"Innovate or DIE"
Last October l3, 2011 there was announcement that DOST will conduct a RICE ( Regional Invention Copntest and Exhibit) a contest and exhibition of invention for Calabarzon at SM City in Masinag Antipolo City. The goal probably of DOST is to let a thousand inventions bloom. Perhaps our own RBF is privy, involved in this. Now really, the news about DOST being praised by Sen Lacson, being in the forefront of innovation in the Philippines, gains further confirmation.
The rest of :PIA bulletin:
RICE participants will be treated to a three-day showcase of invention entries, proceedings of the contest proper, video presentations, poster making contests, and a forum on program assistance for inventors.
The invention contest, bears the theme, “Imbensyon at Inobasyon: Kabalikat sa Pag-unlad,” will serve as the qualifying round for the July 2012 Invention Contest, national level.

What do you think of this DOST project?
Will DOST support the inventors all the way? Or it ends at the exhibit?
What is the success rate of these inventions?
What must be done to make these inventions be commercial success; or the entrepreneurs success stories?
Is invention an innovation? Is an inventor an entrepreneur?
New ideas create more and better new products and services; create more wealth."
