VIRAC, Catanduanes- As a kick-off to the annual Linggo ng Kalikasan celebration, the Catanduanes State Colleges will spearhead the Logo Designing Contest which is open to all interested Catandunganons who have a  flair for graphics design and visual arts.
VIRAC, Catanduanes- The Department of Transportation and Communication (DOTC) Office of Transport Cooperatives, in cooperation with the Congressional District Office (CDO), conducted a seminar-workshop for trike operators and drivers from March 7-9, 2012 at Rackdell Inn, Virac, Catanduanes with the theme, “Traffic Rules, Franchising and Cooperative Development.


The entry must capture the essence of the theme, “Sa Turismo at Kalikasan, Nakasalalay ang Matatag na Kinabukasan.

It must also have a written explanation on the concept contained in the logo. A certification as to the originality of the logo signed by the participant is also required. Should complaints arise, prize will be forfeited, if ever the entry wins. As such, the certification must also be attached to the email or file together with the entry.
According to Congressman Cesar V. Sarmiento, said seminar is very important because of the concerns and important things that are beyond the knowledge of the transport groups.
