PHL’s 100 millionth baby from Pangasinan celebrates lst birthday

Posted on July 28, 2015

LINGAYEN, Pangasinan, July 28 (PNA) -– Most Pangasinenses may not know it but the “Symbolic 100 Millionth Pinoy Baby” who was born at 12:20 a.m. of July 27, 2014 from their province has just turned one year old.

Jhon Paul Pedronio, who became the 100 millionth Filipino is the son of Jose Miguel and Pamela Pedronio of Barangay Inmalog Sur, San Fabian.

Jhon Paul was born at the Pangasinan Provincial Hospital (PPH) in Bolingit, San Carlos City.

Ellsworth Gonzales, Officer-in-Charge of Provincial Population Office (PPO) said Jhon Paul’s birth symbolized the government’s call to usher in hope for better quality of life, giving importance to the challenge to make Filipinos count in development where each Filipino is able to live in a healthy and livable environment.

Baby Jhon Pedronio’s birth was among the significant births made in the country in 2014 where the Population Commission said that babies born in the Philippines on July 27 at 12:06 a.m. or close to this time at the biggest government hospital in each locality will be recognized as a 100 millionth Pinoy baby.

The PPH, a hospital owned and managed by the provincial government, has the most number of babies born each day among all public and private hospitals in Pangasinan.

Jhon Paul was also awarded a PhilHealth Membership provided by the Department of Health (DOH) while the provincial government through the PPH had also assured Jhon Paul’s health, providing him complete immunization and newborn screening after his birth.

A team from the provincial government led by Gonzales turned over Php10,000-worth of gifts for baby Pedronio on his birthday which coincided with the third birthday celebration of his brother, Paul Jake. (PNA)
