Academic achievement in Malaysia and rewarding procedures still need to be improved. Many professors just copy ideas and research from overseas.

Eg. one project on composting using microorganisms started from PhD then continue program with old professor/supervisor, and established project in Malaysia by the Professor A. The project silent for 20 years. suddenly another professor C look at the project and proposed to have collaboration with local authority and recognised the project as a green project by local authority. The project became popular and recognised by many, the Professor A is promoted. Professor C who organised, linked and managed for recognition was not in the picture at all. Some time we need to learn history. doctor diagnose disease based on symptoms and history, Engineer build building study soil structure and history, teachers teaching students always look at the background of the students and their history, head of the department and minister also need to ask for the history of success instead of just cutting ribbon or officiate the ceremony.
