Supervised agencies, colleagues in the Senate, Senator Aimee, magandang hapon po sa ating lahat.

00:10:31Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000022

Today we will hear the proposed Fiscal Year 2027 budget of the Department of Social Welfare and Development. Sa budget hearing na ito, simple ang prinsipyo natin. Kapag may pamilyang nagugutom, nawawala ng trabaho o kabuhayan, nakakasakit o tinatamaan ng sakuna, dapat may gobyernong sasalo. I’m fully aware that the House-approved GAAB provides P262.757 billion in new appropriations for DSWD, higher than the NEP, although still below the 2026 GAA program level.

00:11:07Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000023

We take note of the adjustments made by our colleagues in the House of Representatives. AICS increases to about 58.1 billion pesos. The Quick Response Fund is restored to 3 billion pesos. The Sustainable Livelihood Program increases to almost 6 billion pesos. But more money must mean better social protection.

00:11:31Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000024

Una, we must protect 4Ps as a rights-based investment in poor families and their children. If families graduate from 4Ps, graduation must mean more than losing a grant. They should have a real pathway to education, skills, employment, livelihood, and continued access to basic services. Hindi graduation ang mawalan ng benepisyo.

00:11:57Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000025

Pangalawa, we must protect our senior citizens.

00:12:00Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000026

The social pension remains a lifeline for millions of indigent seniors, yet many qualified senior citizens remain on the waiting or remain waiting for assistance.

00:12:12Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000027

At 1,000 pesos a month, we must also keep asking whether the benefit remains adequate given the rising cost of food, medicine, and transportation.

00:12:22Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000028

Pangatlo, AICs must remain a genuine social safety net.

00:12:27Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000029

Ang tulong ay hindi pabor.

00:12:31Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000030

Dapat nakabatay sa pangangailangan, hindi sa kung sino ang kakilala o kung sino ang nag-refer.

00:12:37Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000031

We need stronger controls against duplicate payments, but digitization must not exclude people without bank accounts, without a phone, with poor connectivity, or with incomplete records.

00:12:53Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000032

Pang-apat, we must also prepare for the Super El Niño and other climate shocks.

00:12:57Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000033

The restoration of the QRF is important, but DSWD must be ready before families reach a crisis point with food assistance, emergency cash, cash for work, livelihood support, and coordination with LGUs.

00:13:15Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000034

At the same time, we recognize DSWD's investment in disaster response and rehabilitation programs, such as Project Lawa at Binhi,

00:13:26Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000035

as well as its investment in longer-term climate resilience through the Philippine Community Resilience Project or Panahon ng Pagkilos.

00:13:35Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000036

Emergency response and long-term resilience must work together,

00:13:40Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000037

helping communities survive today's shocks while reducing their vulnerability to future disasters.

00:13:47Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000038

We also welcome the allocation of resources to support vulnerable groups

00:13:51Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000039

through Enhanced Protect Teen, Project Aruga, Project SAFE,

00:13:57Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000040

and the Special Committee on LGBTQIA Plus Affairs,

00:14:01Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000041

programs and initiatives that support adolescent mothers and their families,

00:14:07Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000042

children with disabilities and their caregivers,

00:14:10Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000043

child survivors of online sexual abuse and exploitation,

00:14:14Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000044

and LGBTQIA Plus communities.

00:14:17Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000045

These initiatives remind us that social protection must be inclusive,

00:14:21Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000046

and reach those who are often invisible and whose needs are overlooked in major budget allocations.

00:14:29Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000047

The test of this budget is not simply how DSWD obligates.

00:14:35Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000048

An obligation is not yet food on the table.

00:14:38Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000049

It is not yet medicine bought.

00:14:40Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000050

It is not yet a pension received.

00:14:42Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000051

It is not yet a livelihood restored.

00:14:45Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000052

It is not yet relief reaching a family in crisis.

00:14:50Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000053

Ang tunay na sukatin,

00:14:52Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000054

ay simple.

00:14:54Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000055

Did government reach people before they reached the breaking point and help them?

00:15:00Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000056

become more resilient afterward.

