This, he said, includes planning innovation that could enhance the economy of the people and contributing to the world through the export of science and technology.
“We will also improve the participation of individuals who need Mosti's services to ensure excellence in the field of innovation, science and technology,” he said in a virtual interaction session with Mosti secretary-general Datuk Dr Siti Hamisah Tapsir and ministry staff.
