Ping: Pwede Namang Mamuhay nang Normal Pero Listo pa Rin sa COVID

Sa pagkabugbog ng ating ekonomiya at sektor ng kalusugan dahil sa epekto ng dalawang taon nang pandemya, sinabi ni Partido Reporma standard-bearer Sen. Panfilo “Ping” Lacson na napapanahon na para baguhin ang mindset ng mga Pilipino patungo sa pamumuhay habang nananatili ang banta ng COVID-19.

Nauunawaan ni Lacson na mahalaga pa rin ang kaligtasan at kalusugan ng bawat Pilipino ngunit kinakailangan na umanong tanggapin ang buhay na mayroong umiiral na COVID-19 upang magkaroon ng kaukulang pag-iingat laban sa virus habang pinasisigla ang ekonomiya.

Lacson to Gov’t: Consider Moving Towards Endemic Mindset to Help Economy Recover

A suggestion to remove the Covid alert system as lockdowns become more granular will give our battered economy a badly needed chance to recover, Partido Reporma standard-bearer Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson said Tuesday.

But Lacson stressed the health and economic officials concerned must learn from the past and adopt a sense of urgency in studying – and implementing – such options.

“It’s about time. Talagang matindi ang inabot ng ekonomiya natin for the past two years (It’s about time. Our economy has suffered in the past two years),” he said in an interview on DWIZ radio, when asked if he favors a suggestion by presidential adviser for entrepreneurship Joey Concepcion to remove the alert level system.

Lacson-Sotto, Kinakasa na ang Mga Panukalang Solusyon sa Pandemya

Isang mahusay na estratehiya na nakatuon sa kalusugan at ekonomiya ang hinahanda ngayon nina Senador Ping Lacson at Senate President Tito Sotto bilang pagtugon sa pandemya, sakaling palarin silang manalo sa eleksyon sa Mayo 2022.

Binigyang diin ito ni Lacson nitong Martes kasabay ng kanyang panawagan na unahin ang pagbabakuna sa mas nakakararaming populasyon, dahil hindi lubos na mabubuksan ang ating ekonomiya kung hindi makakamit ang herd immunity.

“Dalawa ang napakalaking problema sa pandemic: Health at economy. Vaccination ang Number 1 solution dahil nakita natin sa ibang bansa pag mataas ang vaccination rate nakabukas sila ng ekonomiya. Yan dapat pag-ukulan natin ng pansin,” ani Lacson sa kanyang panayam nitong umaga sa DZRH.

Lacson-Sotto Tandem Readies Two-Pronged Solution to Deal With Pandemic

A two-pronged strategy centering on health and the economy will highlight the response of Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson and Senate President Vicente “Tito” C. Sotto III to the Covid pandemic and its lingering effects, should they win in the May 2022 general elections.

Lacson said this on Tuesday even as he stressed vaccination will be the first step to all these, as the efforts to reopen our economy cannot take place without achieving herd immunity first.

“Dalawa ang napakalaking problema sa pandemic: Health at economy. Vaccination ang Number 1 solution dahil nakita natin sa ibang bansa pag mataas ang vaccination rate nakapagbukas sila ng ekonomiya. Yan dapat pag-ukulan natin ng pansin (The pandemic has brought two big problems, to our health and our economy. Vaccination is the Number One solution because in other countries, economies will reopen if the vaccination rate is high. So that is what we need to focus on),” he said in an interview on DZRH radio.

Speech Before the Rotary Club of Parañaque North

Tonight, I am grateful as it is my honor and privilege to address, albeit virtually, a group of committed and passionate individuals, who continue to render unwavering service to our fellowmen.

As I speak to all of you today, I believe that I would be remiss if I will not confide to you the mixed feelings that keep me up at night, so to speak.

Truth be told – in my years of existence, never in my wildest imagination have I ever thought that Filipinos would come to live in such despair, uncertainty and worst – fear.
