        EDUCATION

            Education  must  be  within  the  reach  of  every  family,  especially
        the  poor. As  we  continue  to  raise  our  competence  in producing  more
        successful scholars, we concentrated on this scheme by providing the right
        financial plan for a scholarship program from which over 2,000 students in
        government-owned and private colleges are current beneficiaries.
            On the other hand, our yearly Special Program for the Employment of
        Students (SPES) summer job package remains to provide a noble benefit
        for each poor but deserving student in quest of a better future.
