POLYTECHNIC UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES YEAR-END COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES 🎓
Bagamat mayroon po kaming budget hearing at sesyon ngayong araw, hindi ko po maaaring tanggihan ang imbitasyon ng Polytechnic University of the Philippines sa kanilang Year-end Commencement Exercises.
Sa 22 taon ko po na pagseserbisyo-publiko, masasabi ko po na isa sa aking pinakamalaking tagumpay bilang isang lingkod-bayan ay ang pagpapatayo ng Polytechnic University of the Philippines sa aming lungsod sa San Juan noong ako po ay naging mayor. ‘Yan po ay hanggang sa kasalukuyan ay ipinagmamalaki ko dahil napagbigyan natin na makapagtapos ang ating mga kabataan sa San Juan na hindi na kinakailangan pang pumunta sa Main Campus. At higit sa lahat, ang ating pangarap na magkaroon ng graduate sa bawat pamilya dahil naniniwala po tayo na ang kabataan ay hindi lang pag-asa ng bayan; kundi sila rin po ay maaasahan sa pagtataguyod ng ating kinabukasan. 🇵🇭
Maraming salamat po sa pamunuan ng pamantasan sa pangunguna nila PUP President Manuel Muhi, Executive Vice President Alberto Guillo, VP for Academic Affairs Emmanuel De Guzman, VP for Student Affairs and Services Tomas Testor, VP for Research, Extension, Planning and Development Anna Ruby Gapasin, VP for Branches and Satellite Campuses Pascualito Gatan, VP for Administration Adam Ramilo at Board of Regents.
Rest assured that I will remain to be an ally in advocating for the continued increase in state subsidies for state universities and colleges and for improving the welfare of the youth.
