TOGETHER with the Technical Skills Development Authority (Tesda), San Miguel Corp. (SMC) is expanding its skills development program to cover more provinces and include financial assistance to small businesses in disadvantaged communities where it operates.

"As our economy starts opening up, there is an urgent need to help the poorest and most disadvantaged sectors get back on their feet. Many have lost their jobs or small businesses during this pandemic, and what we aim to do is upskill them [in order that] they can pursue better job [opportunities,] help them start or restart their small businesses, and allow them to participate in the economy's growth post-pandemic," SMC President Ramon Ang says.
