in STEM,
03:41but when there are several ways of enlightenment from scientists and mathematicians,
03:47it can be improved on its own.
03:49So that's why I always appeal to professionals in this field,
03:54including the ministry and the agency,
03:57so that once in a while, once a month, once every two months,
04:01they can choose to go to school, to go to university.
04:06So they will be amazed by young scientists, PhDs from all over the world,
04:12making education in various fields.
04:15So it can be done.
04:18Or from companies that are successful.
04:21For example, a company with the status of a bionexus.
04:25That in itself will boost, because under the accelerator program,
04:34we can use the information that has been delivered to the lower levels.
04:39So don't underestimate this, because we get information from middle schools,
04:46especially in the outskirts of the city and in the villages.
04:49That's a long way to go.
04:51So if possible, there are a hundred scientists and biotech,
04:58from agencies, from ministries, from companies.
05:02Once a month, two or three hours, go to school in the middle,
05:07and give a little enlightenment.
05:10That will be of great benefit to our children.
05:16I ask Likang and Buncai to arrange,
05:22and maybe in two weeks, they will give me a report on the plan that will be presented.
05:28I always give two weeks to get a list of 100 people
05:32who will go to 100 schools across the country.
