MABALACAT CITY – Mayor Crisostomo Garbo (MCG) reiterates his instruction to the medical team of the local government to help the people in need of health assistance without asking for anything in return.

“Sa ating medical team, patuloy ninyong tulungan ang mga kababayan natin ng taos-puso at walang pinipili. Kung meron kayong kaalaman at kakayahan at nakikita niyong kailangan buhatin ang pasyente, gawin ninyo. Pero kapag meron akong nalaman na meron nanghingi sa inyo sa mga kababayan natin kapalit ng pagtulong ninyo, malalagot kayo sa akin,” the mayor said during the flag ceremony outside the city hall.

MCG said his administration must not be “selective” in delivering government services but should be inclusive and have no double standard.

“I am giving you enough time to find all the bedridden kababayans in our 27 barangays. Ayaw ko ng makarinig ng may nalalagpasan ako tuwing nagsasagawa ako ng visitation,” the city mayor added.

Garbo told all public servants and government employees in Mabalacat must not be complacent or satisfied with the current performance and should “double” the effort in helping the constituents and upgrading the city to become even better.

“Narito tayo upang i-angat ang antas ng kalidad ng paglilingkod sa kapwa. Huwag tayo magslowdown sa public service. Regular na ikutin ang bawat barangay. Alamin ang mga kakulangan kahit yung maliliit na bagay na dapat pa rin ayusin,” Garbo said.

To date, the Mabalacat City government has ten dialysis machines. Mayor Cris Garbo already announced last month that he would add 22 more units to increase the treatment sessions to 96 cycles per day.

MCG has offered personal prayers and financial assistance to 554 bedridden Mabalaqueños since he started his personal visits in 2019.
