Malaysian Research Data Repositories
MOSP is already connected to the Open Government Data portal by MAMPU and Raw Database for Research and Science (RADARS) by MASTIC. Currently, ten research areas are available at MOSP involving biology, chemistry and mathematical sciences; physics, engineering and material science; agricultural, veterinary and food science; computer science, information technology and telecommunications; medicine and health sciences; climate, environment and biodiversity; energy; business, finance and economics; language and education; arts and social sciences.
History of MOSP
Open Science is a growing movement to make scientific research and data accessible to all. The international principle of making research data findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable (FAIR) will not only democratise knowledge; it will reinforce open scientific inquiry and integrity, enable better research management, and promote data-intensive research. Integrating the diverse data streams and huge datasets across multiple disciplines offers unprecedented insights and solutions towards local, regional and global complex challenges.
Recognising the importance of harnessing the potential impact of Open Science, the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MOSTI) and the Academy of Sciences Malaysia (ASM) is paving the way towards realising Malaysia Open Science Platform (MOSP) as a strategic transformative initiative to strengthen STI Collaborative Ecosystem for Malaysia. This initiative aims to make Malaysia’s research data as a valuable national asset by developing a trusted platform that enables accessibility and sharing of research data aligned to national priorities and international best practices.