00:15:03Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000057

At bilang budget sponsor,

00:15:04Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000058

kinikilala ko ang pangangailangan

00:15:06Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000059

para sa

00:15:14Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000060

tulad ng social insurance

00:15:17Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000061

at social security.

00:15:18Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000062

At para sa akin,

00:15:20Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000063

tatlo lang ang mahalaga nating bantayan.

00:15:24Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000064

Napapanahon

00:15:24Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000065

o tugma ba sa krisis?

00:15:27Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000066

Tama o nakararating ba

00:15:29Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000067

sa tamang tao

00:15:30Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000068

sa tamang panahon?

00:15:32Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000069

At sapat ba

00:15:34Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000070

o enough ba ang ayuda

00:15:36Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000071

para talagang makatulong?

00:15:39Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000072

With these considerations,

00:15:40Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000073

I invite everyone to listen

00:15:42Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000074

to the budget presentation of DSWD

00:15:45Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

00:16:11Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000086

and propose amendments for the agencies

00:16:13Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000087

leading up to the plenary.

00:16:15Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

Together, let us ensure

00:16:27Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000094

that

00:16:27Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000095

The 2027 budget is a meaningful

00:16:30Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000096

step toward transformative

00:16:32Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000097

social protection.

asr-000147

allow me to bring forth this budget

00:18:13Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000148

hearing a very crucial and pressing issue.

00:18:16Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000149

The fake PWD

00:18:18Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000150

IDs.

00:18:20Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000151

Ang talamak na pagkalat

00:18:21Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000152

ng mga faking PWD IDs na

00:18:23Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000153

ginagamit upang manloko ng kapwa tao at

00:18:26Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000154

sa gobyerno, higit sa lahat.

00:18:27Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000155

Ito ay isang modus

00:18:29Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000156

kung saan ang pinakakawawa

00:18:31Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000157

ay ang mga liitimong may kapansanan

00:18:33Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000158

na dapat sila makinabang sa diskwentong

00:18:36Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000159

20%.

00:18:37Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000160

These are the current and very alarming

00:18:39Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000161

facts. Out of

00:18:41Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000162

8 million IDs

00:18:43Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000163

issued,

00:18:45Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000164

6 million are fake

00:18:47Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000165

PWD IDs based

00:18:49Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000166

on DOJ report.

00:18:52Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000167

Only 2 million IDs

00:18:53Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000168

are legitimate and

00:18:55Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000169

registered with the NCDA.

00:18:57Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000170

This modus has resulted

00:19:00Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000171

to 88 billion pesos

00:19:02Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000172

in lost tax revenues

00:19:04Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000173

for the government.

00:19:06Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000174

And this translates to

00:19:07Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000175

166 billion losses

00:19:09Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000176

in revenues for business establishments

We have more than 2,500

RestoPH President David Sison

asr-000214

LGUs dito. And iba-iba

00:20:27Source

RestoPH President David Sison

asr-000215

yung disenyo ng bawat ID.

00:20:30Source

RestoPH President David Sison

asr-000216

Nagbigay ng statement yung Department of Justice

00:20:31Source

RestoPH President David Sison

asr-000217

na nagulat sila na meron palang

00:20:33Source

RestoPH President David Sison

asr-000218

6 million na fake

00:20:35Source

RestoPH President David Sison

asr-000219

PWD IDs.

00:20:37Source

RestoPH President David Sison

asr-000220

And mas malaki pa yung nawawalang pera

00:20:40Source

RestoPH President David Sison

asr-000221

sa mga restaurant owners

00:20:41Source

RestoPH President David Sison

asr-000222

because of the fake na lumalaganap.

00:20:44Source

RestoPH President David Sison

asr-000223

May mga restaurants na maliliit

00:20:46Source

RestoPH President David Sison

asr-000224

lang, hindi ganong kalaki.

00:20:47Source

RestoPH President David Sison

asr-000225

Lahat ng mga margin na pwede nilang isave,

00:20:49Source

RestoPH President David Sison

asr-000226

magagamit nila. Pero syempre kung

00:20:51Source

RestoPH President David Sison

asr-000227

napupunta lang ito sa mga fake

00:20:53Source

RestoPH President David Sison

asr-000228

na cards, sa fake na

00:20:55Source

RestoPH President David Sison

asr-000229

discount, kawawa naman.

