Good day! I am working for the LGU of San Pedro, Laguna, and we are currently participating in the annual Cities and Municipalities Competitiveness Index (CMCI) for year 2022. One of the indicators required is under the Innovation Pillar, which is a new pillar for this year.
This indicator is called "Number of Research and Development Centers in the Locality". The regional CHED does not have the data, but rather, I read that one of the sources is from the DOST. I could not contact the regional DOST through their provided e-mail in the website, as G-Mail would not recognize it.
Thank you!
