SEN. Christopher “Bong” Go on Thursday stepped in to provide additional support to workers and community leaders in Pandi, Bulacan, complementing the local government’s initiatives to improve public service delivery especially for the poor and the needy.

Go and his Malasakit Team distributed snacks, food packs, vitamins, masks, shirts, and balls for basketball and volleyball to 1,250 barangay workers, mother leaders, and other indigents at the Barangay Bunsuran 1st Hall. Select recipients received a bicycle, a mobile phone, shoes, and a watch.

As chair of the Senate Committee on Health and Demography, Go pledged support for those facing health issues through the Malasakit Centers initiative, which he started in 2018. This program was institutionalized in 2019 through Republic Act No. 11463, which he principally authored and sponsored. It provides streamlined access to government medical assistance programs. As reported by the DOH, the program has assisted around ten million Filipinos nationwide.

Herbosa Jr., fellow lawmakers, and local government units, sufficient funds have been allocated for more than 700 Super Health Centers nationwide including 18 in Bulacan.