00:20:57Source

RestoPH President David Sison

asr-000230

Yan ang pinaglalaban natin.

RestoPH President David Sison

Kasi sila talaga yung araw-araw

RestoPH President David Sison

asr-000232

na magsusurvive lang.

00:21:05Source

RestoPH President David Sison

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000259

Ito pong masaklap, Madam Chair.

00:22:03Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000260

Maraming kakilala

00:22:03Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000261

na pagkalaki-laki

00:22:06Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000262

ng katawan,

00:22:07Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000263

tambay sa basketball

00:22:08Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000264

at meron siyang PWD ID.

00:22:12Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000265

Lalaaki ito. Tinanong ko siya, pare,

00:22:13Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000266

ba't meron kang PWD ID?

00:22:16Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000267

Ano yung kapansana mo?

00:22:17Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000268

Hindi, psychosocial ako.

00:22:19Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000269

Totoo yan. Napakarami

00:22:21Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000270

mga tao ang lalaki ng katawan

00:22:22Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000271

may mga magagandang trabaho

00:22:25Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000272

and yet may PWD ID.

00:22:26Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000273

Paano?

00:22:27Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000274

Mga kalusot mga ito.

00:22:28Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000275

Of course, walang problema sa akin

00:22:30Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000276

kung talagang tunay na may kapansanan.

00:22:31Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000277

Siguro it's time na we have to define

00:22:33Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000278

ano ba talaga

00:22:34Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000279

ang mga requirements bago makatanggap

00:22:38Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000280

ng PWD ID ang isang tao.

00:22:40Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000281

Anong klaseng makapansanan?

00:22:41Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000282

Kasi halos lahat mga kilala ko

00:22:44Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000283

na may PWD ID na ang lalaki ng katawan

00:22:47Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000284

nakalagay doon psychosocial.

00:22:50Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000285

Meron pa nga sabi ko,

00:22:51Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000286

ba't ka merong PWD ID?

00:22:53Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000287

Kasi may sinusitis ako eh.

00:22:54Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000288

At binigyan ng doktor.

00:22:57Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000289

Meron pa ako alam, basketballista.

00:22:59Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000290

Mga basketball player, Madam Chair,

00:23:02Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000291

medyo nabalian lang.

00:23:04Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000292

Pupunta ng hospital.

00:23:05Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000293

O, pera ng doktor.

00:23:06Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000294

Gusto mo, bigyan kita ang PWD ID.

00:23:07Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000295

Sige, bigyan.

00:23:08Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000296

And then permanently,

00:23:10Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000297

permanent na yung PWD ID.

00:23:12Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000298

Naabuso po yung PWD ID

00:23:16Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000299

at ang kawawa po dito

00:23:17Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000300

yung mga malilit na tindahan,

00:23:19Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000301

restaurant.

00:23:20Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000302

Saan ka nakikita yung isang tao

00:23:23Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000303

na magandang trabaho,

00:23:26Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000304

malaking katawan,

00:23:27Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000305

o punta sa restaurant

00:23:28Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000306

o order ng lobster, crabs,

00:23:30Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000307

para makuha ng 20%.

00:23:31Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000308

Tapos niya naakit sa hotel,

00:23:33Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000309

mag-check-in,

00:23:34Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000310

20% na naman.

00:23:35Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000311

Naabuso po talaga itong PWD ID

00:23:37Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000312

at ang nakikita kong problema rito,

00:23:39Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000313

siguro from now on,

00:23:40Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000314

meron kasi mga PWD ID na legit.

00:23:45Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000315

Pero fake naman yung cardholder.

00:23:49Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000316

Wala naman talagang sakit.

00:23:50Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000317

Pero mas marami yung fake na PWD ID.

00:23:53Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000318

It's about time that we have to address this issue

00:23:56Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000319

na para naman mabawasan yung pamimaking ng PWD ID

00:23:59Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000320

at mabigyan yung karapat-dapat talaga

00:24:02Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000321

na mga taong may kapansanan.

00:24:05Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000322

Kasi ang premise naman talaga ng batas

00:24:08Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000323

kaya nagkaroon tayo ng discount sa mga PWDs

00:24:12Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000324

ay sila ay matulungan,

00:24:15Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000325

mapagaan yung kanilang kalagayan

00:24:16Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000326

and most of them walang trabaho,

00:24:19Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000327

hindi makapagtrabaho.

