Cong. Solis pledged to facilitate the provision of 1M for the purchase of desktop computers that will be used by LGU-CTECs in the 2d district to serve students/constituents through the Career Explorer software. He also promised to encourage other congressmen to adopt a similar program.

Cong. Solis made his promise during a meeting last March 22 with PD Santos, Miss Bornas and officials of the Association of Sorsogon CTECs led by Miss Rowena Fajardo (Gubat).
