Persons with disabilities (PWDs) in San Remigio will get a PWD-friendly service vehicle from the provincial government. Cebu Governor Hilario Davide III approved the vehicle request in a meeting with the PWDs and local officials of the said municipality last July 1st at the Capitol.

The vehicle would cost around 800,000 pesos. The Governor also committed to the individual requests of PWD members like scratches and prosthetic feet. He also agreed in principle to make the Cebu capitol building more accessible to the PWDs by providing a ramp in its main entrance.
