on 24 April 2013 Malaysian visit to promote cooperation in many fields The MoU creates a platform for cooperation between the two institutions in a wide range of areas, including faculty, staff and student exchanges, collaboration in research, joint programmes of studies and exchange of academic intellectual property.  The Poly recently hosted a delegation from the Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS) during a meeting in which representatives of the two institutions discussed the possibility of expanding the areas of cooperation in their existing partnership. The meeting followed the establishment of a formal relationship between the two institutions after Prof Tjama Tjivikua, Poly Rector, and UNIMAS Vice- Chancellor, Professor Datuk Dr Khairuddin Ab Hamid, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in November 2012. Since the signing, the two institutions have primarily cooperated in the area of Information Technology, specifically the development and use of Information Communication Technology (ICT) for use in rural communities. During the visit, Professor Datuk Dr Ab Hamid was accompanied by Professor Dr Peter Songan, UNIMAS Vice- Chancellor for Research and Innovation, Associate Professor Dr Alvin Yeo, Director of the Institute of Social Informatics and Technology Innovation at UNIMAS, and Datin Dayang Maryani Abang Zain. Prof Tjivikua gave a presentation on the Poly and said that there is a large scope for cooperation between the two institutions. Some of the areas he emphasised included renewable energy, ICT policy and regulation, wild animal tracking technology, indigenous medicine and business science. Source: Polytechnic of Namibia
