Rep. Palmones assures AGHAM’s support to Science, Engineering and Mathematics education in order to guarantee the country’s steady supply of talented S&T knowledge workers. “However, it is equally important that we create job opportunities for graduates of science and engineering,” he said. Relative to this, he has filed House Bill No. 00842 (regulating the practice of microbiology in the Philippines), House Bill No. 00844 (promoting the growth of biotechnology industry in the Philippines and the creation of wealth from biodiversity) and House Bill No. 02701 (regulating and modernizing the practice of chemistry in the Philippines).