00:24:20Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000328

Makapagtrabaho man, part-time lang

00:24:22Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000329

and then malaking gastusin sa gamot.

00:24:26Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000330

Pero paano itong mga taong alam ko

00:24:30Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000331

may mga trabaho above minimum

00:24:33Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000332

ang lalaki ng katawan

00:24:34Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000333

and yet nagkakaroon ng fake PWD IDs?

00:24:38Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000334

Ang tanong nasa National Center for Disability Affairs

00:24:41Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000335

kayong hensyang natasang siguraduhin

00:24:44Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000336

maayos ang implementasyon ng lahat ng batas

00:24:46Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000337

patungkol sa PWDs

00:24:47Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000338

pero mga inutil kayo.

00:24:50Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000339

Sobrang inutil as a matter of fact.

00:24:53Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000340

Bakit umabot sa katakot-takot

00:24:54Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000341

na 6 million ng mga faking IDs?

00:24:56Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000342

Paano nakalusot ito?

00:24:58Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000343

Wala ba kayong koordinasyon

00:24:59Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000344

with other agencies at sa LGUs?

00:25:02Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000345

Wala ba kayong ngipin

00:25:03Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000346

upang masigurang implementasyon ng batas?

00:25:06Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000347

Bakit wala kayong kakayahan

00:25:07Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000348

na imonitor ang problemang ito

00:25:10Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000349

na nagsimula pa noong pandemic?

00:25:13Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000350

Madam Chair,

00:25:14Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000351

my purpose is to uphold the rights

00:25:16Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000352

and protect persons with disabilities

00:25:18Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000353

not to discredit them.

00:25:21Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000354

Nais kumatsyak na matatanggap

00:25:23Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000355

ng mga liitimong PWD

00:25:24Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000356

ang mga binipisyong

00:25:25Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000357

itinakda ng batas.

00:25:28Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000358

Hindi makatarungan maging dahilan

00:25:29Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000359

ang pamemeke ng mga scammer

00:25:31Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000360

upang pagdudahan ang pagbibigay ng diskwento

00:25:34Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000361

sa mga tunay na nangangailangan nito.

00:25:37Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000362

We may also need to review

00:25:38Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000363

existing laws to clarify

00:25:40Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000364

which disabilities

00:25:42Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000365

qualify for government benefits.

00:25:46Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000366

These benefits are grounded

00:25:47Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000367

in social justice

00:25:48Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000368

and the Philippine Constitution

00:25:49Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000369

which affirms the dignity

00:25:51Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000370

of every person and guarantees

00:25:54Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000371

full respect for human rights.

00:25:55Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000372

Huwag nating gamitin sa kalokohan

00:25:58Source

Senator Raffy T. Tulfo

asr-000373

ang talagayan ng ating mga kababayang

00:25:59Source

including 29.4 billion for subsidies,

00:37:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000599

will help individuals and families in crisis

00:37:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

meet urgent needs,

00:37:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000601

access essential services,

00:37:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000602

and recover from financial and personal hardships.

00:37:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000603

However, additional resources

00:37:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000604

may be needed to keep pace

00:37:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000605

with the growing demand

00:37:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000606

and sustain these outcomes.

00:37:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

Your Honors,

00:37:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000608

AICS is evolving into an instrument

00:37:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000609

for adaptive and shock-responsive social protection.

00:37:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000610

Under the President's Uplift Initiative,

00:37:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000611

we provided 5,000 cash assistance

00:37:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000612

to 1.839 million transport workers.

00:37:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000613

A rapid SWS assessment

00:37:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000614

found that 96% considered the grant crucial

00:37:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000615

to keeping them on the road,

00:37:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000616

while 80% use it for food,

00:37:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000617

while we also provided top-up support

00:37:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000618

for existing beneficiaries

00:37:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000619

and extended aid to vulnerable households

00:37:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000620

identified through CBMS data.

00:37:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000621

This demonstrates how AICS can scale up support

00:38:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000622

and reach families vulnerable to economic shocks

00:38:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000623

when they need it the most.

