While dining, the President and his trusted aide invited Alma O. Pardillo, an OFW based in Hong Kong, to break bread with them while hearing the latter's concerns. The President then vowed to provide Pardillo assistance so she could get proper medical attention for her 9-year old child, who is suffering from a lung ailment. The President also committed to shoulder the roundtrip airfare of Pardillo so she can go home to attend the college graduation of her child and to be with her children whom she hasn't seen for a long time.
