"We need more financial backers to support the group’s programs and if we can attract more support from the private sector, then we might just help finance the bids of our local masters with GM norms to achieve their goals of becoming RP’s next GMs," said Torre in yesterday’s PSA Forum at the Holiday Inn Manila.
