PUBLIC Attorney’s Office (PAO) chief Persida Rueda-Acosta assured the public on Sunday her agency would continue to extend free legal services through first lady Liza Araneta-Marcos’ Lab for All program.

“This is the kind of an initiative that we must fully support because more Filipino people are availing of all services being provided free by all concerned government agencies, including PAO,” Rueda-Acosta told The Manila Times in a Viber interview.

“There is no politics here. I see many elective officials, who may have different political party affiliations, but they are all joining the caravan, which is an initiative of the first lady and President Marcos Jr.,” she said.

Rueda-Acosta said she and other PAO officials would always make sure to join the Lab for All caravans that have reached even the remotest areas in the country.

“We really find this project worth keeping as it makes the government much closer to our fellow ‘kababayan’ (countrymen), especially those in far-flung areas where they have no immediate access, especially to legal and proper medical services, among others,” she said.

The Lab for All, which stands for Laboratoryo, Konsulta at Gamot para sa Lahat, was originally rolled out to make healthcare services more accessible through caravans that offer free consultation, health screening and assessment, laboratory tests and medicines.

Mrs. Marcos said it had been her husband’s primary goal that the government should go directly to the people and not the other way around.

“In keeping with my husband’s promise, we will continue to conduct our medical missions and provide access to different government services and even those from the private sector,” she said.

The PAO chief estimated that about 5,000 Mandaluyong City residents benefited from various services extended by the government agencies during the event.
