T'erengganu Builds State Science Centre Worth RM45 Million

KUALA TERENGGANU, Aug 27 (Bernama) -- The Terengganu state government is building a science centre worth around RM45 million in Kubang Ikan, Cendering, near here.

Terengganu Creativity and Science Centre Affairs Director Dr Mohd Zaki Mohd Said said the science centre would focus more on Islamic science and was being constructed on a eight hectare site.

"It will be completed by middle of next year," he told reporters after the closing ceremony of the 2008 Terengganu Astronomy Experience Seminar at the Terengganu Islamic Affairs Department, here Wednesday.

Dr Mohd Zaki said the science centre would become a public attraction especially among school students wanting to see scientific instruments that would be on display when the centre starts its operations.
