Senator Christopher "Bong" Go has reinforced his position as one of the top senatorial contenders, ranking 3rd to 4th in the latest Pulse Asia survey conducted from 26 November to 3 December. Known for his advocacy in health reforms, Go expressed gratitude for the public’s trust and reaffirmed his commitment to delivering compassionate service, particularly as the holiday season approaches.

Go’s awareness rating surged to 99%, while his voting preference climbed to 54.7%, a significant rise from 40.3% in September. His trust and performance ratings also improved compared to the previous quarter.

"Malaking pasasalamat ko sa mga kababayan natin na patuloy ang suporta at tiwala. Isa lang ang layunin ko: magserbisyo at makatulong sa kapwa ko Pilipino abot ng aking makakaya," Go stated, emphasizing his gratitude for the public's trust and his dedication to service.

"Ang aking sipag ang isa sa mga pwede kong i-alay sa kapwa natin Pilipino dahil bisyo ko ang magserbisyo," he added.

Go’s legislative accomplishments this year and over recent years have solidified his reputation as a public servant focused on bringing services closer to Filipinos, particularly in health, youth, sports, and disaster resilience, among others.

"Ang resulta ng mga survey na ito ay inspirasyon para sa akin na patuloy na magtrabaho para sa kapakanan ng ating mga kababayan. Ang tiwala na ibinibigay sa akin ay isang responsibilidad na kailangang tapatan ng patuloy na serbisyong may tunay na malasakit," Senator Go stated.

So far, Go has authored 16 laws, principally sponsored 80 laws—including 78 measures for the establishment or upgrade of public hospitals—and co-authored or co-sponsored 185 other laws.

"Hindi ko po sasayangin ang oportunidad na ibinibigay ninyo sa akin. Uunahin ko ang pagseserbisyo sa mga kapwa ko Pilipino," Go earlier said.

Among his most notable contributions is Republic Act No. 11463, also known as the Malasakit Centers Act of 2019, which he principally authored and sponsored. This law institutionalized the Malasakit Centers program, with 166 centers now operational across the country, providing critical assistance to over 15 million Filipinos.

Building on this, Go also played a key role in the enactment of Republic Act No. 11959, the Regional Specialty Centers Act, as a principal sponsor and one of its authors. The law mandates the establishment of regional specialty centers within Department of Health (DOH) regional hospitals, improving access to specialized medical services.

"Mahalaga na ang serbisyo ng gobyerno ay nararamdaman ng bawat Pilipino, kahit nasaang sulok pa sila ng bansa. Kaya naman sinisikap naming mapalapit ang tulong sa mga nangangailangan," Go shared, underscoring his commitment to accessible healthcare.

Go’s efforts extend beyond health. He recently principally authored and co-sponsored Republic Act No. 12076, or the Ligtas Pinoy Centers Act, which mandates the establishment of fully-equipped, dedicated evacuation centers nationwide. Signed into law on 6 December, this measure aims to protect families displaced by natural disasters.

Additionally, Go co-authored and co-sponsored Republic Act No. 12077, the Student Loan Payment Moratorium During Disasters and Emergencies Act. This law provides temporary financial relief to students with outstanding loans during calamities, a testament to his focus on alleviating the burdens of crises on vulnerable sectors.

Senator Go’s improved survey rankings mirror his tireless efforts to address the needs of the Filipino people. In PUBLiCUS Asia Inc.’s PAHAYAG 2024 End-of-the-Year Survey, conducted from 29 November to 3 December, Go topped the unaided voting preference category among senatorial aspirants and rose to fourth place in the aided voting preference—up from fifth place in October.
