MALAYSIAN TECHNOLOGY STRATEGIC OUTLOOK 2019/2020

The VCR became obsolete before many of us learned how to program one. And who knew that working with atoms and molecules would become the future of technology?

New technology is not all about replacing the current technology but to make life better. Either ancient or modern technology, it is all but creating more of something and doing it more efficiently so that more people can benefit.

While the traditional way of doing things improves our quantity of life, future technology will improve our quality of life. When we think about 2050 it seems like it is aged from now, and we imagine an altered world, but it is only 30 years from now, and we can already know what will be possible to have by that time. We have significant environmental, social problems and let’s see how technology may solve them by 2050. We are privileged to be living in a time when science and technology can assist us, make our lives easier and rethink the way we go about our daily lives. The technology we are already exposed and accustomed to have paved the way for us to innovate further, and this list of current and future technologies certainly has the potential to change our lives even more.
