PERUTUSAN KETUA SETIAUSAHA, 

KEMENTERIAN SAINS, TEKNOLOGI 

DAN INOVASI 

MESSAGE FROM THE SECRETARY 

GENERAL, MINISTRY OF SCIENCE, 

TECHNOLOGY AND INNOVATION 

Penerapan sains, teknologi dan inovasi (STI) di 

kalangan masyarakat di negara ini amat dipandang 

serius oleh kerajaan. Kesungguhan ini dapat dilihat 

dari peruntukan berjumlah RM5.3 bilion dalam RMK9 

melebihi peruntukan semasa RMK8 untuk inisiatif 

Sains, Teknologi dan Inovasi (STI), di samping inisiatif 

untuk memperkasakan Sistem Inovasi Kebangsaan 

(NIS). Dari jumlah tersebut, sebanyak 67.9 peratus 

akan disalurkan kepada penyelidikan dan 

pembangunan (R&D), pemerolehan teknologi dan 

komersialisasi proses dan produk hiliran R&D. 

Kemajuan dalam S&T negara akan memberi manfaat 

dalam menghasilkan modal insan berkualiti bagi 

menghasilkan produk-produk baru melalui 

penyelidikan berinovasi. Kemajuan STI boleh dianggap 

sebagai pemangkin pertumbuhan dan pemacu 

ekonomi negara untuk menjana ekonomi baru atau k- 

ekonomi. Saya yakin, sebagai sebuah institusi 

penyelidikan nuklear yang ulung di negara kita, Agensi 

Nuklear Malaysia (Nuklear Malaysia) sentiasa ke 

hadapan menggalakkan para penyelidiknya aktif 

Science, technology and innovation (STI) has always 

been given serious attention by the government. This 

is reflected through the allocation of RM 5.3 billion 

for STI in the 9MP, much higher than the 8MP allocation 

apart from other initiatives to strengthen the National 

Innovation System (NIS). MOSTI has been 

entrusted to manage this fund to enhance STI development 

and fortify national human capital. About 67.9 

percent of the allocated fund is channeled to research 

and development (R&D), technology acquisition, and 

commercialisation of downstream R&D products and 

processes. A competent human capital in STI is necessary 

for the generation of new products and processes 

that are beneficial to the public. STI is a 

catalyst to spur national economic growth and for the 

generation of the new economy or k-economy. I believe, 

Nuclear Malaysia, being the premier nuclear institution 

in the country will grab the opportunity and 

encourage researchers to be actively involved in market 

driven R&D. A successful researcher should 

5 



dalam aktiviti R&D berorientasikan pasaran dan 

menjana budaya penyelidikan saintifik . 

nurture the scientific research culture and is ever willing 

to face challenges. 

Kejayaan dalam R&D lazimnya terhasil dari kerja 

berpasukan yang serasi, mantap dan berpengetahuan. 

Jarang terdapat saintis dan penyelidik yang mencapai 

kecemerlangan tanpa sokongan. Kerjasama erat 

bukan sahaja diperlukan antara penyelidik dengan 

kakitangan sokongan dalam sesuatu agensi, malah 

harus merentasi kerjasama antara agensi. Saya yakin 

perancangan R&D yang sistematik akan 

membolehkan Nuklear Malaysia menghasilkan 

produk, proses dan perkhidmatan yang memenuhi 

kehendak pasaran. 

Success in R&D endeavor is normally attributed to a 

cohesive, strong and knowledgeable teamwork. A 

successful research undertaking is seldom achieved 

without support from other parties. Close operation 

is needed, not only within the organisation but also 

between agencies. These factors are prerequisite 

for a local scientist to progress and be internationally 

recognised. I envisage that through systematic R&D 

activities, Nuclear Malaysia will generate products, 

processes and services that meet stakeholders requirement 

and market demand. 

Sistem penyampaian perkhidmatan (SPP) yang 

efisien dan efektif diperkenalkan bagi menjamin 

kelancaran dan keberkesanan pelaksanaan dasar dan 

strategi pembangunan negara, yang berkait rapat 

dengan kompetensi modal insan, prosedur kerja 

munasabah dan kemudahan infrastruktur yang 

mencukupi. Petunjuk prestasi kecekapan SPP ini 

dapat diukur melalui tahap kepuasan pelanggan. 

