Pasig Residents Demand Action: 'Ate Sarah' Calls for Tangible Public Service, Not Just Promises
Manila Bulletin

Pasig City residents are yearning for more than just promises of good governance; they need concrete and tangible public services to thrive, according to mayoral candidate Sarah 'Ate Sarah' Discaya. In an increasingly challenging economic landscape, Discaya emphasizes that the focus must shift from abstract ideals to delivering practical solutions that directly impact the lives of Pasigueños.

“Good governance is important, of course, but it’s simply not enough anymore,” Discaya stated during a recent community forum. “Our people are struggling. They need accessible healthcare, affordable housing, better job opportunities, and a safer environment. These are the tangible services that will truly make a difference.”

Discaya’s campaign is centered on a platform of responsiveness and direct engagement with the community. She has been actively listening to the concerns of residents throughout Pasig, identifying key areas where improvements are urgently needed. Her proposals include:

  • Enhanced Healthcare Access: Expanding free clinics and improving the quality of public hospitals to ensure all residents have access to affordable medical care.
  • Affordable Housing Initiatives: Partnering with private developers and exploring innovative housing solutions to address the city’s housing shortage and provide safe, affordable homes for low-income families.
  • Job Creation Programs: Supporting local businesses and attracting new investments to create meaningful employment opportunities for Pasigueños, with a focus on skills training and vocational programs.
  • Improved Public Safety: Increasing police visibility, investing in crime prevention programs, and strengthening community partnerships to create a safer and more secure environment for all.
  • Environmental Sustainability: Implementing green initiatives, promoting responsible waste management, and protecting the city’s natural resources for future generations.

Discaya believes that a proactive and results-oriented approach is essential to addressing the challenges facing Pasig City. She argues that traditional political rhetoric about ‘good governance’ often falls short of delivering real improvements in people's lives. Instead, she advocates for a government that is accountable, transparent, and focused on delivering tangible outcomes.

“I’m not making empty promises,” Discaya asserted. “I’m offering a clear plan to deliver the essential public services that Pasigueños deserve. My commitment is to work tirelessly alongside the community to build a brighter future for our city.”

The upcoming election presents a crucial opportunity for Pasigueños to choose a leader who prioritizes action and tangible results. Sarah 'Ate Sarah' Discaya’s message of practical solutions and community engagement is resonating with voters who are seeking a genuine change in leadership and a renewed focus on their needs.
