Gatchalian: Swift Action Needed on President's Directive in Upgrading School Services

"Sa paghahatid ng edukasyon, hindi sapat na meron tayong mga classroom. Kailangang tiyakin din nating may kuryente, tubig, at internet para sa kaligtasan, kaginhawaan, at epektibong pagkatuto ng mga mag-aaral. Mahalaga ring tutukan natin ang nutrisyon dahil may kaugnayan ito sa kakayahan ng mga batang matuto.

Let me reiterate my previous proposals such as public-private partnerships and a counterpart program, where the national government and local government units (LGUs) share the cost of building basic education facilities. If we will continue with our business-as-usual approach, the education crisis will persist."