Dalam menghadapi persaingan dan memperoleh 

pengiktirafan di peringkat global, sesebuah organisasi 

tidak dapat lari daripada penerimaan sistem 

pengurusan kualiti yang memberi penekanan kepada 

penambahbaikan berterusan. Saya berpuas hati 

kerana Nuklear Malaysia, sebagai sebuah institusi 

R&D yang matang mampu mengekalkan persijilan ISO 

sedia ada, di samping berusaha memperluaskan ke 

bahagian-bahagian lain. Saya juga difahamkan Nuklear 

Malaysia akan memperkenalkan Sistem Pengurusan 

Bersepadu (IMS) bagi mencapai Pengurusan Kualiti 

Menyeluruh (TQM) sepenuhnya pada masa akan 

datang. 

To meet this aspiration, there should be continuous 

R&D activities that align to the mainstream policy and 

development strategy. The introduction of the Service 

Delivery System (SPP) by the government, for 

example, is to facilitate efficient and effective services 

to clients and linked to human capital competency, 

plausibility of working procedure and availability 

of adequate infrastructure. The effectiveness of 

the SPP can be translated into the enhancement of 

client’ satisfaction level. 

To be globally competitive and to gain recognition, an 

organisation should implement a strong quality management 

system that emphasise on continuous improvement. 

Being a mature R&D institution, Nuclear 

Malaysia has successfully maintained ISO certifications. 

I understand that Nuclear Malaysia will introduce 

an Integrated Management System (IMS) to 

achieve Total Quality Management (TQM) status. 

MOSTI will continue to support efforts related to the 

development of STI human capital based on k- 

economy to ensure the potential of a premier technology 

could be further developed towards sustainable 

R&D. I am pleased that Nuclear Malaysia has taken 

6 



Program pembangunan sumber manusia STI yang 

berasaskan k-ekonomi akan terus dilaksanakan bagi 

memastikan pembangunan keupayaan teras dalam 

bidang teknologi utama untuk pelbagai aktiviti 

penjanaan pendapatan dan memenuhi keperluan 

industri. Saya gembira dengan pendekatan yang 

diambil oleh Nuklear Malaysia ke atas pembangunan 

modal insan melalui pengendalian pelbagai program 

latihan serta penyertaan dalam program latihan anjuran 

agensi dalam dan luar negara. Saya percaya Nuklear 

Malaysia juga proakif dalam usaha meningkatkan 

kemahiran dan kompetensi modal insannya bagi 

mencapai hasrat seperti yang di peruntukkan dalam 

SPP. 

an appropriate approach in human capital development, 

especially through various training programmes 

including participation at local and international levels. 

I am proud that Nuclear Malaysia is undertaking research 

activities that have contributed towards the 

progress of STI through discovery of new products 

and services that are beneficial to the public. I am 

convinced that Nuclear Malaysia will play a leading 

role in R&D of STI and is able to ride with the changes 

through effective, efficient and ethical strategies to 

meet current needs and future demands. 

Saya bangga dengan pencapaian Nuklear Malaysia 

dalam aktiviti penyelidikan yang menyumbang kepada 

kemajuan STI negara melalui penghasilan produk 

serta servis yang memberi manfaat kepada 

masyarakat. Saya juga yakin Nuklear Malaysia akan 

terus menerajui R&D STI dan bersedia membuat 

perubahan melalui strategi-strategi yang efektif untuk 

menghadapi cabaran selari dengan peredaran masa.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR 

GENERAL 

Tahun 2006 adalah tahun yang mencabar bagi Nuklear 

Malaysia. Alhamdullilah, dengan kematangannya 

selama lebih tiga dasawarsa membolehkannya 

mampu mengharungi cabaran dan menangani 

perubahan dengan gigih serta berjaya. Sesuai dengan 

perkembangan dan tuntutan semasa, strategi 

pelaksanaan dan pelan tindakan telah dirangka agar 

berupaya menepati sasaran yang ditetapkan. Nuklear 

Malaysia telah memberikan penekanan bukan sahaja 

kepada peningkatan keupayaan modal insan malah 

memastikan setiap aktiviti yang dijalankan adalah 

selaras dengan kepentingan nasional serta aliran 

perdana sains dan teknologi negara. 

Pertukaran nama daripada Institut Penyelidikan 

Teknologi Nuklear Malaysia (MINT) kepada Agensi 

Nuklear Malaysia (Nuklear Malaysia) dan perubahan 

struktur organisasi memungkinkan fokus terhadap 

fungsi dan aktiviti tumpuan menjadi lebih jelas. 

