These tablets, the mayor said, are intended for both frontline personnel, particularly from the Department of Engineering and Public Works (DEPW), Department of Public Services (DPS), and the Manila Traffic and Parking Bureau (MTPB), as well as for residents in barangays who may be vulnerable to infection during the rainy season.
Around 30,000 tablets of Paracetamol and 500 bottles of Paracetamol syrup were also donated by Garrod Inc.
Domagoso also welcomed representatives from the Korean Business Group, which pledged to donate 20,000 Capiz shell lights to the city.

The lights will be used to replace broken or non-functioning fixtures and to illuminate dark, tree-lined areas across Manila.
The project aims to improve public safety, while also enhancing the city’s visual appeal.

Lee, Consultant; Daniel Oh, Translator; Tim Dy, President and CEO; Antonio Ona, Director for International Affairs; Raynald Apostol, General Manager; and Jonmar Lutero, Marketing Head.
