Senator Rafael ‘’Raffy’' Tulfo wants the Office of the Press Secretary (OPS) to start issuing notices written in both English and Filipino so that everyone could understand them.
Tulfo, during the organizational meeting of the Senate Committee on Public Information and Mass Media, which he chairs, noted Monday, Aug. 15 that it would be better if notices posted in government offices were written in English and Filipino because not everyone could fully understand English, especially those belonging to the poorest of the poor.
“Maybe I can make a request to make it a practice of posting notices in English and Filipino,” Tulfo asked.
In response, Press Secretary Trixie Cruz-Angeles assured the senator that her office is willing to adopt the practice of issuing notices written in both languages.
