CONSUMER WELFARE MONTH FOR 2016

Every October has been designated as Consumer Welfare Month by the Office of the President. Agencies involved in the National Consumer Affairs Council (NCAC) take turns acting as Lead Agency in preparing for activities for this Month.  This year, it is Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) which is the Lead Agency.  As such, Ceremonial Opening for Consumer Welfare Month was done on 30 Sept. 2016 at the Assembly Hall of the BSP; starting with the Parade of Flags and ending with ribbon-cutting ushering in the start of activities for this month-long Affair.  PAGASA was represented by its Pres. Steven Cua/Welcome Supermart and its Directors Fred Gravador/Simplicity Ministop (in black shirt) and Edna Ontiveros/Candice Megamart in Tuguegaro.  They took the opportunity to have a photo-op with BSP Governor Armando Tetangco, Jr. (voted 7x as One of the World’s Top Central Bankers by NY-based Global Finance Magazine) and Keynote Speaker Sen. Grace L. Poe-Llamanzares. They also checked out the exhibits including that of “Consumer Rights for Safe Food” which was one of the presenters at the Symposium attended by STC just 3 days earlier on Organic & Safe Foods.
