00:00It is expected that more faraway places in the country will receive quality medical services.
00:06According to the government, this is after President Ferdinand R. Marquez Jr.
00:11yesterday announced the largest distribution of patient transport vehicles with the help of PCSO.
00:17Clayzel Pardilla is in the center of the news.
00:22In the first anniversary of the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office,
00:27PCSO will distribute patient transport vehicles with the help of PCSO.
00:31President Ferdinand R. Marquez Jr. is the first in a large distribution in the provinces of Cebu,
00:39Samar, Bohol, Pangasinan, and Negros Occidental.
00:43It is expected to bring medical services to the poorest Filipinos and in remote areas.
00:50The ambulance, which contains oxygen, blood pressure apparatus, wheelchair, stretcher, and other medical equipment, is fully equipped.
01:00According to the President, the government is not blinded by the difficulty of obtaining patient transport vehicles,
01:06which are sometimes driven by force.
01:10That is why the President's directive is to give PTV to the most in need.
01:16I don't think that's how it should be.
01:18That's why I said, we just need to say it.
01:25We just need to, as far as we can, just get these emergency vehicles.
01:33And let's distribute it. Let's not think about where it will go.
01:39Did we vote there? Did we win there? No, nothing like that.
01:43Wherever we need it, we will send it.
01:46The administration's target is to give ambulances to all the towns and villages in the country.
01:52For now, the PCSO has already completed the distribution of emergency vehicles to all local governments in Cebu and Bohol.
02:01So please talk to the chief executive.
02:04I am happy that we are able to do this and we will continue to do this.
02:09I just want to ask our chief executives, our LGU heads to take care of this for a long time.
02:17Under the Medical Transport Vehicle Donation Program,
02:21564 LGUs, hospitals, and government agencies have benefited from free ambulances.
02:30The PCSO is asking for support in their games, such as lottery and small town lotteries.
02:37The proceeds will be used for the charity and health programs of the country.