Penyusunan ini telah menempatkan aktiviti Nuklear 

Malaysia ke dalam program penyelidikan dan 

pembangunan teknologi, sokongan teknikal, 

The year 2006 was a challenging year to Nuclear 

Malaysia. Alhamdullillah, with her maturity of more than 

three decades, Nuclear Malaysia has been capable 

of facing the challenges and managing the change. 

In line with the current needs and development, a 

strategic action plan and its implementation has been 

developed to meet set targets. Nuclear Malaysia has 

emphasised not only to improve the human capital 

potential but also to ensure all activities are performed 

to suit the mainstream S&T and national interest. 

The change of name from Malaysian Institute for 

Nuclear Technology Research (MINT) to Malaysian 

Nuclear Agency (Nuclear Malaysia), and organisational 

restructuring has enabled the agency to realign its 

functions and activities. Following this reorganisation 

exercise, Nuclear Malaysia now consists of four 

programmes, namely research and technology 

development, technical support, commercialisation 

and technology planning and management services 

programmes. These programmes will provide means 

8 



pengkomersilan dan perancangan teknologi, dan 

khidmat pengurusan. Dengan penekanan tersebut, 

tumpuan aktiviti Nuklear Malaysia akan bersifat lebih 

terarah dan tersusun, lebih-lebih lagi dengan 

kecenderungan baru dalam kuasa nuklear sebagai 

sumber tenaga alternatif negara kita. 

Perancangan dan Pembangunan Teknologi 

Tahun 2006 adalah tahun pertama pelaksanaan RMK9 

dalam kerangka gagasan misi nasional ke arah 

mencapai Wawasan 2020. Tahun ini juga adalah 

permulaan mekanisme projek R&D peringkat nasional 

yang baru diperkenalkan. Menyedari hakikat potensi 

sains dan teknologi sebagai agen pertumbuhan 

ekonomi baru negara dalam menghadapi pasaran 

kompetitif dan persaingan global, Nuklear Malaysia 

telah menumpukan R&D kepada enam bidang 

keutamaan, terdiri daripada bahan termaju, pembuatan 

termaju, bioteknologi, ICT, sumber tenaga alternatif 

dan teknologi nano. Atas sifatnya yang merentasi 

pelbagai disiplin, teknologi nuklear menunjukkan 

kemampuan menyelesaikan masalah teknikal yang 

timbul. Projek R&D yang dijalankan adalah 

berpaksikan pacuan pasaran supaya hasilnya akan 

dapat dimanfaatkan untuk menjana ekonomi dan 

pulangan melalui kegiatan hiliran. Pelaksanaan projek 

R&D pula dipantau dan dianalisis secara berkala bagi 

memastikan projek tersebut berada di landasan yang 

betul dan sasaran dapat dicapai dalam tempoh yang 

ditetapkan. 

Bagi memantapkan pelaksanaan projek dan 

mengoptimumkan perkongsian sumber, projek-projek 

kecil telah dikonsolidasikan kepada beberapa projek 

besar yang bersesuaian untuk mendatangkan impak 

sosioekonomi yang lebih signifikan. Dalam hal ini, 

selain menjalankan beberapa projek bersama rakanrakan 

penyelidik dalaman secara matriks, kerjasama 

penyelidikan juga dijalankan dengan organisasiorganisasi 

luar. Kerjasama penyelidikan telah 

dipertingkatkan dengan penggiat industri supaya hasil 

for Nuclear Malaysia to focus its activities, including 

a renewed interest in nuclear power as an alternative 

source of energy for the nation. 

Technology Planning and Development 

The year 2006 was the first year of 9MP 

implementation within the national mission 

development framework towards achieving Vision 

2020. The year was also attributed to the beginning 

of the new R&D projects mechanism at national level. 

In realising the potential of S&T as an agent for new 

economic development for the nation, particularly in 

facing the global competitive market, Nuclear 

Malaysia has focussed its R&D into six priority areas, 

namely advanced material, advanced manufacturing, 

biotechnology, ICT, advanced alternative energy and 

nanotechnology. With its multidisciplinary features, 

nuclear technology has the ability to offer technical 

solution to arising technical problems. The R&D 

projects shall be market driven to produce beneficial 

products to generate economic return through 

downstream activities. The implementation of R&D 

projects has been periodically monitored and analysed 

to ensure the projects were on the right track and 

meet the set target within the time frame. 

