His unwavering dedication to public service and national security embodies the true Bayanihan spirit.

To our medical team, caring for a leader of such integrity and humility is not just a duty—it’s a privilege. COL PACQUIAO, your life is a testament to selfless service, whether through legislation, military commitment, or uplifting those around you.
