AgNor villages avail free services

From the Philippine Information Agency (Sep 30, 2019): AgNor villages avail free services 


BUTUAN CITY -- As the government intensifies the implementation of the Executive Order No. 70 or the whole-of-nation approach to end local communist armed conflict in the Caraga region, the Provincial Peace and Order Council (PPOC)-Agusan del Norte has conducted another immersion in the three barangays of Remedios T. Romualdez (RTR) town.

More than 800 residents from different walks of life in the barangays of Tagbongabong, San Antonio and Balang-Balang of RTR have availed and benefitted from the medical, dental and social services, including legal consultations held in Barangay Tagbongabong.

Krizia Mae Mangadlao, a six-month pregnant from Barangay Balang-Balang was one of the beneficiaries who also received a buntis kit from the government. She said she was able to save some money intended to buy things for her baby.

“This is really of great help to me and the rest of the pregnant women. I hope this kind of activity will continue to help more Agusanons,” said Mangadlao.

The senior citizens also availed of the free services, which included Rosalinda Mundia, who benefitted from the free medicines.

“Thank you to all the government agencies who took part in this immersion and we continue to give our trust and confidence to the administration,” Mundia said.

Mayor Richard Daquipil was thankful to the different government agencies for choosing the municipality of RTR as the venue for the conduct of PPOC immersion, as it was the first time that such kind of activity was held in their area.

This, according to the mayor, is one of the ways to show to the locals that the government is doing its best to provide what they need by bringing the services closer to the people.

Mayor Daquipil also urged all residents to help the government in its effort to address the problem on insurgency.
