San Jose, Antique - The Department of Science and Technology Regional Office VI through the Antique Provincial Science and Technology Center granted technical assistance to six micro small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) with under its Small Enterprise Technology Upgrading Program (SETUP).

The golden age of Philippine textile has indeed come.

For the past 50 years, the Philippine Textile Research Industry (PTRI), an attached agency of the Department of Science and Technology (DOST), has taken the lead in weaving the threads of change in the textile industry through the infusion of science and technology to innovate on the use of tropical fibers, natural dyes, and  modified traditional handlooms, among others.

Someday, each Department of Science and Technology (DOST) agency will have an information kiosk containing information on all basic DOST services. At the same time, an online one-stop portal will be available where services offered by all DOST agencies will be searchable.  Plus, guidebooks, directories, brochures, and maps will be available as well.
With all these tools, DOST information officers and the rest of the workforce will be more responsive and accurate when responding to inquiries about DOST services  whether or not the inquiry is about their own agency’s products and services.

The quick response is expected to lead to a higher level of client satisfaction and trust for DOST.
