The power of science and technology in facilitating the process of rapid industrialisation was recognised in the first Five Year Plan and its importance has never diminished. The Korean Government has systematically used SET to spearhead development planning for the future. The pre-eminent position of SET was signalled by the creation of the Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) in 1967. Since then, MOST has held policy responsibility for the development and application of SET, and management of industrial and technical manpower. According to MOST?, there have been four main phases of SET development in Korea: °e In the 1960s, the focus for SET lay in building a foundation for industrialisation through the development of import-substitute industries, and the expansion of light manufacturing industries. Much emphasis was placed on scientific and technological education and the building of a technological infrastructure. The Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) was established in 1966.
