2. why Particle physics Fundamental
– humanness – understand our place and function in universe
Frontier
– beyond stamp-collecting
– basis for future technology
Cutting edge
– enabling technologies pushed to extremes

3. why Malaysia Internationalization – global village Strategic
– display significance in S & T
– S & T producer
Capacity building
– world-class scientific and technical skills

4. why roadmap Sustainability – sustained funding – institutional support
– planning critical mass

5. how - strategy Consolidate current strengths Venture into new areas
Communication, education, outreach

6. what To achieve in 10-20 years
Supersymmetry – yes / no
Understanding what is Dark matter, Dark energy
Understanding Hadron structure from partons
Fast electronics for data capture with applications
Advanced detectors for biomolecular studies, medical imaging/dosimetry
Big data analysis and use in finance, internet data
New methods and algorithms for High performance & distributed computing
Extensive media material for communicating, education and outreach
Metaphysics: relating to philosophical and religious cosmology

7. experimental High energy frontier LHC (CMS), ILC, VLHC
High intensity frontier
