Kahit nakabakasyon ang Kamara, nagpulong pa rin ang House Committee on Transportation ni Catanduanes Rep. Cesar V. Sarmiento upang mag-ulat sa tagumpay ng 11-araw na Western-Eastern Nautical Highway Expedition nitong Marso 17- 27.
Pinasalamatan ni Sarmiento ang liderato ng Kamara sa pagtataguyod ng unang “Naval Highway, Roads and Ports Inspection”.
“Let me thank the leadership of House Speaker Pantaleon D. Alvarez (1st District, Davao del Norte) and Majority Leader Rodolfo C. Fariñas (1st District, Ilocos Norte) for their support and for making this worthwhile endeavor a reality. This is historic because this is the first time that the Congress leadership, headed by the Speaker and the Majority Leader, undertook port inspection in Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao,’’ ani Sarmiento.
Nagpasalamat din si Sarmiento sa lahat ng mambabatas na sumama sa roll-on, roll-off (RO-RO) inspections. (Bert De Guzman)
