UNANG HIRIT: Serbisyo on the Spot Reaches Brgy. Tugatog, Malabon City to Assist Typhoon-Affected Residents

Malabon City, July 29, 2025 – In a unified effort to extend much-needed government services to residents affected by Typhoons Dante and Emong, Serbisyo on the Spot was held today in Barangay Tugatog, Malabon City through the collaborative partnership of Unang Hirit and various national government agencies including PAG-IBIG Fund, GSIS, Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) Mobile Civil Registry and Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) National Capital Region Provincial Office IV (CAMANAVA).

The outreach event aimed to assist affected individuals in recovering vital government services –including the replacement of lost civil registry documents, National IDs and National ID in Paper (ePhilIDs), which are often required when applying calamity loans and other recovery assistance.

Through this initiative:    

• Affected residents were able to apply for Calamity Loans from PAG-IBIG and GSIS to help in recovery and rebuilding efforts.

• The PSA Mobile Civil Registry facilitated on-site requests for vital civil registry documents, such as Birth Certificates, Certificates of No Marriage (CENOMAR), Marriage Certificates, and Death Certificates.

• The PSA National Capital Region Provincial Office IV (CAMANAVA) provided National ID Services.

The PSA National ID System Booth accomplished the following:

• 11 affected residents successfully registered for National ID

• 23 affected residents received their National ID in Paper (ePhilID)

• 5 affected residents generated their Digital National ID via eGov application.

"These are more than just documents. These are gateways to aid, identity, and opportunity—especially in times of hardship,” said a representative from the PSA during the event.

The initiative is part of a broader national strategy to ensure that government services remain within reach, especially in disaster-stricken areas. The turnout and positive response from the residents underscore the importance of such grassroots-level engagement.

Residents expressed appreciation for the convenience and compassion shown during the event. "We feel seen and supported. Thank you for bringing these services directly to our barangay," shared one local beneficiary.
