For its maiden issue, PPP TALK focuses on the major achievements of the PPP Program that marked 2012. PPP for School Infrastructure Project (PSIP), the nation’s first social infrastructure PPP project of the Department of Education, was awarded. The sign held by the schoolchildren is a graphical representation of the PPP Center’s achievement in rolling out eight projects out of its targeted eight. In academic parlance, this translates to a perfect score. Education is a major triumph of the Program. We see this as an investment to empower our children. There is reason to celebrate!
