Technical Education and Skills Development Authority director general Dante Liban yesterday said he has ordered TESDA officials to study the possibility of turning over to the private sector the testing and evaluation of so-called overseas performing artists (OPAs).


"The OPAs are not under the mandate of TESDA," Liban said. "Just like seafarers, I think they are better off if they are given to the private sector to be tested and evaluated."
