via theStar:
MOSCOW: There will be no teh tarik-making or roti canai-tossing experiments in space for our Angkasawan when he blasts off in October.
Instead, he will carry out at least 10 laboratory tests for serious research designed by 10 universities, institutes of higher education and government science agencies.
Science, Technology and Innovation Minister Datuk Seri Dr Jamaluddin Jarjis said the experiments were important as “they will have an important impact on our local food and medical industries”.
“All the experiments done in space so far are for the benefit of the countries that sponsored their scientists to fly to space.
“There have been no scientific studies in space on any Asian interest, in terms of medicine or food technology.
Thankfully somebody with brains has managed to stop us from being the butt of space jokes around the world…lol
