Senator Christopher “Bong” Go provided additional support to Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) graduates at the Mindtech Training and Development Institute Inc. in Pasig City on 17 May.

These scholars benefited from TESDA’s program through Go’s support.

In a video message, Go emphasized the importance of technical education as a cornerstone for building a resilient and competitive workforce.
