My deepest gratitude to the members of the Philippine Senate for approving the proposed budget of the Office of the Vice President in a decision that demonstrates confidence and trust by the honorable senators of the integrity, commitment, and dedication of the OVP to good governance and public service.

The approval bolsters the OVP’s determination to ensure that social services and other government programs and projects reach communities and bring about positive development and provide solutions to the problems of our fellow Filipinos across the country — especially those who are living in underprivileged communities and those battered by natural calamities and armed conflicts.

Daghang salamat.

Sara Z. Duterte
Vice President of the Philippines
