PASAY CITY– Four new members of the Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) board of trustees, recently appointed by Malacañang, reported for their first day at the GSIS Head Office and met with GSIS president and general-manager Jose Arnulfo Veloso, expressing full support for the leadership and pledging to uphold transparency, prudence and good governance in managing the pension fund.
The new trustees are Garry Velasquez De Guzman, representing the legal profession; Cenon Cruz Audencial Jr. and Enrico Gregorio Molina Trinidad, representing the banking, finance, investment and insurance sector; and Philippine Public School Teachers Association (PPSTA) president Gilbert Tan Sadsad, representing the education sector.
On their first day, the newly-appointed trustees were briefed on GSIS programs and policies. Later that day, Sadsad joined Veloso and GSIS trustee Beatriz Torno, a former education official who represents retired government workers, in a dialogue with the Teachers’ Dignity Coalition (TDC) to listen to the concerns and suggestions of educators.
Veloso said the appointments usher in a new phase of teamwork and stability within the organization. “We are moving forward as one team, united by our mission to safeguard the fund and deliver Ginhawa for All,” he said.
The GSIS leadership reaffirmed its focus on ensuring financial stability, responsive service and sustainable growth for its 2.7 million members and pensioners nationwide.
