LIMAY, Bataan, Philippines – In keeping with Earth Day as celebrated around the world last Friday, Mayor Ver Roque urged multi-national companies operating in this industrial town to help him protect the environment.
Roque said that while he considers investors as partners of this town in progress, good business managers are responsible for caring for “mother nature” and ensuring the health of its residents.
His appeal comes in the light of the P78-billion expansion program of Petron Corporation for plant in this town.
The mayor said he is confident that with the support his administration is giving to investors like Petron, they will, in return, ensure that the health of the environment and his constituents are not compromised.
Recently, Roque joined Petron executives at the launching of Phase 2 of the oil firm’s refinery upgrade, which is targeted for completion by the end of 2014.
In his bid to give priority to his constituents in terms of employment, Roque and the Sangguniang Bayan headed by Vice Mayor Remigio Tayag, Jr., adopted a resolution urging multi-national companies operating here to give employment priority to Limay residents.
