A message from Vice President Jejomar Binay

Vice President Jejomar Binay

I would like to extend my warmest regards and congratulations to the Autism Society Philippines as you hold the Philippine National Autism Conference 2013.

Your theme, “Hope for a Nation,” is most apt. Awareness on and understanding autism remain to be a major challenge here in our country. There are close to a million Filipinos suffering from this condition and only a handful receives proper attention and care.

I salute your efforts in promoting progress using resources available to you. May this conference inspire other organizations and motivate them to help empower persons with autism.

Mabuhay kayo!

Jejomar Binay
Vice President
Republic of the Philippines
