The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has crippled Metro Manila, but amid the public fear and health crisis, the Luzon-wide enhanced community quarantine has had some uplifting consequences: it has brought out the best in Filipinos.
True enough, a good samaritan walked through the door of the Office of the Vice President in Quezon City to donate much-needed equipment to protect health workers and frontliners in the fight against COVID-19.
To show her appreciation, Vice President Leni Robredo personally received the boxes filled with protective personal equipment from Sunga and shared his story on social media. “I was at the office last night and this young, very unassuming man arrived telling us that he wants to donate,” Robredo said in a post.
Robredo said her office received a call from Sunga’s wife, but the OVP staff thought it was only a “scam” due to the dwindling supply of these items amid the COVID-19 outbreak.Robredo said Sunga was a “hulog na langit ” for his donations.
