Government Retirees of Libacao
Libacao, Aklan


Excerpt from the minutes of the 1st quarterly meeting of the Government Retirees of Libacao (GROL), Libacao, Aklan Held in the Residence of Mrs. Azucena Zambrona, Libacao, Aklan on February 25, 2006.


Resolution No. 2006 – 01

A Resolution Appealing to the Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) not to implement the “No E–Card No Pension” Policy and continue paying the pensioners by checks sent through the PhilPost.

WHEREAS, the pensioners have spent the best years of their lives in the government working faithfully, honestly, loyally and with utmost dedication;

WHEREAS, since the first day of their services with the government, a good amount from their monthly salaries was judiciously collected and remitted to the GSIS for their own welfare in the future;

WHEREAS, the GSIS pensioners are already in their advance ages with impaired eyesight, quivering hands, and wobbling knees, therefore highly handicapped;

WHEREAS, the GSIS has its “NO E–Card No Pension “policy which will put all pensioners in jeopardy as they are physically handicapped not only to travel to the banks but more so to transact business with the bank;

WHEREAS, except for rural banks, all banks are located in Kalibo, the Capitol town of Aklan;

WHEREAS, the GSIS depository bank, the Union Bank is situated in Iloilo City and transacting with other banks will incur additional expenses on the part of the pensioners which is a diminution of the small amount of pension the pensioners receive even inadequate for their maintenance medicine;

NOW THEREFORE, on motion and duly seconded, be it resolved as it is hereby resolved to appeal to the GSIS management not to implement its “No E–Card No Pension” policy and continue paying the pensioners by checks sent through the PhilPost.

Resolved further, that copies of this resolution be furnished the President, GSIS Manila; Regional Manager, GSIS, Iloilo City; Congressman Florencio T. Miraflores, Governor Carlito S. Marquez and Vice Governor Ronquillo C. Tolentino all of Kalibo, Aklan; all Municipal Mayors of all municipalities of Aklan; all senators and congressmen of the Republic of the Philippines.
