PMC to submit bills drafted by students to Senate for evaluation.
The Philippine Model Congress, an institution which simulates the Philippine government’s legislative process, acknowledged five bills to be presented to the actual senate.
The five namely, Department of Planning, Transportation and Infrastructure act of 2018, Bayanihang Pabrika Program, Standard First Aid Integration Act of 2018, Children in Nation Building Act, and Mental Health Integration Act of 2018.
This annual invitation to aspiring student leaders around the country aim to not only promote the awareness of the youth but to also become a stage for what the youth thinks its government should prioritize be heard.
This year, Vice President Leni Robredo, graced the ceremony and welcomed more than 200 participants saying events such as this instills the value of diplomacy and discourse.
Niel Cauyao, who submitted the Bayanihang Pabrika Program, shared why students from different line of study created their proposals.
"Ginawa ko itong bill na ito dahil naniniwala ako na ang kailangan lang ng mga pilipinong manggagawa ay suporta mula sa gobyerno upang umunlad ang bawat industriya sa pilipinas at tumaas ang kalidad ng mga produkto at matugunan ang pangangailan ng buong bansa kasabay ang paglutas sa malawakang kahirapan."
He further added that the current training programs of the government are short lived which is why the youth are encouraged to take part in PMC's programs.
The delegates will take part in the congress simulation from June 2,2018.
