PINIRMAHAN na ni Pangulong Ferdinand Marcos Jr. ang bagong batas na “Trabaho Para sa Bayan Act” na naglalayong tugunan ang unemployment at underemployment at iba pang hamon sa sektor ng paggawa.
Layon ng Senate Bill no. 11962 na pangunahing akda ni Senate Majority Joel Villanueva, na palakasin ang employability at competitiveness ng Pinoy workers sa pamamagitan ng upskilling at reskilling initiatives.
Gayundin ang pagsuporta sa micro, small at medium enterprises at industry stakeholders.
Nakasaad din sa “Trabaho Para sa Bayan Act” ang paglikha ng trabaho para sa Bayan Inter-Agency Council na pamumunuan ng Director General ng National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) at ang co-chairman nito ay ang kalihim ng Department of Labor and Employment o DOLE at Department of Trade and Industry (DTI).
Sila rin ang babalangkas ng isang master plan para sa employement generation at recovery.
Kaagad naman ipinag-utos ni Marcos na balangkasin ang implementing rules and regulations para agad na mapakinabangan ng mga manggagawa.
Ayon sa Pangulo, sa pamamagitan ng bagong batas ay mabubuksan sa mga Filipino ang bagong yugto para sa sapat at de kalidad na trabaho para sa lahat.
NANGAKO si Pangulong Ferdinand Marcos Jr. na paiigtingin ng pamahalaan ang pagsisikap nito na tiyakin ang ‘proactive farming’ sa bansa.
Ito ang sinabi ni Pangulong Marcos sa kanyang talumpati na binasa ni Department of Agriculture Senior Undersecretary Domingo Panganiban sa idinaos na ika-51 taong anibersaryo ng National Food Authority.
“I share with you our high hopes in the success of the SARAI Project—or the Smarter Approaches to Reinvigorate Agriculture as an Industry in the Philippines Project,” ayon kay Pangulong Marcos.
“Through this, we will be intensifying our efforts in providing smart and sustainable solutions for a more productive and proactive farming. Likewise, I am optimistic in the positive impacts that will be carried out by the NFA Modernization Program,” dagdag na wika nito.
Inamin ng Punong Ehekutibo na nito lamang nakalipas na buwan ay maituturing na talagang isang malaking hamon para sa sektor ng agrikultura.
“However, we continue to find the best solutions to the issues that we face without compromising the needs of our farmers and retailers,” ani Pangulong Marcos.
“We continue to relentlessly strive to bolster the agriculture sector to increase our local food production and supply,” aniya pa rin.
Binanggit ng Chief Executive na gumagawa na ng agresibong hakbang ang pamahalaan para mapagaan ang epekto ng mga bagay-bagay na may kinalaman sa ‘price stability’ ng mga pangunahing bilihin lalo na ng bigas.
Samantala, ipinag-utos naman ni Pangulong Marcos ang pagpapalakas sa law-enforcement activities laban sa mga smugglers, hoarders, at mga nagpapahina sa pagsisikap ng gobyerno na siguraduhin ang food security. (Daris Jose)
BINIGYAN ng isang bonggang pag-welcome at the same time, contract signing si Carla Abellana ng bago niyang management, ang All Access to Artists Ph o Triple A Management.
Present sa naging pag-welcome at contract signing ni Carla ang mga bosses ng Triple A sa pangunguna ni Direk Mike Tuviera. Gayundin si Ms. Jacqui Cara at Jojo Oconer. Nando’n din si Ms. Celeste Tuviera na unang nag-interview kay Carla.
May title si Carla na ‘The Goddess of Drama.’ At sabi naman ni Carla, ang GMA-7 rin daw ang nagbigay sa kanya ng monicker na ‘yon.
“I believe, from GMA po ‘yan. Nagsimula po ‘yan sa Primetime Goddess. Hindi ko nga po alam, sabi ko nga po, saan ba galing ang Primetime Goddess na ‘yan. Pero, nagsimula po sa GMA po ‘yan at lagi na po name-mention sa GMA kapag meron pong teleserye.
“So, medyo tumatak po siya. Nag-iiba-iba from time-to-time. Naging Primetime Goddess, Drama Goddess. And I think, mas naging consistent pa ‘yung Goddess. Pwedeng pang-primetime or afternoon prime.”
At ngayong part na nga ng Triple A Management si Carla, isa raw sa gusto niyang ma-achieve, magkaroon pa ng chance na makasama ang iba pang mga artista na hindi pa niya nakakasama. Gusto rin ni Carla na makasama sa proyekto o kahit sa mga social media collaboration sina Marian Rivera at Maine Mendoza na mga ‘kapatid’ niya ngayon sa Triple A.
Pinasubalian din ni Carla na dahil sa ex-husband na si Tom Rodriguez kung bakit siya lumipat ng Triple A from Luminary ni Popoy Caritativo. Maayos naman daw sila ni Popoy nag-usap at nagpapasalamat din siya sa pang-unawa nito.
As for Tom, napatawad na raw ito ni Carla.
At inamin ni Carla na expired na ang network contract niya sa GMA-7 noong May pa, pero nag-uusap na raw sila ngayon. Though, hindi nito itinanggi na kung sakali at may opportunity na makasama siya sa Batang Quiapo ni Coco Martin, open daw siya.
Though sey niya—mga chismis lang ito dahil wala naman daw offer.
Ang sigurado, may ‘Stolen Life’ pa na teleserye si Carla na dapat abangan sa kanya sa GMA-7.

AWARE na pala si Paul Salas sa revelation ni Andrea Brillantes na siya ang first crush noong 4 years old pa lang ito.
Sabi ni Paul, nagkakasama naman daw sila dati ni Andrea sa mga raket at ang both na nanay nila ay okay rin at nagkaka-usap. Kaya alam daw niya ito, pero natatawa na lang si Paul dahil nga bigla itong pinag-uusapan ngayon.
Natawa na lang din si Paul dahil ang hirit ni Andrea, ngayon ay hindi na.
Sa isang banda, one week before ng cast reveal lang pala nalaman ni Paul na isa siya sa cast ng Pinoy adaptation ng GMA-7 sa hit Korean Drama na “Shining Inheritance” kunsaan, ang role niya ay super bait talaga na magkakagusto sa character ni Kate Valdez.
