Since we had such a company in Vilnius, which was called “Fermentas”, then you probably know what it is. If you don’t know, that’s good too.

Because we destroyed the company, along with all our biotechnological science. We have 1900 laboratory technicians, who make a good living, serving very rich foreigners, but who are incapable of anything, contributing only 3.7 percent Lithuania’s GDP. Even for one German tank “Leopard” is not enough, we need 5 percent with pennies. Bumelis is still building a laboratory technicians' town, which will be called Bumeliukas. But there is no science. The Šiknys screams very loudly, but he doesn’t receive the Nobel Prize. There are no prospects for serious and therefore interesting work in Lithuania. Talents are fleeing.
