Abstract :
Since the rapid emergence of foresight in the 90s, Malaysia has involved in such practices. However, little is known about Malaysia´s foresight initiative. The foresight initiative conducted by Malaysia since its inception in 1997 until Malaysia´s first technology foresight initiative at the national level in 2010 does not clearly show its position of its foresight initiative. The details of it and the way it is utilized are unknown at this point. This research aims to address this by providing a case study of foresight in Malaysia.
