8. Relationship of Research & Mankind Problems
The development of the society
from its simple to its complex state will
reveal the many and varied problems
which afflict human kind.
Thus, solutions to problems must be
based on knowledge, not on mere beliefs,
guesses or theories. To acquire knowledge
and to continuously evaluate its accuracy
and usefulness requires a well planned and
systemic procedure on which research has
been devised to meet this need.

9. Research is a human device
invented and developed not only to
push far the limit the human knowledge
but to improve the quality of individual
and group life.
This underscores the importance
of research, the continued existence
and relevance of which will last as long
as there is human being who wishes to
expand his knowledge and
understanding about the world and
everything therein.
