The BPSF aims to bring essential services to different parts of the country.
It offers passport applications, laboratory and diagnostic services, medical and dental services, livelihood projects, social services, and distribution of agricultural products and assistance, among others.
Gabonada said Samar will be the last stop of the BPSF this year, which will be held on Nov. 22.
“Sixty national government agencies and 250 programs and services to be offered in Samar,” Gabonada said.
He added that the government will hold a “mini” BPSF in Camarines Sur, Camarines Norte, Albay, and Catanduanes as these were among the areas devastated by the succeeding tropical cyclones.
The BPSF will offer services including the emergency employment program of the Department of Labor and Employment, the health program of the Department of Health, and the housing program of the National Housing Authority in the four provinces in Bicol.
