The AKKK Partylist also want to provide training to enhance the business acumen of aspiring entrepreneurs.
“Of course, we want to provide technical training but along with it are financial and business skills din,” she siad.
“Madaming kasing merong kaalamang teknikal pero sa pagnenegosyo, doon sila nawawala at naglalaho ang kanilang kapital dahil hindi alam kung paanong imanage ang negosyo.”
