''All the way from Jakarta to Serpong, one of which I speak with the Research and Technology is not menyambungnya between the results of research with community needs. This occurs in many areas,''said the vice president.

But in conversations with the Minister of Research and Technology, Suharna Surapranata, in the car, both of them understand ketidaknyambungan technologies. VP even consider, now all engaged in the research just busy making and writing tasks.

However, he added, if not associated with what is needed it will not be useful. One example, he said, in agriculture.
