Aklan on April 17.
It was attended by hundreds of teachers from the different
schools in Aklan. Before the ceremony, the first
100 teachers/officials to arrive in the event venue also received P500 each from Haresco.
The congressman should choose his outfit or attire to suit the occasion. Evidently this event is a formal event. The awardees, the superintendent, the governor and others are dressed accordingly. The casual attire of the congressman sticks out like a sore thumb. His staff should alert him on what to don on occasions.
