NTUC Phl Message on the occasion of the
OATH-TAKING of TEC TIPC Representatives
21 Jan 2019
Sa dinami-dami ng tripartite agencies ngaun,
ang TEC at TIPC ang inde pa dinadapuan ng sakit na IP virus
(itsa-pwera virus po yan).
Hanggang ngaun, tunay na mga lider manggagawa,
nominated by mainstream unions, ang nagsisilbi sa TEC at TIPC.
Thank you po, Secretary Bello,
for maintaining this oasis of tripartism
in a creeping desert of real social dialogue.
Sana po, mapalawak natin ang reach ng mga kasama nating labor representatives
sa iba pang mga ahensya ng gobierno na nagangailangan ng tamang patnubay.
Inde lang po government, inde lang po employers, ang concerned sa affairs of State.
Wala pong grupo na merong monopoly ng good sense for the good of the nation.
********
Sa buong mundo, naging model ng tripartism ang Pilipinas.
Isa tayo sa mga naunang bumalikwas at puspusang nagtayo ng tripartite agencies,
by law and by practice,
para sa tunay na social dialogue among government, employers and labor.
Sikat tayo sa daigdig.
Sikat tayo among unions all over the world.
Modelo tayo sa ganito. Hinahangaan, ginagaya.
Mula SSS; GSIS; PagIBIG; NLRC, POEA, OWWA, National Statistics and C Board;
Philippine Women’s Commission; at iba pa;
hanggang regional development councils; industrial, regional, provincial, city, municipal TIPCs; at iba pa – masipag na ginagampanan ng mga labor at ibang representatives
ang kanilang tungkulin.
Mula Secretary Blas Ople, hanggang Secretary Bebot Bello, na-maintain natin ang makabuluhang usapan at action para sa sama-samang kapakanan ng tatlong sector.
Ang inde seguro alam ng mundo ay
ang matinding responsibilidad ng mga tripartite representatives
for ensuring that sectoral interests are balanced
with the wider country and society interest.
Daming kelangang pagaralan, pagisipan, analyze, push, advocate, insist on, ipaglaban.
Meron tayong sectoral loyalties na kelangang i-balance with country interest
Dumarami at lumalaki ang mga areas of concern –
climate change, just transition,
violence and harassment in the workplace, inclusive growth,
SDGs, future of work –
mga usaping bago at complex.
Inde malulutas sa isang upuan.
Inde makukuha sa closed discussions with favored groups.
Merong mga usapin na ngaun, dahil sa mabibilis na developments,
ay salat, kulang, wanting, sa tripartite discussions,
sa makabuluhang social dialogue.
Para bagang walang “complete staff work”.
Sa dinami-dami ng tripartite agencies ngaun,
ang TEC at TIPC ang inde pa dinadapuan ng sakit na IP virus
(itsa-pwera virus po yan).
Hanggang ngaun, tunay na mga lider manggagawa,
nominated by mainstream unions, ang nagsisilbi sa TEC at TIPC.
Thank you po, Secretary Bello,
for maintaining this oasis of tripartism
in a creeping desert of real social dialogue.
Sana po, mapalawak natin ang reach ng mga kasama nating labor representatives
sa iba pang mga ahensya ng gobierno na nagangailangan ng tamang patnubay.
Inde lang po government, inde lang po employers, ang concerned sa affairs of State.
Wala pong grupo na merong monopoly ng good sense for the good of the nation.
Ayos na po yan para sa message from our sector.
Appreciated po namin sobra ang continued support ng mga taga BLR at DOLE.
Patnubayan tayo ng mga deities para sa magandang work natin sa TEC at TIPC.
Maraming salamat po!
