Mosti moves to raise tech-savvy youth for Industry 4.0


LABUAN: The Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (Mosti) is ramping up efforts to organise Science, Technology, and Innovation (STI) Carnivals to prepare Malaysia for the rapid advancements of Industry 4.0, with a particular emphasis on emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI).

Deputy Minister Datuk Mohammad Yusof Apdal said the carnivals are designed to educate students and the public on the significance of emerging technologies like robotics, automation, big data, advanced analytics, and various digital innovations that are reshaping conventional perspectives.

“Following last year’s successful approach, this year’s National Science Week (NSW) is being conducted in a hybrid format, with monthly activities available on virtual platforms,” he said.

According to Bernama, he said one of the primary objectives of the 2024 NSW Carnival is to celebrate the diversity of STI activities across different regions and provide a platform for local STI leaders and practitioners to showcase ideas, technologies and innovations that address the specific needs of their communities.