To strengthen the project implementation and 

optimising resources sharing, several related projects 

have been consolidated into few main projects, which 

will produce more significant socioeconomic impact. 

In this respect, apart from conducting collaborative 

research internally through the matrix system, research 

is also conducted through collaboration with other 

research organisations. Research collaboration with 

industrial partners also has been enhanced to produce 

research products that can be directly beneficial to 

end users. Thus, the efforts have been made to ensure 

research products can be commercialised through 

technology transfer and licensing.

penyelidikan dapat dimanfaatkan secara langsung. 

Untuk itu, usaha-usaha telah dibuat supaya hasil-hasil 

penyelidikan dapat dikomersialkan melalui 

pemindahan dan pelesenan teknologi. 

Pengkomersilan Teknologi 

Pelbagai usaha telah dilaksanakan untuk 

mengkomersilkan hasil penyelidikan yang mempunyai 

potensi pasaran. Inisiatif banyak diambil dengan 

menumpukan usaha mempromosikan produk dan 

proses yang terhasil, melalui penyertaan dalam 

peragaan teknologi dan pameran selain mengenal 

pasti rakan niaga. Nuklear Malaysia telah turut serta 

dalam pameran dan pertandingan inovasi, dan peluang 

ini juga diambil untuk membina jalinan kerja. Dalam 

hal ini, promosi di kalangan syarikat perusahaan kecil 

dan sederhana (PKS) telah diberi tumpuan istimewa 

sesuai dengan hasrat kerajaan untuk mentransformasi 

syarikat PKS kepada perusahaan teknologi yang lebih 

besar dan mampu berdikari. Beberapa usul kerjasama 

telah dimeterai bersama PKS terpilih dengan cara 

membantu mendapatkan sumber biaya bagi 

menjalankan kegiatan komersil. Usaha 

membangunkan teknousahawan bukan sahaja 

dijalankan dalam kalangan syarikat, malah warga kerja 

Nuklear Malaysia juga turut diberi peluang dan 

didedahkan dengan aspek-aspek keusahawanan. 

Rancangan Bicara Eksekutif, misalnya telah diadakan 

di Nuklear Malaysia dengan menjemput tokoh-tokoh 

usahawan menyampaikan ceramah sebagai 

pendedahan terhadap alam niaga dan memupuk minat 

keusahawanan. 

Commercialisation of Technology 

Efforts have been geared to commercialise research 

products that have market potential. Besides business 

partnership identification, initiatives have also been 

taken on products and processes promotion through 

participation in technology showcase and exhibition. 

Nuclear Malaysia also participate in exhibition and 

innovation competition, and the opportunity also has 

been taken to develop networking. In this case, the 

promotional activities among small and medium scale 

industries (SMI) have been given special attention in 

line with the government intention to transform the 

SMI into self sustainable high technology industry. 

Several collaborative efforts have been sealed with 

selected SMIs to seek source of funding to carry out 

commercial activities. Effort to develop 

technoenterpreneurship was not limited to the 

companies and staff of Nuclear Malaysia was also 

given opportunity to participate in the exercise. The 

Executive Forum, for example, was held at Nuclear 

Malaysia, in which well-known business figures were 

invited to deliver talks related to the business world 

and to encourage interest in technoenterpreneurship. 

Through commercialization and technology transfer 

activities, Nuclear Malaysia has generated income of 

RM12.7 million, represanting about 22.3% of self 

sufficiency. 

Corporate Support 

Melalui aktiviti komersialisasi dan pemindahan 

teknologi, Nuklear Malaysia telah berjaya menjanakan 

pendapatan sebanyak RM12.7 juta, iaitu kira-kira 

22.3% daripada sasaran biaya diri. 

Sokongan Korporat 

Aktiviti korporat dijalankan terutama sebagai suatu 

sokongan bagi melicinkan perjalanan program R&D 


The corporate activities were undertaken as support 

activities to facilitate the implementation of R&D 

programme in Nuclear Malaysia. The success and 

firmness of R&D project mainly depends on the 

corporate support activities including development of 

human capital, bilateral and multilateral collaboration. 

