Construction workers, ipinanawagang isali sa COVID-19 vaccine priority list

Nanawagan ngayon si CWS Partylist Rep. Romeo Momo sa National Task Force against COVID-19 na isali rin sa priority list ang construction workers.

Ayon kay Momo, dapat maisama ang construction workers sa mga unang mabibigyan ng bakuna kontra COVID-19.

Ayon sa mambabatas nasa main front din ng COVID-19 response sa ekonomiya ang nasabing sektor.

Diin ni Momo, ang construction workers ang backbone ng Build Build Build program ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte at iba pang construction related activities.

“Nevertheless, let me please point out that they are in the main front of our efforts in battling the economic devastation brought about by the pandemic, as they served as the backbone of President Rodrigo Roa Duterte’s ‘BUILD, BUILD, BUILD’ progam and other infrastructure-related activities,” ang paliwanag ni Rep . Romeo Momo ng CWS Party-list.

Punto pa ng kongresista, mahalaga ang continuity ng construction projects pampubliko at pribadong sektor sa pagpapa-angat ng ekonomiya sa kabila ng krisis na hatid ng COVID-19 pandemic.

“Our very productive construction workers are our economic frontliners as well, they are one of those who will bring about the very much needed  economic recovery and growth of our country, that is why they must also be given protection against the virus.”

Ngayong nakasalang sa ECQ ang NCR plus, tuloy parin ang construction activities sa mga lugar na sakop ng lockdown.

Kasabay nito ay nanawagan din si Momo sa mga construction operators na tiyakin ang kapakanan ng kanilang mga manggagawa lalo na ngayon at mahigpit sa Metro Manila at karatig lugar.

“Lastly, I would also like to make an appeal to the construction operators, management and officials to please do take good care and look after the welfare of your workers, especifically never abandon them now that the Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) has implemented the stricter Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) in Metro Manila, Rizal, Laguna, Cavite and Bulacan,”saad pa nito.
