PBBM lauds gov’t partners for helping Samar beneficiaries



President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. lauded local government units (LGUs), government agencies, and private organizations for providing assistance and opportunities to beneficiaries in Samar and Filipinos worldwide.

In his speech, President Marcos attributed the success of the Trabaho at Serbisyong Pangkalusugan sa Bagong Pilipinas to the coordination of government partners with the national government.

“Kaya naman nagpapasalamat tayo sa ating mga employer, nandito silang lahat at sila’y tumutulong sa atin at sila po ay naghahanap ng manggagawa, hindi lamang dito sa Pilipinas pati na sa mga iba’t ibang trabaho sa abroad,” President Marcos said during the Trabaho at Serbisyong Pangkalusugan sa Bagong Pilipinas event in Sta. Rita, Samar.

“Papasalamat siyempre tayo sa ating mga local officials dahil po kahit na anong gawin namin sa national, ‘pag hindi maganda ang coordination sa ating mga local officials, sa LGU, ay hindi siguro ganito kasing ganda ang magiging program natin,” he added.

The President recognized the volunteer doctors, health workers, and Department of Health (DOH) staff for serving in medical missions.

He also thanked the Katuwang sa Diwa at Gawa para sa Masaganang Ani at Mataas na Kita (KADIWA) for expanding and strengthening the program offering cheaper agricultural products.

During the event, the President hailed the Department of Labor and Employment’s efforts in providing livelihood opportunities to the jobless and retrenched beneficiaries.

“Mayroon din po tayong livelihood program. ‘Yung hindi naman nag-a-apply ng trabaho ay mayroon tayong DOLE-supported na livelihood program. Ito ay lalung-lalo na para sa mga manggagawa natin na nawalan ng trabaho ay naghahanap ng hanapbuhay,” the President said. | PND
