Mayor James “Bong” Gordon Jr. in cooperation with the Livelihood and Development Office (LCDO) awarded training equipment to Olongapo City District Jail recently in connection with the city’s advocacy to help the reformation of inmates.
Together with LCDO head Aileen Sanchez, Mayor Gordon turned over two (2) massage beds and 45 training kits to Jail Superintendent Alberto M. Balauag and Rev. Edgardro Pabanil.
These donations are in line with the Basic Massage Training being conducted by the LCDO to teach inmates of the benefits of traditional medicines and massage to the body’s healing process.
The said training started first week of July and will end on October 5, 2009. Among the lessons that inmates have learned are the basics in reflexology, hydrotherapy, herbal medicine and natural healing therapies.
