Davao solon’s initiatives help 163,000 individuals

Workers in the informal sector and senior citizens comprise almost half of the 163,000 individuals who directly benefited from the various initiatives of Davao City Rep. Paolo Duterte in his first year in the 19th Congress.

Congressional records showed that as of June 2023, Duterte authored 169 national and local bills, many of which aim to safeguard the welfare of senior citizens, persons with disabilities, seafarers, security guards, freelance workers, public school teachers, overseas Filipino workers, farmers and fisherfolk, media workers, calamity victims and other marginalized sectors.

“We will sustain and expand further our projects in Davao City so that we can assist more Dabawenyos in need. We will also continue to propose legislative measures that will help create more jobs, bring in more investments and reenergize the economy while protecting the welfare of society’s underprivileged sectors,” Duterte said.

“My commitment has always been to help build a stable, comfortable and secure future for our countrymen. This resolve, backed by concrete actions, is an unwritten qualification one must have upon entering public service,” he said.
