As part of her "Caravan for National Unity," President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo visited today another barangay in the vicinity of Malacaņang, turned over "PGMA Training for Work Scholarship" certificates and distributed groceries.
The President personally turned over 100 such certificates provided by the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) to Barangay chairperson Gisela Guevarra for distribution to her constituents at Barangay 638, Zone 65, 5th Street, San Beda Subdivision, Manila.
The certificates are applicable only on such courses as welding and call center training as well as finishing courses in the amount of P5,000 with a duration of 100 hours and valid until December 2007.
The President also gave a Certificate to Operate a Tindahan Natin outlet to Guevarra.
She greeted the salespersons of Botika ng Barangay provided by the Department of Health and the interactive kiosk for on-line application set up by the Department of Labor and Employment.
At the informal barangay interaction, she instructed Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) chairman Bayani Fernando to rehabilitate a post light metering and street lightings before the election ban starts on Feb. 13.
She also asked the MMDA to de-clog the drainage along 3rd and 4th Streets and put up security gates across C.M. Recto Avenue.
The President thanked the barangay residents for their warm accommodation, treating them as neighbors in the Malacanang complex.
