Eighteen inmates at the Correctional Institute for Women (CIW) in Mandaluyong City are set for release.
The CIW said in a statement that those set for release have finished their three-day seminar on “Personality Development-Developing Self-Esteem” last July 23.
It said the seminar allows the inmates “to learn the definition of self-esteem and its characteristics, to categorize people with high and low self-esteem, and to assist individuals in developing positive confidence.”
“PDLs must know what they want in life to be completely satisfied with their interests,” it also said.
Last July 12 and 15, the CIW released 12 inmates who had been acquitted of the charges filed against them, had been granted parole, and had completed their jail term.

The Bureau of Corrections (BuCor) said on Thursday, July 29, it may soon put up a regional prison facility in Cagayan to further decongest the New Bilibid Prison (NBP) in Muntinlupa City.
In a statement, BuCor said that Deputy Director General for Operations and Administration Gabriel P. Chaclag had met with Cagayan Gov. Manuel N. Mamba for the project.
“Gov. Manuel Mamba readily agreed for the establishment of a regional facility in their province and offered 250 hectares of land located at Barangay San Mariano, Lal-lo, Cagayan,” Bucor said.
“It will only take some documentations to actually seal the deal for the realization of this BuCor project,” it said.