The approach has enabled Nuclear Malaysia to 

acquire new knowledge and technology, and in 

P1-12 LAYOUT 10 


Nuklear Malaysia. Kemantapan dan kejayaan projek 

R&D banyak bergantung kepada aktiviti korporat 

meliputi pembangunan modal insan, hubungan 

kerjasama dua hala dan pelbagai hala. Pendekatan 

ini telah membantu Nuklear Malaysia memperoleh 

pengetahuan dan teknologi baru, serta membangun 

kapasiti warga kerja selaras dengan tuntutan prinsip 

Islam Hadhari. 

Usaha-usaha promosi dan penjenamaan semula 

menjadi agenda penting peningkatan citra organisasi, 

khususnya dalam menyalurkan maklumat kepada 

masyarakat lebih-lebih lagi dengan perubahan nama 

MINT menjadi Nuklear Malaysia. Ceramah, pameran, 

hubungan media, penerbitan berkala dan lawatan 

adalah sebahagian daripada wisalah untuk 

mendekatkan teknologi nuklear dengan orang ramai. 

Pembangunan modal insan dan pemupukan bakat 

terus dititikberatkan untuk melahirkan warga kerja 

bertaraf dunia yang kompetitif, berdaya tahan, kreatif 

dan inovatif. Sehubungan itu, modul-modul latihan yang 

komprehensif direka bentuk selain menggalakkan 

penyertaan dalam latihan formal dan tidak formal, 

selaras dengan saranan kerajaan tentang menyertai 

tujuh hari latihan setahun bagi seorang pekerja. Di 

samping itu, warga kerja khususnya para penyelidik 

diberi peluang untuk mendapatkan kelayakan 

akademik yang lebih tinggi di peringkat pascaijazah 

melalui projek penyelidikan yang diluluskan oleh 

Nuklear Malaysia. Kaedah ini mempunyai matlamat 

tiga penjuru: kemajuan kerjaya, memastikan kejayaan 

sesuatu projek dan menyumbang kepada 

peningkatan saintis dan jurutera penyelidik (RSE) 

dalam nisbah 50 RSE bagi setiap 10,000 tenaga buruh 

yang dihasratkan kerajaan dalam RMK9. 

Ruang terus dibuka bagi mempermudah warga Nuklear 

Malaysia untuk berkarya bukan sahaja bagi tujuan 

menyebarkan ilmu dan memperkaya khazanah 

penerbitan karya saintifik malah sebagai usaha 

memperkukuh posisi Nuklear Malaysia dalam komuniti 

saintifik. 

developing personnel capacity in-line with the 

principles of Islam Hadhari. 

Promotional and rebranding efforts has become 

important agenda to enhance organisational image, 

particularly in channeling information to the public, 

and most importantly after the change of name from 

MINT to Nuclear Malaysia. Talks, exhibition, media 

relation, publication of periodicals and visits are 

approaches taken to expose Nuclear Malaysia to the 

public. Development of human capital as well as 

talent is emphasised in order to produce competitive, 

resilient, creative and innovative world class workforce. 

In this respect, comprehensive training course 

modules have been designed to encourage 

participation in both formal and informal training, in 

line with the government policy of achieving seven 

days of training per worker per year. In addition, all 

staff, particularly researchers are given the opportunity 

to obtain higher academic qualification through 

Nuclear Malaysia’s approved research projects. This 

approach was aimed to achieve three objectives: 

career development, ensuring success of projects and 

contributing to an increment of research scientists 

and engineers (RSE) ratio of 50 RSE for every 10,000 

labour workforce as intended by the government in 

9MP. 

Nuclear Malaysia personnel, are always encouraged 

to write not only for knowledge dissemination and 

enrich scientific publication but also to strengthen 

Nuclear Malaysia position in the scientific community. 

To highlight the importance of quality and to portray 

the excellence of the organisation, quality management 

is continuously given attention to, to ensure firmness 

in services, efficient delivery system and 

transparency. Apart from maintaining ISO 9001 and 

ISO/IEC 17025 certification for existing services, 

Nuclear Malaysia is also taking steps to acquire 

11 



Atas kepentingan kualiti dan menyerlahkan 

keunggulan organisasi, pengurusan kualiti terus diberi 

perhatian bagi memastikan kemantapan 

perkhidmatan, kecekapan sistem penyampaian dan 

ketelusan. Selain mengekalkan pengiktirafan ISO 

9001 dan ISO/IEC 17025 bagi perkhidmatan sedia 

ada, Nuklear Malaysia mula mengorak langkah untuk 

mendapatkan pengiktirafan sistem kualiti integrasi 

untuk pengurusan keselamatan dan kesihatan 

pekerjaan. 

