Introduction
The Science and Technology Policy is the sixth of the nine challenges from Vision 2020 emphasized the objective that is to create a scientific oriented and a progressive Malaysian society. Science and technology could aid development in our current economy. The demand for science and technology is irrefutable, as we need new technology to increase our productivity and to maximize the efficiency of our industry and agriculture sectors. In recent year, efforts and initiative of The Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MOSTI) continue to focus on strengthening S&T capability and capacity to support productivity and improve competitiveness. In this regards, various activity and program have been identify to increase the diffusion and application of technology, promote commercialization of research and expand S&T human resource of the country.

Objective
Thus on April 1986, the Science and Technology policy is
declared and its main objective is to encourage the usage of science and technology to help develop our economy, to secure the well-being of the society and to protect the sovereign of our country. The plan to build the capability to develop science and technology is divided into two parts:Thus on April 1986, the Science and Technology policy is
1. Developing resources of science and technology potential likes energy technique, scientific, research institution, high education institution and other that creating potential local technology.
2. Developing local entrepreneur’s potential in selecting, negotiating, permeate and innovation of foreign technology which entry our country by corporation agreement, direct purchasing, technique corporation, project joint venture, and lessen or franchise consumption.
Implementation
Strategies and programmers are aimed for the development of comparative advantage in the production of goods and services with several strategies. One of the strategies is the government has allocated RM4146 million to the National Implementation and Development of Science Committee in the Fifth Malaysia Plan. Other than that is the government has allocated RM600 million for Research and Development (R&D) in the Malaysia Plan. Beside that, a scheme known as the Intensification of Research in Priority Areas is implemented to regulate R&D of all institution to develop capacity of our local technology. Another committee formed the Development of Industrial Technology Action Plan to support the implementation of Main Industrial Plan.

Conclusion
The Science and Technology Policy are responsible for the planning and drafting of basic science and technology policies. The Bureau is also responsible for the formulation of research programs and promotion of research evaluation, training of researchers and technicians, regional science and technology promotion, increasing the understanding of science and technology. Science and technology have a pervasive influence over a wide range of issues confronting the nation. Decision on how much federal funding to invest in research and development (R&D), and determining what programs have the highest priority, for example, may have implications for homeland security, new high technology industries, and Government and Private Sector Corporation in R&D.
