Globetronics: R&D collaboration yields little result

GEORGE TOWN: The research and development (R&D) collaboration between local universities and the semiconductor and electronic industry in Malaysia has not been productive so far, according to Globetronics Technology Bhd chief executive officer Heng Huck Lee.

He claimed the R&D environment in the country did not motivate the professors and lecturers to take part in the collaboration between universities and the industry.
