After donating around 200 sacks of rice to Mexico, Pampanga, former San Simon Mayor Rodrigo “Digos” Canlas has sought the help of self-styled philanthropist Francis Marcos or FM.
“Nasusubaybayan ko po ang inyong Facebook sa inyong pagtulong sa iba bang lugal ng Pilipinas. Ako po ay natutuwa sa dami ng inyong natutulungan. Noon pa man po ay tumutulong na ako sa aking mga kababayan lalo na po ngayong panahon ng krisis,” said Canlas.
“Mr. Francis Leo Marcos tinatangap ko po ang hamon ninyo. Tulungan po natin ang bayan ng San Simon gaya ng pagtulong ninyo sa ibang panig ng ating bansa. Kung ano po ang maitutulong ninyo ako rin gusto ko rin tumulong, dodoblehin ko po dahil kawawa po ang mga kababayan ko sa San Simon,” said Canlas.
“Mr. Francis Marcos tulungan po natin ang bayan ko, hintayin ko po ang inyong kasagutan. Maraming Salamat po,” said Canlas.
Earlier this week, Mexico Mayor Teddy Tumang has appealed on FM to bring assistance to the people of Mexico, Pampanga.
FM had created a throng of followers after having given away hundreds of sacks of rice all over Metro Manila amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Mr. Francis Marcos, I am Mayor Teddy Tumang, municipal mayor of Mexico, Pampanga, I personally accept your challenge of helping our constituents during this COVID-19 pandemic,” said Tumang in a recorded video message.
“Just help my town Mexico, Pampanga. For every amount you give I will double it out of my own pocket. I will double whatever you will give just help us. You are welcome here. Mabuhay ka Mr. Francis Marcos we will wait for you here,” said Tumang.
FM earlier said he will send a truckload of rice to Mexico, Pampanga.