00:38:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000624

Another key investment is the social protection pension

00:38:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000625

for indigent senior citizens,

00:38:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000626

providing vital income support to our older persons.

00:38:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000627

In 2025, we serve 4.11 million beneficiaries.

00:38:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000628

For 2026,

00:38:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000629

utilization is at 88%

00:38:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000630

as we enroll new beneficiaries

00:38:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000631

with 51 billion available to expand coverage.

00:38:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000632

For 2027,

00:38:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000633

the 51.6 billion budget allots 50 billion for subsidies.

00:38:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000634

We would like to flag that based on CBMS data,

00:38:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000635

at least 550,000 older seniors,

00:38:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000636

older persons remain unserved

00:38:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000637

and we hope to extend social pension

00:38:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000638

to these senior citizens.

00:38:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000639

For social pension,

00:38:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000640

we are making implementation simpler,

00:38:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000641

fairer, and more responsive,

00:38:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000642

in support of the progressive realization

00:38:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000643

of universal social pension.

00:38:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000644

First, we removed the requirement

00:38:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000645

to provide frailty or sickliness eligibility.

00:39:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000646

Eligibility is now based on age,

00:39:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000647

with enrollment prioritized by age.

00:39:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000648

Second, we shifted to data-driven targeting

00:39:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000649

using CBMS data,

00:39:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000650

cross-checked with SSS, GSIS, and PVOW,

00:39:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000651

to ensure applicants are not active pensioners.

00:39:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000652

To reach those who may be missed

00:39:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000653

by the field

00:39:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000654

or those who may not be included in the program,

00:39:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000655

we also allowed applications

00:39:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000656

and LGU referrals for persons aged 70 and above,

00:39:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000657

subject to validation with DSA registry data.

00:39:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000658

Finally, we are advancing the silver economy across ASEAN,

00:39:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000659

recognizing older persons

00:39:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000660

not only as beneficiaries to social protection,

00:39:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000661

but also as contributors to communities and the economy.

00:39:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000662

The supplementary feeding program provides support,

00:39:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000663

supports the nutrition needs of children

00:39:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000664

in child development centers,

00:39:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000665

and supervised neighborhood place.

00:39:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000666

For 2027, the 6.4 billion budget

00:39:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000667

will provide supplementary meals to 1.899 million children,

00:39:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000668

sustaining coverage at the first fiscal year 2026 target.

00:40:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000669

The lower allocation reflects a shorter feeding period

00:40:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000670

of 120 days compared with 180 days in 2026,

00:40:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000671

not a reduction of children served.

00:40:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000672

Social protection must create pathways to self-reliance.

00:40:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000673

Through the Sustainable Livelihood program,

00:40:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000674

we help families in rural areas,

00:40:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000675

families generate income and achieve economic independence.

00:40:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000676

In 2025, SLP assisted 275,478 households exceeding its target

00:40:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000677

with 100% of its 6.2 allocation obligated as of September 2026.

00:40:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000678

238,233 households have been assisted.

00:40:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000679

For 2027, the 5.1 billion budget will support 251,449 households

00:40:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000680

in developing sustainable livelihoods, generating income,

00:40:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000681

and achieving greater economic self-reliance.

00:40:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000682

Given the program's performance and reach,

00:40:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000683

additional funding may be needed to extend these opportunities to more families.

00:40:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000684

We have revamped SLP to move beyond one-time assistance

00:41:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000685

towards sustainable enterprise development.

00:41:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000686

Through Pag-CBOL, we provide long-term support and sustainability plans

00:41:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000687

to help livelihood grow into viable sources of income.

00:41:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000688

We also strengthen market linkages

00:41:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000689

and open new sales channels including digital platforms like TikTok.

00:41:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000690

Our goal is clear, invest in livelihoods that can grow, compete,

00:41:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000691

and provide sustainable income for families.

00:41:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000692

A consistent part of our mandate is to provide residential and center-based services

00:41:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000693

for individuals who require more intensive and sustained care.

