LUCENA CITY, Quezon- A total of 10,500 jobs are available in the ‘Serbisyong Suarez Mega Jobs Fair’ held today at Quezon Convention Center in this city.
Three people, including a five-year- old girl, died while nine others were injured when their vehicle was hit by a train in Candelaria in the province of Quezon this morning, police said.


According to Quezon Governor David Suarez, they invited 48 local employers and 14 overseas employers to provide jobs for the residents of the province.
The victims were aboard a Toyota Innova van which was heading for Manila. The van was hit by a train bound for Lucena city when it was crossing a Philippine National Railways railroad tracks in Masin Sur in Candelaria town at 4:15 a.m Thursday, said a police report.


“This is one of my priority programs, to provide jobs for new graduates and underemployed. The jobs fair will somehow help them to have decent jobs here in our country and abroad,” Gov. Suarez said.
"As a result of the strong impact, damages incurred by both vehicles. Three occupants of the Toyota van died due to severe head and body injuries, while nine others, including its driver, sustained injuries to different parts of the body,"the report said.


Gov. Suarez added that aside from conducting a jobs fair, the provincial government has focused on the improvement of delivery of quality education by constructing computer laboratories in public secondary schools in the province.
The train was allowed to proceed to a station in Lucena city with proper escorts. The driver of the train is now under the custody of the police.
 
“As early as high school, we developed their computer literacy and skills in order for them to be more competitive to private schools; the province has Quezon Science High School that caters to poor but intelligent students from the province,” Suarez said.
 
Suarez also said that they will invite the ‘Go negosyo caravan’ in the province for residents who want to engage in small businesses.
