How About Astronomy? Astonomical heritage has been recorded in many ways not only in the erasfrom Baghdad to Granada and the Copernican Revolution and the inquisition of Galilei, but also in the mist of antiquity. More importanly is to usher astronomy as the spearhead of scientific endeavours

Daldjoeni & Hidayat (1985): it has been shown by Aveny(1981) that the development indigenous astronomical system in tropical cultures,whether the motive was religious or practical, centered toward a reference system consisting of zenith and nadir as poles and the horizon as a fundamental reference circle. Such a refernce system differs remarkably to the celestial pole-equator(or ecliptic) systems employed by civilizations in temperate zone. ELEMENTS OF NATURE air fire water soil

Wicramsinghe (2009) ..many ancients philosophies and beliefs such as the doctrine of spontaneous generation were abandonded through the progress of science, but the origin of life from non living organic matter remains an unsolved problem even to the present day. Recognize indigenous knowledge-as a common heritage of humankind-many of its features could be key elements of sustainable development strategies Innovative approaches to international S&T cooperation-primacy of south-south cooperation Alliance to build capacities for the generation,infusion,and absorption of technologies in real time Establish BANK to which patents can be assigned for public good, peace and happiness.

THE ROLE OF SCIENCE IS TO ILLUMINATE POLITICAL CHOICES, NOT TO ENFORCE THEM The system however,does not stand alone, it depends on the inputs and flow of incoming, open minded, students. Therefore to face such a future the ethos for educating young people must be cultivated. These include activities of education at all level prior to tertiary-level with the aim Confidence (alone) does not make trend. Fanatism sometime counter productive High-morale: Deep-seated personal identification to produce discovery and aesthetic satisfaction are objective realities Contributes of 1. 2. 3. 4.

To recognize that our society needs human talents and of a wide variety. It is essential that every that individual be given the maximum opportunity in develop his or her particular talents. To understand that the advances of science and technology need speciality to the end and that all citizens of modern society acquire reasonable understanding of these subjects and those with special talents in these fields have full opportunity to develop his or her talents in order to survive in an ever competing surroundings.

SPEAKING FOR THE UNDERPRIVILEGED 1. Social transition : race to future 2. Technological transition : finding talents at mass level (vs.individual) 3. Institutional transition : To address global cooperation in communication and environtmental problem-solving 4. Economic transition Large for space science V A VIEW OF SCIENTIFIC COOPERATION Regional Cooperation Scientific collaboration for the benefit of : Concerned parties Wider scientific circles Make benefit of : Existing good sites Facilities Man-power Scientific man-power development programs LINKING WITH INTERNATIONAL (FUNDING) ORGANIZATIONS Advantage Enchance local scientist capacity Strengthen their intitution

SCIENTIFIC LITERACY: CANNOT BE IGNORED Scientific literacy is the capacity to use scientific knowledge, to identify questions and to draw evidence-based conclusios in order to understand and help make decisions about the natural world and the changes made to it through human activity.