00:41:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000694

These include children, older persons, persons with disabilities,

00:41:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000695

and other individuals whose circumstances require specific intervention.

00:41:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000696

For 2025, we serve 9,620 clients,

00:41:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000697

exceeding the target by 11.34%,

00:41:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000698

while in 2026, 8,674 clients have already been served as of this reporting period.

00:41:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000699

For 2027, the 3.3 billion budget will provide specialized care and support

00:42:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000700

to 8,640 clients, helping meet their needs and improve their well-being.

00:42:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000701

Our challenge is to ensure that our 77 residential and center-based facilities

00:42:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000702

remain safe, appropriate, accessible, and sustainable.

00:42:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000703

We are also capable of delivering quality social welfare services.

00:42:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000704

It is for this reason that we are proposing P286.1 million

00:42:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000705

for power system rehabilitation of our care facilities.

00:42:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000706

To address overcapacity, we are also seeking an additional P204 million

00:42:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000707

for cost-of-care subsidies to qualified private social welfare agencies,

00:42:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000708

50 of which have already been operating beyond their bed capacity.

00:42:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000709

These investments will improve care facilities

00:42:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000710

and expand our capacity to serve vulnerable clients.

00:42:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000711

On disaster response, the QRS allows DSWD to provide timely assistance

00:42:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000712

before, during, and after emergencies,

00:42:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000713

ensuring that affected families feel the government's presence

00:42:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000714

when they need it the most.

00:42:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000715

We fully utilize the 2025 allotment and replenishment.

00:43:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000716

For 2026, we have utilized 14.3 billion of the 16.7 billion release.

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000718

with relief goods ready for immediate deployment.

00:43:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000719

We have 1,048 warehouses nationwide

00:43:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000722

with 7.2 million food packs produced in 2025.

00:43:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000723

We also provide emergency cash transfers and cash for work in 2025.

00:43:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000724

1.3 million families benefited from or receive help

00:43:41Source

the 1.9 billion budget for disaster response and rehabilitation

00:43:48Source

asr-000728

will continue the implementation of LAWA and BINHI,

00:43:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000729

which provides cash support for temporary employment

00:43:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000730

and skills training to poor and disadvantaged families

00:43:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000731

vulnerable to climate hazards, including El Ni?o-induced drought.

00:44:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000732

Drought requires a whole-of-government approach.

00:44:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000733

DSWD provides social protection and humanitarian assistance

00:44:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

to meet urgent needs, protect food security and help affected families

00:44:13Source

recover and restore their livelihoods.

asr-000737

This slide will show practical components of LAWA and BINHI,

00:44:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000738

protecting water access, sustaining food production,

00:44:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000739

and strengthening livelihoods.

00:44:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

The approach is intended to help communities address immediate effects of El Nino

00:44:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000741

while building capacity to withstand future shocks.

00:44:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000742

The department's role is complemented by coordination with relevant partners,

00:44:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000743

particularly for technical support and provision of agriculture inputs

00:44:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

and other sector-driven assistance.

00:44:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000745

In addition,

00:44:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000746

the department also uses its quick response fund for emergency cash transfer.

00:44:49Source

asr-000782

In fact, because of that triple whammy,

00:46:05Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000783

the Senate created the RISE Committee

00:46:07Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000784

to address the economic

00:46:09Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000785

slowdown of our country.

00:46:12Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000786

So, in triple whammy will be

00:46:13Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000787

the Iran conflict.

00:46:15Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000788

Number two will be

00:46:17Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000789

the rise in oil prices

00:46:19Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000790

and may spillover effect

00:46:21Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000791

dyan tulad ng inflation.

00:46:23Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000792

And number three, what we are

00:46:25Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000793

now experiencing and we

00:46:27Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000794

will be experiencing,

00:46:28Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000795

throughout the next few months,

00:46:29Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000796

will be El Nino.

00:46:31Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000797

And because of this effect,

00:46:36Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000798

ang kinakabahan ako, baka hindi natin

00:46:40Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000799

maabot, hindi natin maabot

00:46:43Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000800

yung ating target pagdating sa

00:46:45Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000801

poverty reduction.

