We used to have very strong philosopher at one time talking about the changing of mindset from weastern thinking and education focus to islamisation and eastern look. There are some activist until now but look silence. We succeded our look east policy for 30 years and may be we failed buy British last. We need to expand our new look east policy including korea, China and Japan with new approach and evaluation. Not to boycott but to chalenge out leadership in knowledge development and science and technology. We and the world know that Islamic Scientists leading the early modern development of science and technology. BUT why we are not leading now. Before Malaysia become like Iraq and Egypt, come we push forward for S&T in Malaysia.

Syed Muhammad al Naquib bin Ali al-Attas (Arabic: السيد محمد نقيب العطاس‎ Saiyid Muḥammad Naqīb al-ʿAṭṭās; born September 5, 1931) is a prominent contemporary Muslim philosopher and thinker from Malaysia. He claims to be one of the few contemporary scholars who is thoroughly rooted in the traditional Islamic sciences and who is equally competent in theology, philosophy, metaphysics, history, and literature. He considers himself to be the pioneer in proposing the idea of Islamization of knowledge. Al-Attas' philosophy and methodology of education have one goal: Islamization of the mind, body and soul and its effects on the personal and collective life on Muslims as well as others, including the spiritual and physical non-human environment. He is the author of twenty-seven authoritative works on various aspects of Islamic thought and civilization, particularly on Sufism, cosmology, metaphysics, philosophy and Malay language and literature.
