Langkawi, March 29 - Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Dr. Ahmad Bashawir Abdul Ghani visited the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø (ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø) booth at the Langkawi International Maritime and Aerospace Exhibition (LIMA'19) yesterday.

The visit was made to survey visitors’ responses to the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø booth which had ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø research products on display as well as to spend some time with the staff on duty at the booth.

LIMA'19 marks ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø’s first ever participation in the prestigious international exhibition aimed at highlighting ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø products to the general public, particularly in research and university expertise.

ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø's involvement in the exhibition is also part of its internationalization agenda while enhancing ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø's relationship with the industry in line with the concept of Malaysia Incorporated.

It emulates the Japanese economic development model which involves public-private partnership with mutual benefit and targets state investment.
