Over 1,200 residents in the said barangay and the neighboring communities gathered at the barangay’s covered court to avail of the different services offered by various government agencies such as health and grooming services. Special services were also accessed by children, pregnant women, and senior citizens.
In addition, the activity also paved the way for additional economic opportunities for the residents such as small-scale business start-up ideas and assistance from the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) and scholarship programs offered by the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA).

Lea Mae Lauro, a resident of the barangay who is currently completing her undergraduate studies, was able to enroll under TESDA’s tailoring course. She expressed her gratitude to PPOC for providing the residents various opportunities to improve their lives.
“Through this scholarship, I can now maximize my knowledge in tailoring and even make a living out of it,” she affirmed.
For Juanilio Salazar, a senior citizen who was able to avail the services such as medical check-up, medicines, and even livelihood assistance, the immersion is one of the most effective projects of the government since services are delivered and accessed right away.
Agusan del Norte governor Dale B. Corvera emphasized that the activity is to provide Agusanons opportunities to avail the services of the government, especially for those who live in far-flung communities.

“This activity serves as evidence that the Philippine government is not abandoning its people and in fact is doing their best to serve them,” Corvera added.
Moreover, the event will serve as a reminder for the people that the government is doing their best to deliver the promise of a better life for every Filipino which is contradictory to the false perception propagated by communist terrorist group (CTG).
Agusan del Norte 2nd district representative Ma. Angelica Amante-Matba called for the continued support of the people to the government’s projects, viewing it as a major contributor to end insurgency in the region.
“The problem is that people rely on the government for solving the many problems faced by our nation. The government cannot do the work alone. We need your cooperation to bring an end to the issues that are encountered by our county especially in the campaign against insurgency,” said Matba. (Doreen Marielle N. Rosales/VLG/PIA-Caraga)
