DTI director tells consumers to avail of discounts
Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Regional Director Dominic Abad has asked consumers here to avail of the discounts that will be offered by the Philippine Retailers’ Association-Iloilo Chapter on June 12 during the 111th Independence Day celebration.
Abad said that the members of the Philippine Retailers’ Association-Iloilo Chapter Day will give premium discounts on their various commodities that consumers could avail.
He said that the offered premium discounts will be part of the non-wage benefits for workers.
But aside from the discounts, the DTI will also set up on-line business name registration at the Amigo Plaza Mall together with the other national government agencies so that those who intend to put up their business could already register them.
The DTI will also award the 49 employment contracts of those hired to monitor prices of commodities in the key cities and municipalities in Western Visayas.
This is in support to the Comprehensive Livelihood Emergency Employment Program (CLEEP) of Pres. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo to generate jobs for those affected by the global economic meltdown. (PNA)
