Welcome Speech of Councilor Alinor Abundo, SK Federation President

Good morning, Guests, Mrs. Sonia Roco, Municipal and Provincial Officials, fellow youth officials and students, ladies and gentlemen!

I take pride to welcome you all in this laudable project of Raul S. Roco Foundation, and the City Gov’t of Naga- The Raul S. Roco youth achievement awards.

My memory of Raul S. Roco, reminds of how Bicolano plays a significant role in nation building. This, however, is a reality, when I was chosen as SK Federation President of Virac Catanduanes. I realized that the youth, is the most essential sector in the society in securing the future of this province.

May this occasion brings a positive effect in building a province with effective governance whose priorities is to develop the youth as the hope of our nation.

Thank you!
