Speaking at the webinar “Leadership during Crisis: Ensuring a Resilient Economy through Public and Private Collaboration” organized by the Ateneo de Manila University School of Government, Angara expressed belief that public and private partnership is key to accelerating the country’s COVID-19 vaccination program.
This way, the senator said the government can soon jumpstart the country’s ailing economy and create more job opportunities for the majority of Filipinos who were impacted by the pandemic.
“What should be clear to us now is that this heightened level of engagement between government agencies, private companies, and civil society needs to continue even after the pandemic,” Angara said at the forum.
