Socorro Galanto, TESDA provincial chief said the ISDTLC will address the need for technical skills among various stakeholders in the municipality.

She added that the ISDTLC will also assist the villagers in venturing into various business endeavors to uplift their economic status.

"We have visited a possible area for this project in Bambang and our local officials are very supportive because it will benefit their constituents," Galanto said.

She further said that the marginalized sector and farmers will benefit from the project through the provision of scholarship grants and other assistances.

The project, Galanto said will be carried out with the initial construction of a two-classroom training center, an administrative office and a demonstration farm.

For his part, Mayor Pepito Balgos, urged the TESDA officials that the project could best be erected at the Agri-Tourism and Learning Site located as the activities of their demonstration farm are similar with the agency's project proposal. (MDCT/BME/PIA 2-Nueva Vizcaya)
