China is set to become the major driving force in the biotechnology industry in Asia, an international forum was told at its opening Monday in Taipei.

Experts from the world-renowned biotech periodical, Nature, told the forum that the biotechnology industry in Asia was generally weak in infrastructure and development capacity, but China was likely to lead the industry in this region.
