As one of the founding members of the Malaysia Quantum Information Initiative (MyQI), he advises government ministries and agencies, delivering on average two talks every month across academic institutions, government bodies, and conferences on Quantum Technology throughout Malaysia and Asia.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Since 2024, Yap has engaged with key Malaysian entities, including the Ministry of Digital, the Ministry of Higher Education, the Ministry of Science, Technology, and Innovation, and multiple national bodies with respect to quantum science and technology, such as the establishment of Malaysia Quantum Valley in the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ). He is also one of the key figures in organizing the ASEAN Quantum Summit 2025, spreading awareness of quantum in the region.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Yap\u2019s work has been instrumental in raising national awareness of quantum technologies and building connections between research, policy, and industry. His efforts in coordinating Malaysia\u2019s quantum community and policy and facilitating regional collaborations have all contributed to the country\u2019s quantum initiatives and positioned Malaysia in the global quantum ecosystem.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_row et_pb_row_2  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et_block_row\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_column_1_2 et_pb_column et_pb_column_3  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et_block_column\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_image et_pb_image_1\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2025\/12\/DR-YAP-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"DR YAP 2\" class=\"wp-image-16430\" \/><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_column_1_2 et_pb_column et_pb_column_4  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et-last-child et_block_column\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_image et_pb_image_2\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2025\/12\/DR-YAP-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"DR YAP 3\" class=\"wp-image-16429\" \/><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":12876,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-16386","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/16386","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12876"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16386"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/16386\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16436,"href":"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/16386\/revisions\/16436"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/csnano\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16386"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
