MSC... and now MBC... what's next on the table?

Are we trying too hard to be recognised on the world arena? huh... Previously there were MSC(Multimedia Super Corridor) and now they are pushing for MBC(Malaysia Biotech Corporation). Kind of ambitious, don't you think? Anway, I guess the writer does have some point there when she says:
"After all, the government was trying its best to make Malaysia relevant in this ever-changing world. In simpler terms, it was another major effort by the Malaysian government to catalyze economic growth. The aim is to market Malaysia's cost-competitive, skilled labor as one of the major pull factors for biotechnology firms to carry out R&D and conduct their business operations here. Essentially, it forms yet another artery of the MSC, noted an industry observer. "
But at the same time, there are a long lists of other issues that we may need to ironed out before the same repeat happened as with the MSC. Of course, we don't want that to happen, that's why I hope the relevant parties do pay attention and learn from the mistakes. If they can just do that, I think the chances of us being an attractive biotech place for investor is quite assured. Let's wait and see... as usual... over here, most of the things are unpredictable... ehehehe!!!
