Yuan Gwo-fang says self-confidently that compared with other countries with rich microbiological resources, Taiwan has a reasonable level of scientific and technical development. Biotechnology researchers should pay attention to our native resources and develop new products from them. Otherwise if we merely snatch a little material from other countries to research, we are unlikely to produce useful results.
自信的袁國芳表示，與其他微生物資源豐富的國度相較，台灣的科技發展有一定水準，生物技術研究人員應重視本土資源，從中去開發新產品，否則與國外搶一點點材料做研究，難有成果。
