The said confirmation was part of the result as the lawmakers from Guam inspected the various skills-training facilities in the free port and urged the SBMA to form a Philippine delegation to Guam to expedite the setting up of the Subic Bay training center.

Chairman Feliciano Salonga of Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority (SBMA) assures his support on behalf of the SBMA, saying that a Philippine representation will ensure that Filipino workers will get first shot at this massive employment opportunity.

Guam expressed much confidence in the skills of Filipino workers, who built Guam after the brutal World War II.

The Guam delegation is now establishing understanding, and learning more about the Philippine process, so that final agreements could soon be made for the Guam build-up that would relocate US troops stationed in Okinawa, Japan. [via philstar.com]
