President Ferdinand ‘Bongbong’ Marcos Jr. celebrated his birthday this year differently. Instead of receiving gifts, he opted to give, and the gift came in the form of P300,000.00 worth of medicines for Angeleños, through the Lingap at Alagang Bayanihan (LAB) For All initiative.
On behalf of President Marcos, Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office Pampanga Branch Representative Deily Rose Laresma turned over 90,000 pieces each of metformin, gliclazide, amlodipine, losartan, and multivitamins to Angeles City Mayor Carmelo ‘Pogi’ Lazatin Jr. at the City Hall Lobby.
Mayor Lazatin was joined by City Councilor Atty. Arvin Suller, Department of the Interior and Local Government Angeles City Director Yvette Cosio, City Health Officer Dr. Verona Guevarra, CHO Assistant Officer Dr. Cristine Joy Patio, City Planning and Development Officer Engr. Nilda Quito, and General Services Officer Evangeline Malonzo during the turnover, which was sponsored by STL AAC Lake Tahoe Gaming and Amusement Corporation.
