Angara says P50,000 salary increase for teachers 'doable'

EDUCATION Secretary Juan Edgardo Angara on Tuesday said the proposed P50,000 increase in the entry-level salary of public school teachers was 'doable' if the government's fiscal condition improves.

Speaking to reporters, Angara said that for now, the increase in the teachers' pay continues under the Salary Standardization Law (SSL) for government workers.
