A total of 4,330 personnel of the city government of Angeles City, Pampanga, will be receiving 10 kilos of rice on the 1st of December 2022 from the local government of Angeles City led by Angeles City Mayor Carmelo Lazatin Jr.
The expected recipients of the rice subsidy are 13 elected officials in the city; 1,217 permanent, casual, and contractual personnel; and 3,100 Contract of Service employees.
Flordeliza Santos, president of the Association of Government Employees for a New Dynamic Angeles City (AGENDA), conveyed her thankfulness to Mayor Carmelo ‘Pogi’ Lazatin Jr. for his generosity not just to the government employees, but also to their families.
“Hindi po namin inaasahan na bukod sa mga benepisyo na inanunsyo ay may rice subsidy pa. He is truly working hard to show his appreciation to the employees by providing us with these kinds of benefits despite the effects of the pandemic,” Santos uttered.
It’s a piece of surprising news for Santos, apart from the 10 kg of rice, they will also be receiving P17,000 additional benefits for the 1,230 permanent, casual, and contractual workers and P3,000 year-end gratuity for 3,100 COS employees.
“Mula noong unang pag-upo po nya bilang mayor hanggang ngayon po ay hindi nagbago ang kanyang malasakit sa ating mga employees. Muli po, maraming salamat po Mayor Pogi! Mabuhay po kayo,” Santos also emphasized.
All workers will be given a chance to win prizes such as cash prizes, appliances, and grocery packages at this year’s City Hall Online Christmas Party besides the 10 kg of rice.
