Dualtech Center was introduced by the Office of the Vice President (OVP) team in its recent trip in Sumisip, Basilan to Out-Of-School youth (OSY) who may qualify for scholarship in Dualtech’s 2-Year Electromechanics Technology course. Due to lack of opportunities in Sumisip, these youths are prospective recruits of the Abu Sayaff Group.
In 2017, these OSYs were the beneficiaries of the communal vegetable garden project, a partnership between Vice Mayor Jul-Adman Hataman and the 64th Infantry Batallion which was also supported by Angat Buhay through provision of farm tools, seed, fertilizer, and fencing materials. In order to foster long-term opportunities for the families, selected scholars will be sent for technical training at Dualtech Center in Canlubang, Calamba City.
