KABAYAN PARTY-LIST FETES ORDINARY FILIPINA DR. CHARLIE JANDIC, THE ANGEL OF MRT-3
KABAYAN Party-list feted the post-graduate medical intern who administered first aid to the woman whose right arm was severed in a Metro Rail Transit Line 3 incident last week.
KABAYAN awarded the “Kabayan Bayani Award" to medical intern Charleanne “Charlie†Jandic in a special ceremony at Ayala Southpark, Alabang, Muntinlupa on Sunday afternoon.
The “KABAYAN Bayani Award is a recognition and celebration of heroic and deed of ordinary Filipinos.
KABAYAN Party-list Representative Ron Salo said he shall rename his bill on a national Emergency Medical Services System, House Bill 4955, and name it after Dr. Charlie Jandic, because we want that system and all Filipinos to follow her example of swift, decisive, appropriate and effective response to emergency medical situations.
“Heroism is all around us performed by ordinary people from all walks of life, yet it is oftentimes unrecognized and unacknowledged. Today, we seize the opportunity to celebrate and recognize heroism where it is due in order that we may inspire and encourage all Filipinos to also perform their heroic acts or deeds. Indeed, not all heroes are dead. Some are alive, like Dr. Jandic. She was at the right time, right place, and she did the right thing. She is KABAYAN Partylist’s first recipient of KABAYAN Bayani Award, which recognizes extraordinary act and deed of ordinary Filipinos,†Salo said during the conferment ceremony.
“What Dr. Charlie Jandic did was extraordinary because it happened outside of her usual hospital environment, in a very public place, and seen by the whole world through social media,†said KABAYAN 3rd nominee and soon to take oath as Member of the House of Representatives, Atty. Ciriaco Calalang.
“What Dr. Jandic did happens everyday in our hospitals, at the emergency rooms and trauma care facilities. What Dr. Jandic did was commonplace in a real war battlefield as many of our war veterans and soldiers know, especially those who were deployed to Marawi City. We honor her and the example she set so that Filipinos of today will realize that even in their ordinariness, they can be extraordinary and heroic,†Calalang added.
“Dr. Jandic trusted her values, instincts, and medical training. She was decisive. She assumed command of the crisis situation and saved the life of a stranger,†KABAYAN Secretary General Joshua Sebastian said.
Dr. Jandic accepted the award and a gift card and thanked the party-list group for the recognition.
“Maraming salamat sa parangal na bigay sa akin ng KABAYAN Partylist. Pero sa totoo lang po, hindi ko naman po inisip na mabigyan ng parangal o atensyon. Ginawa ko lang naman po ang hinihingi ng pagkakataon - ang tumulong sa nangangailangan gamit ang aking kaalaman at training bilang doktor,†Jandic said. (END)
