Science is the engine of prosperity -- 

Ilmu pengetahuan science adalah mesin kemakmuran sebuah bangsa

" Science is the engine prosperity everything we see around us wealth is a product of science. Take a look at physics alone, in the cinema, television, the embedded radio radar microwaves and GPS system. World-wide-web GPS, space program, MRI machines and testing machine so the product we bought for health are the accumulating wealth we see around us comes from science however politicians don't know this politicians are in the main former lawyers in law everything the zero-sum game of taking other people money. The policies lawyer and politician made are a zero-sum game  for protecting private investments. Politicians from the lawyers that lead our nations does not come from school of science but make policy and tax and planning the budget just to take other from the same pie of budget even the budget pie for science project become thinner. Just making policy for taxing richest who has the same pie budget. Science is looking for more bigger pie by creating wealth-ness, health-ness. I believe that science is the engine of prosperity, that if you look around at the wealth of civilization today, it's the wealth that comes from science." Michio Kaku 

For example Indonesian, Traffic Jam in Jakarta, contractor and local government in Jakarta did not create standard that involved hiring Traffic Engineer but using Polices and Pamong Praja to just give signs and wonders.  Road Repair Contractor are bending iron line and cutting the iron on the road and it takes times to repair roads so traffic are accumulated. 

Jakarta does not know how to use sign road and traffic engineer  to efficiency road users.

The Best American Science Writing 2012 is yet another endlessly fascinating and mind-expanding installment of the popular science series that Kirkus Reviews calls, “Superb braincandy.” Edited by renowned theoretical physicist and bestselling author Michio Kaku, co-founder of string field theory, this collection contains the most engaging and provocative science writing of the year—gathering in one volume enthralling and eye-opening essays about the latest developments in biochemistry, physics, astronomy, genetics, evolutionary theory, cognition, and more

Space elevators. Internet-enabled contact lenses. Cars that fly by floating on magnetic fields. This is the stuff of science fiction—it’s also daily life in the year 2100.

Renowned theoretical physicist Michio Kaku details the developments in computer technology, artificial intelligence, medicine, space travel, and more, that are poised to happen over the next hundred years. He also considers how these inventions will affect the world economy, addressing the key questions: Who will have jobs? Which nations will prosper? Kaku interviews three hundred of the world’s top scientists—working in their labs on astonishing prototypes. He also takes into account the rigorous scientific principles that regulate how quickly, how safely, and how far technologies can advance. In Physics of the Future, Kaku forecasts a century of earthshaking advances in technology that could make even the last centuries’ leaps and bounds seem insignificant

 

This work is the joint product of an academician and a business practitioner, both of whom share a concern about the inadequacy of current business models and practices. It examines the business environment and explores the underlying drivers - the "Engines of Prosperity" - that set the rules of competitive rivalry. It provides advice for managers on how to operate in a world characterized by Information Age technology, rapid change, deepening global linkages, increasing returns to sale, and the continuous unbundling of value chains.
