Ministry of Education (MOE) gives great emphasis to natural
science and technology, since they can surely bring economic
development to the country.
It is believed that natural science (physics, chemistry, biology,
geology etc) play great role for innovation/discovery of new things
that are very essential to the country.
In physics there are so many innovations in the world including
