HOSTING

The hosting of the Exhibition in Malaysia will create public awareness especially among the dynamic youth of Malaysia as 68 percent of the Nation's 23 million population fall within this age group and they will be the future leaders of the nation.

This group must be made fully aware of the immense invaluable contribution of Nobel Laureates and inspire them to strive for scientific excellence.

This exhibition is sure to set the stage for Malaysia to embrace a culture of creativity.

All Malaysians are deeply proud and honoured that Malaysia has been bestowed the privilege and responsibility of hosting the Centennial Exhibition of the Nobel Prize 1901-2001 themed “Cultures of Creativity”.

This is all the more important because Malaysia will be the only South East Asian country and the third country in Asia to host the exhibition to date.

The Nobel Prize Centennial Exhibition - Kuala Lumpur 2004 will be an event not just for Malaysia but for the 10-member Association of Southeast Nations (ASEAN) as well as many interested members from the Asia and Pacific Region.
