TABUK CITY, Kalinga
--Rep. Roman Romulo of the Lone District of Pasig City is now an “adopted son
of Kalinga.”
Resolution No. 2016-19
passed by the Sangguniang Panlalawigan and approved by Governor Jocel Baac
declared Romulo adopted son of Kalinga for his “invaluable support and
contribution to the approval by Congress of
the law converting the Kalinga-Apayao State College into the Kalinga
State University.”
Romulo was the
Chairman of the Committee on Higher and Technical Education in the House of
Representatives when Republic Act No. 10584 converting KASC to a state
university was approved into law.
Romulo was guest
speaker during the recent 21st founding anniversary of Kalinga. In his message,
he cited the need for wider dissemination of educational programs that help
students get higher education.
He cited RA No. 10684
or the “Iskolar ng Bayan Act of 2014” he authored which provides financial
assistance to top 10 graduates of public high schools in the country. – Peter
