  • The House of Representatives last week voted to pass on third and final reading a bill that seeks to expand the number of schools under the Philippine Science High School System (PSHS), an urgent measure that should breeze through the notoriously snail-paced legislative process to immediately become law.

The article from MSN discusses the dire situation at the Philippine Science High School (PSHS), a prestigious institution known for nurturing the country's top scientific minds.

Calls for increased government support and public-private partnerships are made to address these pressing concerns.
