As we celebrate World Bamboo Day, I take great pride in Antique’s leadership in using bamboo to drive sustainability and innovation. Coming from this region, I’ve seen firsthand how bamboo is transforming our communities by creating jobs, boosting industries, and promoting environmental progress.
I am proud to support projects like the University of Antique’s Bamboo Processing Center, which harnesses Antique’s rich natural resources to develop a thriving local bamboo industry.
By supporting these initiatives, we are not only advancing local industries but also laying the groundwork for a greener, more sustainable future for generations to come.
