Bio Malaysia Expo 2006

Hi,

was at the KLCC Convention Centre for the Bio Malaysia Expo 2006. the expo was not that big as it covered only two exhibition hall. Hall 4 and Hall 5.

One interesting product is called SOS (Save Our Soil) Soil Tonic, by this Equator Life Science Berhad. They have an interesting technology called BioSmart ICT (Instant Composting Technology). Those that have oil palm plantation and an palm oil mill would be highly recommended to have this technology. Very efficient system which requires 1,000 sq m (0.1 ha) but the investment is approx. USD $1 million.

Output is like below :-

Then i went over to another interesting booth :-
Universiti Malaysia Sabah - Borneo Marine Research Institute.

Talk to a professor there about the chance of me doing practical there when i have my aquaculture project running. he gave me a positive reply and told me please write in to me and i will try my best to accommodate you.
