THE Trade Union Congress of the Philippines has hailed Solaire Manila, the world-class fully-integrated resort and gaming complex in Paranaque City, citing the more than 4,600 new jobs the project will create.
“We are absolutely behind the project, which will surely generate well-paying jobs in the services sector,” said former senator and TUCP president Ernesto Herrera.
“We have thousands of hotel and restaurant management graduates who are totally jobless and desperately looking for gainful employment. They will benefit from the project,” said Herrera, former chairman of the Senate committee on labor, employment and human resources development.
Herrera, designated by President Aquino as vice chairman of the Tripartite Industrial Peace Council, was referring to Solaire Manila, which is being developed by Bloomberry Resorts Corp. on 8.3 hectares of reclaimed land leased from the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp.
The country’s huge surplus of HRM professionals has prompted the Commission on Higher Education to discourage fresh high school graduates from taking up the program, along with four other “oversubscribed” courses – teaching, nursing, business administration, and information technology. –Manila Standard Today & filed under Metro
