Abstract

ABSTRACT 

Over the past three decades, nuclear technology has gained stability in the country, with development of main infrastructures, both technical and administrative, in place. In this paper, we present an overview of the development of nuclear technology in Malaysia after 2008. We found that, with regards to technical sectors, the use of nuclear technology in medical sector outweighed the non-medical sector for seven consecutive years since 2009.
