Fundamental research creates a legacy for the coming generations. It is my strong belief that this nature of fundamental research justifies national support for it in which the expenses are paid out of the tax. This view is supported by papers appearing in the present issue: they propose to extend the technology-oriented national policy, conceived as a survival strategy for the country with poor natural resources, into a comprehensive security policy involving natural aspect, and discuss importance of enhanced technology transfer to Asian countries and contribution to the global community through fundamental research activities. We have seen the Fundamentals of Science and Technology Law enacted and a corresponding general plan established. However, too often in the past, apparently excellent science and technology policies did not result in exciting outcomes. Papers included in this issue argues for drastic increase in governmental support for fundamental research, which will help us attain a status of credibility in the global community, and discuss legacy creation and total security policies.
