LAPID TO STUDENTS: SEIZE EDUCATION OPPORTUNITIES

Senator Lito Lapid encouraged students to make the most of their opportunity to study for a brighter future during the inauguration of a 5-storey school building at Don Honorio Ventura State University (DHVSU) in Apalit, Pampanga.

Lapid, who requested the funding for this project from Okada Foundation and Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR), urged young students not to let their chance to study slip by while their parents are working hard to support their education.

Reflecting on his own experience, the veteran legislator shared, “Kung may DHVSU noong araw, baka nakatapos din ako ng pag-aaral sa kolehiyo.”

Due to the hardships his family faced at the time, the seasoned lawmaker was only able to complete high school.

The senator from Pampanga also emphasized that students should take advantage of the time their parents are putting into their education.

“’Pag pinag-aral kayo ng mga magulang nyo, samantalahin nyo.”

“’Pag pinag-aral kayo ng mga magulang nyo, samantalahin nyo,” he said.

“’Wag nyo po hahayaan na sisikat ang araw at lulubog na wala kayong natututunan.”

“’Wag nyo po hahayaan na sisikat ang araw at lulubog na wala kayong natututunan. Kahit kelan hindi na muling maibabalik kapag lumipas na ang araw na ito,” Lapid stressed.

Dr. Enrique Baking, President of DHVSU, students, and local government officials from Apalit, Pampanga expressed their appreciation to Lapid and Okada Foundation Inc.

Meanwhile, James Lorenzana, President of Okada Foundation Inc., added that this is the first academic building they have funded and that the foundation allocated a budget of P50 million for its construction.
