THE city of Manila on Monday celebrated this year’s National Heroes' Day by organizing a job fair, a move aimed at providing “jobs and hopes” to Manila’s modern-day heroes.
Mayor Francisco “Isko Moreno” Domagoso said the activity led by the Manila Public Employment Service Office (PESO) was not only a venue to open doors to employment opportunities for job seekers but also a commemoration.
“Sa Araw ng mga Bayani, trabaho’t pag-asa ang hatid ng PESO (This National Heroes Day, PESO brings jobs and hope)," Domagoso said, asking job hunters around the city to join.
Domagoso added that this day is not just about paying tribute to the country’s brave forebears but also to modern-day heroes, including overseas Filipino workers (OFWs).