Pengantarabangsaan 

Di arena antarabangsa, melalui usaha yang tidak 

mengenal erti jemu, Nuklear Malaysia telah berjaya 

mengembangkan aktiviti khidmat teknikal, 

perundingan dan latihan dengan menembusi pasaran 

baru di negara-negara Timur Tengah dan Afrika, beralih 

daripada pasaran tradisi di negara-negara anggota 

Asean seperti Brunei Darussalam, Myanmar dan 

Vietnam. Kemasukan Nuklear Malaysia ke negaranegara 

tersebut adalah sebagai titik mula untuk 

menembusi pasaran global yang lebih besar selaras 

dengan langkah-langkah mengantarabangsakan 

Nuklear Malaysia. 

Keanggotaan Malaysia dalam IAEA banyak membawa 

manfaat khususnya kepada Nuklear Malaysia dari 

aspek pembangunan kepakaran sumber manusia, 

sehingga tidak sedikit pegawai Nuklear Malaysia telah 

dilantik sebagai pakar IAEA bagi membangunkan 

prasarana sinaran dan kemudahan penyelidikan di 

negara-negara anggota. Atas kepakaran tersebut, di 

samping sikap profesionalisme dan iltizam yang tinggi, 

pegawai-pegawai Nuklear Malaysia banyak mengetuai 

projek kerjasama serantau dan sering dipilih menjadi 

pegawai penyelia latihan kepada felo IAEA. 

recognition on integrated quality system for 

occupational safety and health management. 

Internationalisation 

In the international arena, through continuous hard 

work, Nuclear Malaysia has successfully expanded 

her technical services, consultancy and training 

activities by penetrating new market in the Middle 

Eastern countries and Africa, shifting from traditional 

market in ASEAN countries such as Brunei 

Darussalam, Myanmar and Vietnam. The entry to 

these countries is a turning point for Nuclear Malaysia 

to penetrate a bigger global market as part of her 

internationalisation agenda. 

Malaysia’s membership in the IAEA has brought many 

benefits especially to Nuclear Malaysia, in the aspect 

of expertise development of human resources, as 

many of her officers has been appointed as IAEA 

experts to help develop radiation infrastructure and 

research facility of the Member States. With these 

expertise and professionalism, as well as high 

commitment, several Nuclear Malaysia researchers 

have been appointed to lead regional collaborative 

projects and frequently selected to supervise IAEA 

fellows.

TEKNOLOGI INDUSTRI 

INDUSTRIAL RESEARCH AND TECHNOLOGY 

DEVELOPMENT 

Aktiviti R&D di Nuklear Malaysia terus melangkah ke 

hadapan dengan penekanan kepada bidang-bidang 

utama, iaitu bahan istimewa, keutuhan loji dan struktur, 

polimer asli serta pembangunan kejuruteraan. R&D 

yang dijalankan adalah berorientasikan hasil, dalam 

bentuk produk, servis dan khidmat rundingan. 

Sebahagian besar daripada aktiviti ini dilaksanakan 

secara usahasama dengan organisasi lain seperti 

IAEA, Telekom Malaysia Research and Development 

(TMRD) dan Jabatan Muzium dan Antikuiti (JMA). 

Output yang diperolehi akan 

melalui mekanisme 

pemindahan 

dan 

pengkomersilan teknologi bagi 

menyumbang kepada 

peningkatan pengetahuan, 

kemajuan ekonomi dan 

kecekapan industri.Dalam 

bidang bahan istimewa, 

kerjasama R&D dengan TMRD telah berjaya 

menghasilkan produk nano gama alumina yang kini 

dalam proses pemfailan paten. Produk lain yang juga 

dalam proses pemfailan paten ialah formulasi batu-bata 

berasaskan tanah liat daripada sedimen sisa

LANGKAH KE HADAPAN 

THE WAY FORWARD 

Pelaksanaan RMK9 bermula pada 2006. YAB 

Perdana Menteri menekankan bahawa RMK9 adalah 

fasa kedua bagi mencapai Wawasan 2020 dan 

merupakan pelan pembangunan pertama dalam misi 

nasional untuk tujuan tersebut. Sehubungan ini 

Nuklear Malaysia akan terus meningkatkan 

kecemerlangan organisasi dalam usaha untuk 

merealisasikan matlamat ini. Untuk menghadapi 

cabaran dunia global dan meningkatkan 

kecemerlangan organisasi serta kecekapan sistem 

penyampaiannya, Nuklear Malaysia bercadang untuk 

menukar statusnya ke badan berkanun. Peranan 

Nuklear Malaysia akan lebih terserlah jika statusnya 

sebagai badan berkanun dapat direalisasikan. 

