Senator Christopher Lawrence "Bong" Go expressed his gratitude to the Filipino people for allowing him to serve them as he reaffirmed his commitment to continue helping more vulnerable sectors nationwide following his consistent trust and satisfaction ratings.
In a recent survey, the senator posted a 74 percent overall trust rating in October 2022, which is 24 percent higher compared to his December 2021 rating of 50 percent which also marked an increase as he improved in all major areas and socio-economic classes.
Per region, 100 percent of adult Filipinos in Cordillera Administrative Region trust and are satisfied with the performance of Go as he also received full marks in terms of trust in Ilocos and Davao regions.
Just like in the 18th Congress, Go continues to chair the Senate Committees on Health and on Sports and to recall, the senator during the 18th Congress co-authored various landmark laws, including the Malasakit Centers Act of 2019.
While serving as the then Special Assistant to the President of the erstwhile Duterte administration, he spearheaded the launch of the Malasakit Centers Program which put under one roof various government agencies that provide medical assistance to poor and indigent patients, such as the Department of Health, Department of Social Welfare and Development, Philippine Health Insurance Corporation and Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office.
Go's brainchild program continues to make it convenient and fast for financially incapacitated Filipinos to reduce their hospital bills to the lowest amount possible. It now has 153 Malasakit Centers in all regions nationwide and has benefitted more than four million Filipinos so far.
The senator was also responsible for shepherding the passage of various hospital bills that either expanded existing government hospitals or established new ones, strengthening further the country's healthcare system.
