Vice President Leni Robredo on Sunday, May 1, commemorated the country’s Labor Day by highlighting the Filipino workers’ need for “just wages,” “protection from abuse,” and “elimination of the old and rotten system” to reach progress.Robredo, who is set to attend a Labor Day event organized by the Alliance of Labor Leaders for Leni and Workers for Leni at the Araneta Coliseum in Cubao, Quezon City, invited all Filipinos to step forward to a “brighter” future.
“Maisasakatuparan natin ang mga dakilang layuning ito kung ilalagay natin ang kapakanan ng manggagawa sa puso ng ating pamamahala ,” she said in a statement. “Sa pagsusulong ng makatwirang pagpapasahod, proteksiyon sa pang-aabuso, at pagbaklas sa mga luma at bulok na kalakaran, matatanggal natin ang mga sagabal sa ating tuloy-tuloy na kaunlaran ,” Robredo added.
A brighter tomorrow for the Philippines would mean Filipinos are free from hunger, violence, and corruption.In the statement, the Vice President, who already promised to make the Security of Tenure bill a priority legislation if she wins on May 9, said she is one with the Filipinos in celebrating the dignity of the ordinary workers and their contributions to the Filipino community.
“Alalahanin natin na ang sinumang naghahanap-buhay nang buong puso at katapatan ay nag-aambag hindi lang sa ekonomiya, kundi pati sa pag-abot ng mga pangarap, pagpapatibay ng kapayapaan at katatagan sa mga komunidad, at pagpapalakas sa mga nasa laylayan ,” she added.
