Senator Jinggoy Ejercito Estrada, a staunch labor advocate, files a counterpart bill in the Senate that will ensure useful employment for reformed drug users and provide incentives to companies that will hire them. Estrada, in his Senate Bill No. 2276, proposed to mandate the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) to institutionalize technical-vocational education and training (TVET) and livelihood programs designed specifically for reformed drug dependents. He also recommended the grant of incentives to establishments that will employ rehabilitated drug dependents who are graduates of TESDA programs. (Benjie J.
