Competent resource speakers from Congress, University of the Philippines, Asian Development Bank and other national offices and institutions will share to the participants their knowledge in Records Management and Archives Administration. In view hereof, may we hereby entreat you to allow your Barangay Secretaries, Barangay Treasurers and interested elected barangay officials to attend the National Seminar-Workshop on the New Trends in Records Management and Archives Administration on the date and place stated above and to allow the charging against your local funds of the registration fee and other fees stated above. PLEASES is hopeful that by 2018 sixty percent of the LGUs will be able to have their own Archives.
