It is the year 2040. The best brains are employed by many governments, world-renowned agencies and multi-national co-operations that govern the world, ride the 4IR and 5IR and thrive as Societies 5.0. Among them, many claim to be born in Malaysia, but none reside in Malaysia anymore. That is the reality we will have to bitterly accept if the things in our country remain status quo.

Whether you like it or not, the Malaysian brain drain is happening due to old-school, outdated policies/methods/thinking here in Malaysia.
