‘Hindi lang pangako ang plano natin’: Robredo finalizes blueprint for COVID freedom

Vice President Leni Robredo is set to release on Wednesday, November 3, her blueprint on how Filipinos can survive the COVID-19 pandemic.

The proposed rescue plan includes inputs from Robredo’s consultations from health experts, economists, medical professionals, workers, and other Filipinos affected by the pandemic. The presidential aspirant talked about her planned COVID-19 recovery strategy in a latest video message on Facebook.

“Malinaw sa aming pakikipag-usap na walang pinili ang pandemya. Lahat ng Pilipino, apektado. Bukas, maglalabas kami ng video. Balangkas ito ng plano para makalaya tayo sa COVID,” she said.

“Base ito sa pakikipag-usap natin sa mga eksperto, kasama na dito ang mga epidemiologist, mga public health consultants, mga ekonomista, at iba pa. Higit sa lahat, hinango natin ang mga solusyon sa aktuwal na karanasan ng mga nurse, ng mga doktor, ng mga empleyado, at karaniwang Pilipinong nagtitiis at nagsasakripisyo, at nagluluksa ngayong pandemya,” she said.

Filipinos continue to live under various levels of lockdown since the COVID-19 pandemic hit the country last year. Authorities have started to ease the movement restrictions in Metro Manila and some parts of the country in an effort to revive the sluggish economy and spur employment.

In the same Facebook post, Robredo appealed to her supporters, known as kakampinks, to reach out to the victims of the pandemic especially those who lost their loved ones and jobs, and spread the word about the COVID action plan. She said the COVID response initiatives are not just empty promises but programs already proven effective.

“Damhin ang pinagdaanan nila; ang pangamba at kawalang-katiyakan na nagbibigkis sa ating lahat. Ibahagi ang katotohanan: Kung may malinaw na stratehiyang nagbubukal sa malasakit, makakalaya tayo mula sa pandemya,” she said.

“Sa mga nakasama natin sa COVID response initiatives natin, ikuwento ninyo: Hindi lang pangako ang plano natin. Napatunayan na natin ang kayang gawin ng malinis at maayos na pamamahala,” said Robredo, who initiated programs such as free COVID testing and medical consultation and vaccination drive.

Robredo, who is seeking the presidency as an independent candidate, traveled to her home region of Bicol last week. The veep earlier said pink is not just a political color but a way of life, particularly in spreading love and kindness across the country

Robredo previously criticized the Duterte administration for its poor COVID-19 response and called for intensified testing, tracing, and vaccination efforts.
