The Makati Medical Center Foundation, in partnership with the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) and the Marawi City Government will construct a rural health center in Barangay Sagonsongan in this city.
According to 549 Engineering Battalion commanding officer Lt. Col. Jonjie Juguilon of the Joint Task Group Builders (JTG Builders), the rural health center will be equipped with a complete community package of facilities including mosque, school and provide health and medical services to the displaced communities of the Marawi siege.
“The rural health center is basically intended to provide services to the residents residing at the temporary shelters in Barangay Sagonsongan,” Juguilon said.
The project of the Makati Medical Center Foundation will also provide for the complete medical equipment and training component for medical professionals who will be manning the said center.
The military officer also said that AFP is committed to help in the realization of the project, noting that the military engineering brigade will immediately work on the construction of the rural health center right after the concreting of the development site.
LGU-Marawi City will take charge of the preparations of ground work for the construction of the center.
The rural health facility is expected to be completed by next month, “It will take around three weeks to construct the building,” Juguilon stated.
Juguilon expressed optimism on the essence of the health project that will give health services and medical treatment to the residents who are in need most affected by the armed-conflict in Marawi.
“We are not just doing this para lang sa isang mission pero talagang it’s a personal conviction naming, parang personal battle namin na talagang we should be sincere in helping the people in Marawi”, he said.
He also assured the residents of the related services from the military troops.
“Hanggang may nangangailangan, tutulong tayo. Kaya, at your service across the land yung commitment naming at hindi matatapos sa rehabilitasyon ang serbisyo natin, mahaba pa ito, hangga’t hindi pa tayo nakakapag-create ng environment that is conducive to economic growth. That’s the ultimate goal ng philippine army”, he added. (PIA ICCC)
