Abstract
The role of S&T in the economic, social and cultural development of nations has been realized from at least the beginning of the 20th century if not even earlier. It was therefore, not surprising that as the developing countries of today who were all colonial territories in Africa and Asia of the
major imperial powers of the 19th and 20th centuries, came to acquire their political independence
starting from Indonesia in 1945 and turned their attention to their economic, social and cultural development, they strove to build up their S&T capabilities as well.
