00:09And in fact kami ay nagpapasalamat

00:11Kasi every year tumataas

00:13May exact figures buka

00:15Hindi ko matandan kung close to 30 billion

00:17Kasi before kasi 28th class lang

00:20So around 30 billion

00:22And of course

00:23Ang ating major programs would continue

00:26Kasama dyan yung mga nabanggit

00:28Kung mga nabanggit kung Small Enterprise Technology Upgrading Program

00:31Community Empowerment

00:33Nandun din ano dito

00:35Smart and Sustainable Communities

00:37Nakaset na yun dito

01:20Up to 2020

01:22It would continue

01:23Ang nabago lang siyempre

01:24Yung binanggit kung walo

01:26But the big

01:28Thrust also of the funding will be on the commercialization of the technologies

01:34Kasi nga we wanted to create wealth out of our research results

01:38So pinapalakas natin yung efforts at commercialization

01:41And matulungan natin ang mga university to really follow that path

01:47Kasi karamihan ng dulo nila is publication na unpaid

01:51So pinapalakas natin yung
