The Philippine Business for Education (PBEd) urged Pres. Ferdinand ‘Bongbong’ Marcos Jr. to prioritize education and use his political will to make education reforms happen in order to curb the effects of the learning crisis.
"We must make education and nutrition our national concern and national priority. If we focus on developing our people first, many of our problems—from corruption to poverty, to low productivity to joblessness—will be easier to solve," said PBEd President Chito Salazar during a press conference Friday, July 21.
“To make education reforms happen…we must set aside political calculations in choosing what is right and what is correct for our children,” Salazar added. “Education is a multi-year, multi-decade, multi-administration problem, so it should be given the right attention and resources…We always talk about infrastructure, roads, ports, bridges, airports, tourism campaigns but shouldn’t we invest in what great, prosperous, equitable nations and societies are made of,” Salazar stressed.
