Guico III to enter into and sign a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with the University of the Philippines (UP)-Baguio relative for the secondment of Dr. Raymundo D.

Authored by Vice Governor Mark Ronald DG. Lambino, the resolution stated
that the PPC needs the services of a highly competent and technically
proficient person who will serve as a consultant and interim president.Gov. Guico
Hence, “Dr. Raymundo D. Rovillos, a professor at the Department
of History and Philosophy, College of Social Sciences of the University of the
Philippines Baguio, has been identified to qualify for the position at the
PPC.”
The resolution moreover cited that “Dr. Rovillos is willing to be
seconded to the PPC for the period from February 1, 2024, to January 31, 2025,
and hereby accepts and agrees to perform the duties as President as stipulated
in the terms of the secondment.”
The PPC is a public, non-sectarian, non-partisan technical-vocational,
and higher educational institution operating primarily under the subsidy of the
Provincial Government of Pangasinan.
As stated in a letter sent earlier by Gov. Guico to Prof. Corazon Abansi,
Chancellor of UP-Baguio, the former cited that the province is currently
vigorously carrying out programs and projects that are deemed pivotal toward
the realization of the present administration’s strategic initiatives in
various areas such as social and economic development, public policy and
governance, infrastructure, culture, heritage, and education.
The establishment of the PPC, the governor stressed, aims to prepare the
youth for immediate employment in the province’s immediate communities and
beyond.
“We are now in the process of developing academic programs in three
areas/fields: agricultural entrepreneurship, sustainable local governance and
program/project management, and creativity and design,” Gov. Guico
stated in the letter. (Ruby R. Bernardino, Photo by Joey Olimpo/PIMRO)
