The high number of confirmed COVID-19
patients who are health workers prompted the mayor to do this help for them.
She adds that its just money, the work
of our medical health frontliners are immeasurable in this time of crisis.
“I contemplated to use this as trust fund for SPMC employees who tested
positive,” said Mayor Sara.
“I know this cannot compensate for all the fear, anxiety, and
exhaustion. Money cannot make up for everything but at least they would have
some money that they can use,” she adds.
Just like her
father, President Duterte
Just before the holy week, President Rodrigo Roa Duterte also decided to
donate one month of his salary for the COVID-19 war chest.
Prior to this majority of the Duterte cabinet also pledged to donate 75% of their monthly salaries for the months of
April to December.
