THIS is the best that university professor and NCMP from WP Daniel Goh can do.
He said that science parks run the risk of becoming “enclaves”, with innovation taking place separated from the rest of society, and are “mega-ivory towers” surrounding universities such as the National University of Singapore and Nanyang Technological University.
He thinks that Jurong Innovation District, by virtue of its exclusive urban design, would become a high-tech island detached from the rest of Singapore.
Therefore he asked that R&D labs etc be decentralized and spread all over Singapore in the heartlands. In that way, innovation will be all over Singapore.
