Rescue Cab Drivers Making Way for Safer Philippine Streets

In the latest public service initiative by Kuya Daniel Razon, cab drivers now have the chance to make Philippine roads a safer avenue for public transport.

Rescue Cab: Tulong Muna Bago Pasada or "Rescue First, Transport Later" transforms regular taxi drivers into friendly neighborhood lifesavers by offering first aid and basic life support (BLS) trainings for free.

"If only all taxi drivers will learn rescue, maybe our roads will be safer, because I know that with the knowledge you will gain about rescuing, you will be more disciplined drivers," remarked the UNTV CEO.

The idea follows Razon's advocacy with the Public Service Channel's News Team, which values life more than the story they can make out of predicaments that people are involved in. Tulong Muna Bago Balita or Rescue First, Report Later was launched on July 28, 2010.

The first batch of cab drivers have already begun training where they are shown possible street scenarios they may encounter, and how to handle them properly. Participants will be handed certificates at the end of their training, attesting that they can perform first aid and BLS for the public.

When asked why he joined the undertaking, Guilredo Intano replied, "For me, it's so that I can help my fellows who I see on the streets and are involved in an accident."

For details on how to join the Rescue Cab training, or for more information, please contact the numbers displayed on the image below.

A Certain Thing I'm Thankful For

It’s hard writing how much Bro. Eli Soriano means to me. It will be his 50th birthday in the spirit come April 7 this year. And fathoming feelings of love and gratitude for a person as special as he is is never easy. Most certainly, such depths of emotion do not stem from fanaticism as some may easily and soullessly accuse me of. For if some take a great deal of joy hearing their religious leader greet them in their own tongue once in a while, how much more others whose preacher untiringly answers their scriptural queries and solves their spiritual problems, for free might I add? Nevertheless, this humble piece of writing is not one of contention, but of celebration. And as mentioned, of love and gratitude to a Filipino, a preacher, a leader like Bro. Eli Soriano. Where It All Began Thirteen years ago, my uncle brought me to this “magical” place called “Convention Center” in Apalit, Pampanga. In my head, it was the only term I could find to describe a plac...

Vandolph Thanks MCGI for Aid to Late Comedy King

Months after his father, Dolphy Quizon, passed away at age 83 due to multiple organ failure, Vandolph still remembers all the people who helped the Philippines’ late Comedy King. So on September 30, the third and last day of the Members Church of God International’s quarterly Thanksgiving, Vandolph dropped by the ADD Convention Center in Pampanga to give thanks to God and the Church. “First of all, thank God, of course,” remarked Vandolph after greeting “Hello and a good evening to all, to the whole world!” Especially in International Thanksgivings when the whole Church offers thanks to God, MCGI uses Internet and satellite facilities to connect remote points across the Philippines and the globe.
