Mayor Mytha Ann Canoy thanked Senator Bong Go as the legislator led the groundbreaking ceremony of the Super Health Center in Barangay South Poblacion, San Fernando, Cebu recently.
Canoy expressed her deep gratitude to Go for his unwavering support to the municipality, particularly in health services and infrastructure projects.
“Ako, naroon ako kanina sa South Poblacion Gym dahil nag-inaugurate tayo ng Super Health Center… na ibinigay sa ating bayan ng ating mahal na Senator Bong Go, na talaga namang masipag,” the lady mayor said.
In addition to the health center, Canoy mentioned that the legislator also advocated for the ongoing improvement of the South Poblacion Gym.
The gym renovation, which is currently under construction, is another example of the senator’s commitment to local infrastructure development.
She also acknowledged the lawmaker’s swift action in extending assistance to fire victims in the municipality, even before any official request for aid was made.
“Hindi ka kailangang humingi. Tayo pa ang nilapitan.”
“Hindi pa tayo humihingi ng tulong, pero tumulong na agad siya. Alam niya kasi, hindi ba, tayo’y laging binabantayan. Hindi ka kailangang humingi. Tayo pa ang nilapitan,” Canoy added.
She expressed her desire to continue working closely with Go, emphasizing the strong bond between the municipality and the senator, and the positive changes his initiatives have brought to San Fernando.
“Dito sa San Fernando, mananatili tayong nakaalalay kay Senator Bong Go. Hindi lang tayo masaya at nagpapasalamat ngayong hapon dahil kay Senator Bong Go, kundi talagang natutuwa tayo sa kanyang ginagawa,” Canoy stressed.
In his speech, Go pointed out that one of his key advocacies is the establishment of more Super Health Centers nationwide.
“Sa mga itinayo ng Super Health Centers, nakita namin kung gaano kalaki ang naitutulong nito sa komunidad, lalo na sa rural areas.”
“Sa mga itinayo ng Super Health Centers, nakita namin kung gaano kalaki ang naitutulong nito sa komunidad, lalo na sa rural areas. ‘Yun po ang layunin ng mga Super Health Centers, ang ilapit sa mamamayan ang serbisyong medikal ng gobyerno,” the senator said.
Through the concerted efforts of Go, fellow lawmakers, the Department of Health (DOH) led by Secretary Ted Herbosa, and local government units, adequate funding was allocated for establishing more than 700 Super Health Centers nationwide, including 20 in Cebu.
Go also expressed gratitude to the local government for their diligent efforts in making the Super Health Center a reality.
He specifically thanked Canoy, Congresswoman Rhea Gullas, Governor Gwen Garcia, and Vice Mayor Ricci Regen Reluya for their contributions.
