Actor Piolo Pascual on Tuesday lauded the Quezon City government for its all-out support to its 69,000 persons with disabilities.

Along with Pascual, Ang Probinsyano party-list Rep. Alfred delos Santos yesterday spearheaded the distribution of wheelchairs and grocery items to select 100 registered PWDs at the 15th floor of the city hall’s high-rise building.

“We recognize the effort of Mayor Joy Belmonte in looking after the welfare of our clientele,” he told reporters at a news conference.

Pascual, for his part, said “I don’t know why I am doing this. But I do this.”

“I am just so happy to help the PWDs of Quezon City through the party-list,” he added.

The PDAO chief, however, warned those who falsify PWD identification cards in Quezon City.

Belmonte vowed to impose stricter measures in the application and issuance of such IDs to address reports of falsification of public records.
