OFW families to multiply remittance 10 times over

The TESDA Chief says dollar earnings are not enough for a family these days. The high prices of commodities combined with the cost of sending children to school require tight budgeting. “We have to admit, funds from salaries are often no longer enough, even if it is in dollar denomination. That is why TESDA is pushing for entrepreneurship – to strengthen the family’s purchasing power amidst rising costs of goods and services,” explains Villanueva.Work in Singapore
