Engaging in basic science research is sexy but not practical as the basis of development for the Philippines. Note that science, technology and even innovation have different goals and means and affect different constituencies and incentives or penalties, as policy areas. I believe it is in the mis-appreciation of these differences as they affect policy [...]

This hardy Filipino-fabricated machine is cause for cheer I could hardly contain my excitement at seeing a Filipino-fabricated rotary filler being set up yesterday – a working product from the minuscule Philippine machinery industry is on the ground before me! YAY! as my young friends shout. And LOL with that. Fighting against economic policies like [...]

Research and technology organizations (RTOs) are government-sponsored organizations, like the DOST in the Philippines, dedicated to implementing national science and technology policies in line with a government’s development goals. Note: This is our fifth and last post on the 6th ASIALICS held in HKUST on July 6-7 (Posts 80, 81, 82, 86 and 87).

The New York Times yesterday, July 13, 2009, reported. “Microsoft Office 2010 Starts Ascension to the Cloud.” (Click this link to NYT: http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/07/13/microsoft-office-2010-starts-ascension-to-the-cloud/?scp=1&sq=Office%202010%20cloud&st=Search). Two months ago, on May 9, I predicted that Microsoft will install browser-based version of Excel, PowerPoint, Word in my Post #53, Opportunity from Adjacency. I did make the same prediction some [...]

… I was not disappointed despite the often ponderous, academic approach. The ASIALICS Hongkong conference focused on two areas: first, University-Industry linkage with two keynotes on the China and India experience and, second, on the changing role of RTO’s especially comparing the European and East Asian (Japan, Korea, Taiwan) experiences.