Pertukaran ini akan melibatkan penyediaan draf 

cadangan Akta Agensi Nuklear Malaysia dan 

pembentangannya di Parlimen untuk kelulusan. 

Status ini membolehkan Nuklear Malaysia lebih anjal 

dalam melaksanakan program pengkomersilan dan 

pemindahan teknologi serta menggalakkan minat 

keusahawanan di kalangan warganya. Ini adalah untuk 

memastikan Nuklear Malaysia terus relevan, lebih 

efisien dan efektif dalam melaksanakan tugas yang 

diamanahkan. 

Peningkatan harga minyak mentah, ketidaktentuan 

bekalan, kesan rumah hijau dan alasan strategik yang 

lain telah mendorong sebilangan negara mengkaji 

penggunaan tenaga nuklear sebagai alternatif. 

Pembangunan program kuasa nuklear akan diberikan 

tumpuan melibatkan perancangan jangka panjang 

dalam pembangunan modal insan, infrastruktur R&D, 

infrastruktur industri sokongan, perundangan dan 

peraturan kawalseliaan serta aspek penerimaan 

awam. Sehubungan itu, Nuklear Malaysia merancang 

The implementation of the 9MP began in 2006. The 

Right Honorable Prime Minister stressed that the 9MP 

is the start of the second phase of the Vision 2020, 

and as a first development plan in National Mission 

to achieve the objective. Nuclear Malaysia will strive 

to enhance organisational excellence in its endeavour 

to realise this vision.To meet the challenges in a 

globalised world, enhance organisational excellence 

and augmenting the efficiency of her delivery system, 

Nuclear Malaysia plans to change her status to that 

of a statutory body. As a statutory body Nuclear 

Malaysia can play a more significant role. This 

exercise will necessitate the preparation of a draft 

proposal of the Malaysian Nuclear Agency Act and 

its presentation in Parliament for approval. As a 

statutory body, Nuclear Malaysia will have more 

flexibility in implementing her commercialisation and 

technology transfer programme as well as promote 

entrepreneurship amongst her employees. This is to 

ensure that Nuclear Malaysia remain relevant, efficient 

and become more effective in carrying out the task 

entrusted upon her. 

The hike in crude oil price, the uncertainties in supply, 

greenhouse effect and other strategic grounds have 

spurred several countries to evaluate the use of 

nuclear power as an alternative. The development of 

nuclear power programme involves long term planning 

on the development of human capital, R&D and 

supporting industry infrastructure, legislative and 

safeguard procedures as well as public acceptance. 

In conjunction to that, Nuclear Malaysia has planned 

to acquire a new 20MW nuclear power reactor and 

nuclear fuel recycling technology facility for the 10MP 

for training purposes and as a platform to acquire

untuk memperoleh sebuah reaktor nuklear baru yang 

berkuasa 20 MW dan teknologi kitaran bahan api 

nuklear dalam RMK-10 bagi tujuan latihan dan sebagai 

asas mendapatkan kemahiran pengurusan dan 

operasi loji kuasa nuklear. Langkah selanjutnya ialah 

membuat pencirian dan pemilihan awal tapak loji jana 

kuasa nuklear serta tapak kemudahan pelupusan sisa 

radioaktif. 

Pelan tindakan strategik dan pelaksanaannya akan 

dibuat untuk mendapatkan pandangan dan menilai 

penerimaan awam yang akan dimanfaatkan dalam 

menentukan keputusan tentang jana kuasa nuklear. 

Selaras dengan persetujuan Jemaah Menteri untuk 

menukar nama MINT kepada Agensi Nuklear Malaysia 

(Nuklear Malaysia) berkuat kuasa pada September 

2006, satu pelan tindakan penjenamaan semula yang 

menyeluruh akan dilaksanakan termasuk pembinaan 

citra baru, penghebahan di peringkat kebangsaan dan 

antarabangsa, penciptaan logo baru, pembangunan 

laman web dan penyediaan bahan-bahan promosi. 

