“Sa isang Bagong Pilipinas, patuloy ang pagpapatatag ng pundasyon para sa siyensiya at teknolohiya. Patuloy ang inobasyon dahil kaalaman ang ating sandata tungo sa isang maunlad at makabagong Pilipinas (In the New Philippines, the foundation for science and technology continues to be strengthened. Innovation will be supported because knowledge is our weapon towards a prosperous and modern Philippines),” he said. (PNA)
