A former colleague is asking for referrals to help DOLE with the streamlining of the “Alien Employment Permit.” He’s looking to build a new team.

Please DM me, if you are interested. Kindly send me a CV/resume which, with your permission, I’ll send to this DOLE Usec. Thanks!

Our Jesuit Fathers often reminded us that we “should go where there is most need.” Part of this is accepting that “I am no longer needed here” (or at least, not for the time being). 🙏🏼

God-willing, this is the prayer that will lead me elsewhere next year. Amen.

🆕The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities has now been ratified by 192 countries and one regional organization. Pointing to a world facing crises, from climate change and conflict to a global surge in the cost of living, @UN Secretary-General @antonioguterres said “too often, living with a disability means living in a world designed by and for others. Luckily, it is possible to redesign the world.” Read more: https://t.co/8ZkOXLXOVl

Education support where it matters most.

As Senate President Pro Tempore and principal sponsor and author of Senate Bill No. 1894, I co‑presided over the bicameral conference that adopted the reconciled measure strengthening the Universal Access to Quality Tertiary Education Act. The bill ensures automatic Tertiary Education Subsidy support for Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) graduates and other disadvantaged learners, expands allowances for books, transport, computers, and housing, and requires Equity and Inclusion Plans to guarantee fair access for students from low‑income families and those with disabilities.

This measure moves us closer to an education system that uplifts the most vulnerable and gives every Filipino learner a fair chance to pursue higher education and build a better future.

@loren_legarda @pjudeacidre Senators @bamaquino @WinGatchalian74 thank you for helping to lead these efforts to pass E-GASTPE. As Sec MonJ used to say, government service truly is a relay race. We’re confident that you and your colleagues and counterparts will carry this to the finish line! 🙏🏼

[Marco A.L. V. Sardillo III @MarcoSardillo]

@loren_legarda We heard the good news po, Sen. Loren—that you have instructed the convening of the Bicam for E-GASTPE! 🙏🏼 Maraming salamat po sa pagsusulong ng reporma para sa ating mga mag-aaral! 👏🏼 @pjudeacidre “Student First Coalition” is looking forward to celebrating this accomplishment!

Sa pagtanggap ko ng tungkuling mamuno bilang Chairperson ng Senate Committee on Basic Education, agad akong nakipagpulong sa Second Congressional Commission on Education (EDCOM II) bilang Co-Chairperson upang talakayin ang kalagayan ng ating mga paaralan, mga guro, mga mag aaral, at ang mas malawak na komunidad na nakapaligid sa sektor ng edukasyon. Naniniwala ako na basta nasa puso ang gawa, nagiging matibay ang ating panata sa paglilingkod.

Ipapatuloy ko ang mga reporma sa edukasyon, at gagawin ko ang lahat ng makakaya upang maisulong ang mga hakbang tungo sa mas inklusibo at makatarungang sistema. Para sa akin, ang tunay na tagumpay ay nasusukat sa kung paano natin naiaangat ang kalidad ng pagtuturo at pagkatuto, at kung paano natin napapalakas ang pundasyon ng kinabukasan ng ating bansa.

@theannasu I truly am sorry for your—and based on what you wrote, the world’s—loss.

The President, Mayor Moreno, Cong. Joel Chua and I went around the evacuation center housing the fire victims from last Saturday's big fire in Binondo. We made sure all the family support kits, food and cash assistance distributed in a timely manner.

[Marco A.L. V. Sardillo III @MarcoSardillo]

@loren_legarda @pjudeacidre on behalf of “Student First Coalition,” we hope and pray po that the Bicameral Conference Committee can convene to finalize the “E-GASTPE” before Congress adjourns. 🙏🏼 @WinGatchalian74 @bamaquino @ChelDiokno @senatorjoelv @senatePH @CongRomanRomulo

My column today: We have this never-ending paradox of college graduates struggling to find jobs while industries struggle to find job applicants with the skills they need. There is a structural failure in the education-to-employment pipeline. https://t.co/u06xYC0XXr

Praying to the LinkedIn gods that my post will actually yield some referrals/leads to opportunities overseas. 🙏🏼🤞🏼

Sec @sonnyangara on behalf of “Advocates of Inclusion,” we just wanted to urge the issuance of DepEd’s Department Order, re: “Amended MPSS.” We note its significance in advancing the agenda for accessibility and disability inclusion (and the fact that it is critical to PSIP). 🙏🏼

I really should have written that paper on historiography, many years ago.

A few weeks ago, while at an art gallery, I told my friends: someday, long after I’m gone, I hope that one of my artworks will be exhibited here. Today, I got this email. (On a serendipitous note, when I said that, I was thinking of this particular artwork! 🥹🤯)
