Insights | Malaysian scholar praises China's 'teaching people to fish' approach in promoting knowledge transfer

Malaysia can learn from China in high-tech fields, not only by acquiring technological equipment but also by focusing on talent development and technology transfer, said Kenneth Lee Tze Wui, head of the Department of Mass Communication at the Faculty of Creative Industries, Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman (UTAR) in Malaysia, during an exclusive interview with China News Network. 

Lee mentioned that last year, UTAR received multiple invitations from Chinese universities for academic symposiums. He praised the Chinese government's efforts in promoting global knowledge transfer through academic cooperation with neighboring countries, citing the proverb, "Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime."
