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.
