Balanga City, Bataan—Vice Gov. Cris Garcia is putting a premium on education, as manifested in resolutions adopted by the Sangguniang Panlalawigan through her leadership.
The SP recently adopted two resolutions authorizing Gov. Abet Garcia to enter into an agreement with the Bataan Peninsula State University for the “Gurong Iskolar ng Bataan” and Post Graduate Scholarship programs.
Last year, the SP passed a resolution granting financial assistance to poor and deserving graduates who are residents of the province for their review of board and bar examinations.
Before becoming vice governor, Garcia was the original coordinator of the Iskolar ng Bataan and Gurong Iskolar ng Bataan. She now serves as adviser of the program.
Representing Gov. Abet Garcia, she regularly attends important activities of the Iskolar ng Bataan and recently welcomed the 5,654 new beneficiaries of the program.
Two weeks ago, the vice governor distributed checks to 30 Tesda recipients also under the program.
