A total of 17 students including 4 graduates of the city government-owned Technical Institute of Iloilo City (TIIC) Molo campus will be going to work in Doha, Qatar and Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) soon.

Iloilo City Mayor Jed Patrick Mabilog said the trade test passers were certified as qualified for employment abroad after passing the trade test conducted by the LML Manpower Services Inc., a PERT/CPM manpower exponent.

The city mayor said the graduates are clear example of the city government desire to help poor students secure vocational and technical courses for job placements in other countries and help their families.

Mabilog also assured assistance in securing medical and other certifications from the city government relative to processing of travel documents of the workers.

Mathilde Octavio, officer-incharge school administrator of TIIC, said that 2 are first year Civil Technical students, 11 are second year and 4 are graduates of Carpentry and Masonry/Tile Setter.

Octavio said TIIC is offering vocational and technical short term courses on six categories in the Molo campus aside from several short term courses offered at the Bo. Obrero campus.

Those who will go to Doha, Qatar are Mandro Alapar Jr., Ernesto Camus Jr., Charlie de Asis, Fernan Guevarra, Ronnie Josal, Randy Jaranilla, Gerbert Moreno, Gary Selorio, Edmund Basilio Jr., Airron Gabion, Shanel Macalalag, Renel Pagayunan, Jessie Fernandez and Alvin Montepio.

Among those 17 students who will be working abroad are Paul Gelilang, Eugenio Jamili and Bernie Magallanes, who will be sent to KSA.
