International International CooperationCooperation

Genomics/biotech, nanotech and communicationsBandwidth-intensive research applications are: • Cosmology & astrophysics (with Au, Kr, many in the U

S, including Hawaii)• High Energy Physics (with US, JP, CERN)• Synchrotron Radiation (KEK & Spring8 of JP, multi-sit

es in the US)• Seismology research (with US, Jp, Asian countries in th

e fault lines)• Genome research and access to genomic databanks and

protein databases (US, Jp, Sg, Uk, Ch…)

Our Goals

• Data Center of an e-Government to alleviate the disaster of an e-Earthquake.

• International cooperation (e-Marriage) on Biomedical, Nano, Environmental Research.

• Convert data into knowledge (Knowledge Platform), and better yet, into solution so to become a Total Solution Provider.

All these made possible by Broadband Network!

Our Common Goals

Science has no generation gap.Humanity has no national divide.

Thank You!