Nuklear Malaysia menyedari keperluan penyelidik 

yang kompetitif dan kepimpinan berkesan untuk 

memantapkan R&D negara. Justeru, sebuah institut 

latihan yang dikenali sebagai National Institute for 

R&D Training in Science and Technology Centre 

(NITRIC) perlu ditubuhkan untuk memenuhi keperluan 

tersebut. Institut ini nanti akan berfungsi sebagai pusat 

sehenti bagi warga penyelidikan mendapatkan latihan 

dalam bidang R&D, serta membangunkan tenaga kerja 

R&D yang kompeten, penuh tekad dan dedikasi. Buat 

permulaan NITRIC akan mendapat pelatih dari dalam 

negara sebelum diperluas kepada pelanggan luar 

negara. Pengalaman Nuklear Malaysia mengendalikan 

latihan-latihan seumpamanya ditambah dengan 

pengiktirafan IAEA ke atas Nuklear Malaysia sebagai 

Pusat Latihan Serantau bidang keselamatan sinaran 

dan Pusat Kecemerlangan Pemprosesan Sinaran 

management and operational skill of nuclear power 

plant. The next steps are the pre-characterisation and 

selection of sites for the nuclear power plant as well 

as radioactive waste disposal facility. 

Strategic actions plan and its implementation will be 

geared to gather public opinion and assessment on 

the acceptance on nuclear power that are useful in 

the decision making process. In line with the Cabinet 

decision to change MINT to a new name, known as a 

Malaysian Nuclear Agency (Nuclear Malaysia) with 

effect from September 2006, a comprehensive 

rebranding action plan will be implemented which 

includes identity building and image construction, 

publicising it locally and internationally, designing a 

new logo, developing a new website and preparing new 

promotional materials. 

Nuclear Malaysia realises the requirement for 

competitive researchers and efficient leadership to 

strenghten R&D in Malaysia. Thus, a training centre 

called as ‘National Institute for R&D Training in 

Science and Technology Centre (NITRIC)’ need to be 

established to meet the demand. It serves as a onestop-centre 

for research staff to obtain training in 

specific areas related to R&D, and to provide holistic 

and professional training to develop competent and 

determined human capital in R&D and scientific 

activities. At the early stage, NITRIC will admit locals 

before opening it doors to international participants. 

The experience of Nuclear Malaysia in handling similar 

training as well as the IAEA recognition for Regional 

Training Centre in radiation safety and Centre of 

Excellence in radiation processing, will make this 

aspiration possible. 

In a competitive global market nuclear Malaysia needs 

to consolidate her position to ensure relevancy and 

sustainability of her functions. Expansion activities 

56

memungkinkan penubuhan dan perjalanan NITRIC 

dapat dijayakan. 

Dalam pasaran global yang berdaya saing, Nuklear 

Malaysia perlu terus mengukuhkan kedudukan 

supaya fungsinya tetap relevan dan lestari. Aktiviti 

pengembangan akan terus digiatkan dengan 

memantapkan pasaran luar khususnya di negaranegara 

Asia Barat dan Afrika. Kejayaan Nuklear 

Malaysia di luar negara serta penerimaan baik negaranegara 

tersebut menjadi pemangkin bagi menembusi 

pasaran yang lebih besar. Usaha-usaha untuk 

menembusi pasaran baru di negara-negara Asia 

Tengah dan negara-negara anggota Pertubuhan 

Negara-Negara Islam (OIC) akan dibuat berasaskan 

model kejayaan berkenaan. Atas rekod cemerlang dan 

keunggulannya, Nuklear Malaysia telah ditunjukkan 

sebagai peneraju kepada beberapa projek OIC 

berkaitan bioteknologi di negara-negara anggota. Ini 

adalah sebagai permulaan bagi penglibatan serius 

Nuklear Malaysia di pentas antarabangsa. 

will be intensified through strengthening the overseas 

market especially in the West Asian and African 

countries. Nuclear Malaysia’s success as well as 

acceptance by the international community will be a 

catalyst to penetrate a bigger market. Efforts to break 

into new markets in the Central Asia and member 

countries of OIC will be taken based on the above 

success model. Nuclear Malaysia has been singled 

out as a pioneer in a few OIC projects in member 

countries, on biotechnology, based on her excellent 

and outstanding record. This will be the starting point 

for Nuclear Malaysia’s serious participation in the 

international scenario.
