CITY OF SAN FERNANDO -- Municipal social welfare and development officers (MSWDOs) in Pampanga have recently assured Governor Lilia Pineda that they will support her programs particularly in the delivery of basic health services and in uplifting the quality of lives of every Kapampangan.

The statement of support was made in a courtesy call by the MSWDOs at the Capitol's Executive House on Sunday.

Pineda invited them to a dialogue to identify the most effective and appropriate means of helping the sick and poor Kapampangans.

Mylin Biccay, Candaba town MSWDO, said the governor wanted to establish good working relationships with their group to ensure that the best interest of the people is served.

"Ang gusto ni Governor Pineda, magkatulungan ang Kapitolyo at kaming mga MSWDO sa pagbibigay ng serbisyo sa ating mga kababayan, " Biccay added.

Biccay also pointed out that the governor wants every MSWDO to be on top of all situations so that problems of the people can be solved starting from the municipal level.

"Alam naman natin na maraming ginagawa ang gobernador at hindi niya ito magagawa ng maayos kung hindi natin siya tutulungan," she explained.

Pineda has scheduled another meeting with the MSWDOs to formally forge the details of cooperation between them and the Provincial Government in order to expedite the process of helping the people.

It can be recalled that the governor entertains at least 1,000 individuals daily, majority in need of financial and medical attention.
