Quezon residents in Palawan are expressing deep gratitude for the much-needed services provided by the recent SPS Caravan, a program of the provincial government led by Governor Dennis M. Socrates.
Running from November 4 to 8, the caravan brought free healthcare, dental services, and other essential support directly to remote barangays, easing the burden for many underserved residents.
“Ako po ay lubos na nagpapasalamat kay Gob. Socrates na mayroon pong ganitong programa na natutulungan kaming mga mahihirap, may libreng gamutan at libreng bunot ng ngipin,” said Marelyn Katanduanes, a resident of Brgy. Panitian.
For Sosana Gadon of Brgy. Alfonso XIII, the program was equally impactful, “Nagpapasalamat po kami kay Gob. Socrates na may ganitong pagkakataon na nakapacheck up kami ng libre.”
The SPS Caravan provided a wide range of services, including medical consultations, dental care, circumcision, and distribution of vitamins and medicines. Government agencies like the Philippine Statistics Authority, PhilHealth, Philippine National Police, and Philippine Army, along with various provincial offices, collaborated to ensure the caravan’s success.
