The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) fulfilled one of its promises to the Philippine Military Academy (PMA) on Thursday, February 20, with the turnover of a Patient Transport Vehicle (PTV) that it donated to the academy.
The simple turnover was held at the PAGCOR Corporate Office in Pasay City.
The donated vehicle is the first of 246 PTVs set for distribution to LGUs and organizations nationwide to help enhance the country’s healthcare system, according to PAGCOR Chairman and CEO Alejandro H. Tengco.
The PTV was received by PMA officials led by Commanding Officer Col. Nealon Eugene P. Batalla.
“On behalf of PMA Superintendent Admiral Valencia, we thank PAGCOR for this donation,” Col. Batalla said. “This will greatly benefit our cadets and personnel who need urgent medical transfers to bigger tertiary hospitals.”
The fully equipped PTV features a GPS navigation system, ambulance stretcher, medical oxygen, wheelchair and a first aid kit, ensuring swift and safe patient transport.
