Department of Science and Technology (DOST) Secretary Mario G. Montejo recently told DOST scholars to “equip themselves with more knowledge… (and) strengthen their belief that science and technology would make a huge difference to improve the lives of every Filipino.”

During the recent scholars conference held at Hotel Jen in Pasay City, Sec. Montejo stressed that science and technology remains to be the important engine of the country. It is S&T that drive industry competitiveness, accelerate the delivery of government services, and enhance the country’s capacity in emerging technologies, he said.
