The Senate on Monday (Nov 14) approved the proposed budget of the Office of the Vice President for fiscal year 2023.
Vice President Sara Duterte thanked the senate for its decision that showed confidence in the integrity, ability, and dedication of the OVP to good governance and public service.
Only months after the Vice President assumed office, the OVP has already created satellite offices in seven key areas in the country. It also created the Disaster Risk Relief Operations Center, and implemented the expanded Medical and Burial assistance program, Libreng Sakay program, PagbaBAGo Campaign, and Kalusugan Food Trucks.
Next year, Mag-Negosyo 'Ta Day, Peace 911, and the construction of a permanent residence of the Office of the Vice President that can be used by future Vice Presidents of the country will be implemented.
