PRESIDENT Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. reiterated his commitment to improving healthcare and increasing the number of health facilities in the country, including those for cancer patients.
In his latest vlog, President Marcos announced that a large facility is being built in Pampanga specifically for cancer patients.
“Mayroon tayong mga itinatayo na tinatawag specialty hospital. Mayroon ngang isang malaking-malaking cancer specialty hospital na nasimulan na sa Pampanga,” President Marcos said.
“Maglalagay din po tayo sa mga iba’t ibang lugar para nga kagaya ng sinasabi mo, hindi na kayo mahirapan na kahit malalayo ay kailangan dadalhin lahat dito sa Maynila,” he added.
The President made the remarks in response to a message sent to him by a certain Maria, one of the well-wishers who greeted him during his birthday last week.
Maria requested additional benefits for cancer patients, asking the President to help patients find medical treatment without having to go to Metro Manila.
“Para mas malapit, ilalapit namin ang serbisyo ng healthcare sa inyong lahat, lalung-lalo na sa mga kawawa nating mga cancer patients,” the President assured.
