KNOWLEDGE BASED ECONOMY
DEFINITION
“The knowledge based economy” is an expression coined to describe trends in advanced economies towards greater dependence on knowledge, information and high skill levels, and the increasing need for ready access to all of these by the business and public sectors.
- Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development
OECD, 2005, “The Measurement of Scientific and Technological Activities: Guidelines for Collecting and Interpreting Innovation Data: Oslo Manual, Third Edition” prepared by the Working Party of National Experts on Scientific and Technology Indicators, OECD, Paris, Para. 71.
The UK Department of Tradeand Industry defined K Economy as a knowledge driven economy in which the generation and exploitation of knowledge play the predominant role in the creation of wealth
(Economic ResearchServices Department, 2000)
Rationale of K- economy
1. To achieve sustainable rapid economic growth
- The knowledge based economy will complement efforts to improve economy-wide productivity through enhancement in TFP (Total Factory Productivity).
- The knowledge-based economy will also spawn new activities for investment within existing industries as well as create new industries.
- The introduction of high-technology and knowledge-intensive production processes will offer newinvestment opportunities within existing industries
2. To sustain competitiveness
- Malaysia is facing increasing competition for its labour-intensive and lower-end manufactured products from the lower-wage and resource-rich developing economies such as China, Indonesia and Thailand
-Malaysia will need undertake productivity improvements in traditional industries and at the same time, enhance its technological and knowledge capabilities to move into the midrange and higher-end products.
- It is also imperative for local industries to movealong the value chain into related upstream and downstream activities
THE STAR
PM: Government to continue with policies supporting knowledge-based economy
•The prime minister said, he believed in building a knowledge-based economy as one way for Malaysia to achieve sustainable growth and remain globally competitive
• He also mentioned that the government will focus on the social impact of the policies, and be aware of the government responsibility to ensure that the knowledge-based economy does not widen disparities between various sections of our society
KNOWLEDGE WORKER

Knowledge workers are versatile, autonomous,and highly skilled and are able to leverage andbuild knowledge to produce useful action withvery strong and analytical skills
The importance of Knowledge workers
• Key to the growth of many economies
- for example, in biotechnology manufacturing, or in
precision farming," where the amount of fertilizer
and pesticides administered to a given crop are carefully
monitored using GPS devices in tractors“
• Knowledge workers tend to be closely aligned
with the organization's growth prospects
- Knowledge workers in management roles
come up with new strategies
• Firms with the highest degree and quality of
knowledge work tend to be the fastest-growing
and most profitable
- for example, Microsoft is among the most
