Ten Outstanding Subic Bay Workers to be awarded on November 24

Atty. Roy Pastor, Head of SBMA Labor Department announced today in radio interview over DWHL that the Ten Outstanding Subic Bay Workers will be awarded on November 24, recognizing for the first time in more than six years the actual date when the creation of Subic Freeport was signed and more importantly, the day when Olongapo City celebrates Volunteers Day. It can be recalled that Tong Payumo refused to celebrate volunteers' day, ignored the volunteers' monument and volunteer's shrine and moved SBMA celebrations to a different date effectively trying to erase the volunteers' legacy in the creation of Subic Bay Freeport.

The 10 Outstanding Freeport Workers last year were Lina Balan of the Legend International Resort Ltd; Ludivina L. Carballo of Aura College; Israel R. Daria of Koryo Subic; Jeanette C. Fabian of Aura College; Frederick T. Ferrarez of RCM Manufacturing; Maria Belma B. Ginez of Subic International Hotel; Manuel D. Gutierrez of Wistron; Nolito F. Isaac of Subic Water; Eddie D. Sioson of RCM Manufacturing; and Thelma M. Villanueva of Subic Water.

Subic Bay Workforce Development Foundation Inc., which organized the event is now accepting nominations for this year's awards.

Subic Bay Freeport will nominate the winners to the Tower Award of the Rotary Club of Manila.
