The local government of Cainta, Rizal has given a fresh look to the old swivel chairs donated to them by a business process outsourcing firm, saying that the 1,000 chairs will be used by the town's IT students.
"A BPO company has upgraded their chairs. They called me if I wanted to accept their old chairs. Of course, there are some flaws and minor damage," Cainta municipal administrator Keith Nieto said.
"I said I'll take care of it, we can still use them. That's 1,000 chairs. I had it taken and then I saw the damage, which were expected from wear and tear," Nieto added.
Nieto said they have bought online the chair covers for only P99 each.
"In 6 hours, all the chairs have been transformed like the brand new ones, for only 99 pesos," he said.
"These will be used by our IT students of One Cainta College," the municipal administrator added.
