In a recent visit to Iloilo City for a national rally organized by Alyansa Para sa Bagong Pilipinas, Senator Ramon ‘Bong’ Revilla Jr. expressed his commitment to revising the national Building Code to better protect against seismic activities. Speaking ahead of the rally on February 13, 2025, the senator, who is running for re-election, stressed the importance of evaluating existing structures to decide whether they need reinforcement or should be torn down for public safety.
Revilla also underscored the necessity of developing a comprehensive master plan to tackle the escalating flood issues across the country. He aligned his vision with the initiatives of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., emphasizing the urgency of addressing the flooding crisis.
During his campaign stop, Revilla appealed to the Ilonggo electorate by showcasing his extensive legislative achievements. He has been involved in the creation, co-creation, sponsorship, or co-sponsorship of more than 2,000 pieces of legislation, with 343 of these becoming law. Notable among his contributions are the Anti-No Permit, No Exam Law, the Kabalikat sa Pagtuturo Act, and the Expanded Centenarians Law, which extends benefits to centenarians.
