This is a concrete manifestation of a strong public-private partnership, said San Remigio Mayor Mariano Martinez.

Nino Ybanez, San Remigio Information Officer,  said the turn over ceremony was done at the Training Center in Barangay Poblacion.

At the same time, they also held the graduation of 30 San Remigiohanons from the “EXPERTO AKO” Masonry Skills Training.

Ybanez said the 30 residents compose the first batch of the training participants that was purposely under the typhoon Yolanda assistance of Cemex.

But for the formal masonry course, Ybanez said that Cemex and the Technical Education Skills and Development Authority (TESDA) will have to be finalized along with their PESO Manager Antonio Villamor.

Apo Cemex is located in Barangay Tinaan, southern City of Naga.  It was originally called Apo Cement Corporation (APOCEMCO) until it was acquired by Cemex Philippines in 1999.

It is among the largest cement producers in the country. CEMEX Foundation's support for education, environment, and livelihood primarily revolves around the objectives of promoting sustainability and welfare of the community. 

San Remigio was one of the northern towns heavily affected by typhoon Yolanda in 2013.  (rmn/fcc/PIA-Cebu)
