The LSTFI taskmaster, in his part, accentuated the need for functional organizations that would help in advocating science and technology in the region. His organization is among those that endeavors to aid in transforming the potentials of scientific and technological advances into benefits of greater impact for the greater portion of society.responding to the idea of impending food and fuel crisis, he stressed the need to act with urgency as he encouraged everyone to "better fast track our technology especially in increasing the rice yield in order to address the looming rice shortage in the country today. In the same manner we have to hurry up the production of alternative fuel to alleviate the price increase in oil."
Citing the report form the SONA of President Arroyo on availability of amazing rice production technology that could produce 96 cavans per hectare, Dr. Lumen speculated of a bright future full of hope "as new ideas, new concepts, new technologies being practiced by some of [our creative minds] who have the gifts and who have the technology," would emerge to help in addressing our society's common problems.
The LSTFI president ended his message by greeting the DOST-8 and the entire agency for its 50 years of existence.
