Ramon “Rav” Rocamora has cheered at the bicameral conference panel’s passage of the Universal Health Care (UHC) bill, citing that the measure would reduce patronage politics in social services. Poverty will no longer be a hindrance to accessing crucial health services,” he said. Honest public officials address their constituents’ concerns as fast as possible without any hint of bias or favor. The current system provides openings for unscrupulous public officials to use healthcare as a tool for patronage politics,” Rocamora said.
