Vigan mayor backs pay hike

>> Tuesday, May 10, 2011

VIGAN CITY, Ilocos Sur — Mayor Eva Marie Singson Medina had expressed her support to the proposed wage hike for workers both in the private and public sectors due to the continuing increase in the prices of prime commodities.

On the celebration of Labor Day, Medina said: “I guess the private business sectors should now share their profit to their workers through increasing their worker’s wages considering that their workers are the key players for the smooth operations of their business or their company.”

In her appeal for generosity among local employers, the lady mayor cited the legacy of the city’s illustrious son, Don Isabelo de los Reyes Sr. or “Don Belong,” who founded the first Philippine Labor Union. -- Freddie G. Lazaro
