THE Bagong Pilipinas Serbisyo Fair (BPSF) in Agusan del Norte is the biggest so far in terms of attendance from the House of Representatives, with a total of 63 solons expressing solidarity to the prompt service to Filipinos as espoused under the administration of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Romualdez Marcos, Jr.

Senior Deputy Speaker and Pampanga Rep. Aurelio “Dong” Gonzales noted that the BPSF in Agusan del Norte was also attended by Sen. Ramon “Bong” Revilla Jr. who joined the 63 House Members to witness how the Marcos administration brings government service directly to the people.

“This is the biggest display of unity and solidarity in BPSF next to the Sultan Kudarat service caravan, where almost 50 members of the House of Representatives, mostly from Mindanao attended. At tayo po ay nasa Mindanao uli. Damang-dama natin ang pagkakaisa ng mga mambabatas sa programa ni PBBM dito sa BPSF,” Gonzales said.

A total of P300-million worth of financial assistance and government services were rolled out to 80,000 beneficiaries in Agusan del Norte in the BPSF, added to some 200,000 kilograms of rice that were distributed through the efforts of “Mr. Rice” Speaker Ferdinand Martin G. Romualdez.

House Majority Leader and Zamboanga City Rep. Manuel Jose “Mannix” M. Dalipe said the sheer magnitude of attendance of the lawmakers in the BPSF event underscores the support the House gives to President Marcos and Speaker Romualdez, who is one of the main proponents of the Serbisyo Caravan.

“Lahat po ng umattend sa BPSF Agusan del Norte ay naniniwala sa adhikain ni PBBM tungkol sa paglalapit ng serbisyo sa ating mamamayan. Congress is already on break, and these lawmakers can be anywhere they want to, but they chose to be there sa Agusan del Norte para makiisa,” Dalipe said.
