PASAY CITY -- The Office of Senator Christopher “Bong” Go concluded its two-day relief effort in Surigao del Sur on Friday, July 2, by delivering much needed recovery aid to the towns of Lianga and Barobo that are still reeling from the devastation caused by Typhoon Vicky in mid-December of last year.
Go’s personnel provided meals, vitamins, masks and face shields to a total of 82 residents at the Barangay Banahaw, Lianga and Brgy. Tambis, Barobo covered courts. Furthermore, a team from the National Housing Authority also handed out financial assistance through its Emergency Housing Assistance Program in a separate distribution.
The Senator assured concerned local officials that his office is always ready to help should they need more support and assistance from the national government.
“Huwag po kayong mawalan ng pag-asa dahil patuloy kami ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte na magseserbisyo sa inyo. Gagawin namin ang lahat sa abot ng aming makakaya upang tulungan kayo kaya ‘wag kayong mag-atubiling lumapit sa aming opisina,” said Go.
“Ngayon, kung mayroong mga pasyente na kailangan ng tulong, pwede niyo rin kaming lapitan at kami na ang sasagot sa pagpapa-ospital kahit pagpapa-opera ng tao. Kung hindi kaya diyan, tutulungan namin silang makakuha ng serbisyong medikal dito sa Maynila,” he added.