00:46:47Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000802

And we also need to make sure

00:46:49Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000803

that there are enough social

00:46:51Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000804

safety nets for inflation.

00:46:53Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000805

Yung gera sa Iran, on and off eh.

00:46:55Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000806

Minsan bumababa ang presyo ng langis,

00:46:57Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000807

Minsan hindi.

00:46:58Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000808

But every time nang pa-fluctuate yan,

00:47:00Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000809

tama niyan ang inflation.

00:47:01Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000810

If you look at inflation, you also look at

00:47:03Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000811

the price of utilities, the price of oil,

00:47:07Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000812

and the price of food.

00:47:08Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000813

Yung food, doon ako nag-worry.

00:47:10Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000814

That's why we need the social safety nets

00:47:12Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000815

from the SWD to make sure

00:47:14Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000816

that our constituents have food to eat,

00:47:17Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000817

their children go to school,

00:47:19Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000818

hindi nakakain yung kanilang

00:47:22Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000819

disposable income

00:47:24Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000820

ng inflation.

00:47:27Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000821

At,

00:47:28Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000822

nakakapagtrabaho sila ng maayos.

00:47:31Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000823

So, we will hear from the department

00:47:32Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000824

what are the interventions on those

00:47:35Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000825

specific aspects.

00:47:37Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000826

And maraming salamat,

00:47:38Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-000827

Madam Chairperson.

00:47:40Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000828

Salamat po, SP.

00:47:43Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000829

So,

00:47:44Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000830

you have just framed the

00:47:46Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000831

matter of social protection

00:47:48Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000832

also as an economic issue.

00:47:50Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000833

So, salamat po para doon.

00:47:52Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000834

So, yes, Secrex, if you'd like to

00:47:54Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000835

first of all respond to the

00:47:56Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000836

issues raised about the,

00:47:58Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000837

the fake

00:47:58Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000838

persons with disability IDs

00:48:01Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000839

and then we'll open the first round

00:48:03Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000840

of questioning with the SP.

00:48:05Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000841

Please proceed, sir.

00:48:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000842

Madam Chair, as pointed out by

00:48:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000843

Senator Tulfo, in his committee,

00:48:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000844

we have tackled this issue.

00:48:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000845

But let me state it for the record.

00:48:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000846

After the, at that time, when we

00:48:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000847

found out, nung napabalita

00:48:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000848

itong napaglaganap ng fake ID,

00:48:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000849

the department immediately went to work

00:48:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000850

and proposed a unified system.

00:48:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000851

The unified ID system. It's a digital

00:48:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000852

format, wala ng physical ID,

00:48:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000853

the beauty of this system, ready na ho siya.

00:48:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000854

In fact, it's the same system we are about

00:48:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000855

to use for solo parents also, or we're using

00:48:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000856

for solo parents. Ang mangyayari lang ho,

00:48:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000857

wala ng ID-ID, it's a digital ID.

00:48:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000858

You get a QR code, pag ni-scan ho ng

00:48:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000859

establishment, you'll know if it's a real

00:48:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000860

ID, kasi nasa database yung tao

00:48:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000861

or wala. We were about to roll it out,

00:48:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000862

but the biggest problem is, when we look at the

00:48:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000863

IRR of the PWD discounts

00:48:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000864

law, man parang the QR

00:48:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000865

code ng IBP. Ganun lang. Yeah.

00:48:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000866

Scan lang ng establishment,

00:48:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000867

no new requirements, cellphone lang nila,

00:48:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000868

pwede na. Naka-piggyback rin siya

00:49:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000869

sa e-gov. So when we were about

00:49:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000870

to roll it out, we looked at the IRR

00:49:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000871

of the PWD discount law, at

00:49:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000872

because of the devolution ng social welfare,

00:49:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000873

walang role ang DSWD

00:49:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000874

doon. We weren't, ang issuing

00:49:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000875

ID is, nang issuing is LGU.

00:49:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000876

LGU siya.

00:49:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000877

So that's why now we have 1,000, tama ho yung

00:49:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000878

sa RestoPH. In fact, I met them also.

00:49:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000879

1,500 distinct

00:49:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000880

designs of IDs, 1,500

00:49:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000881

issuing agents, or LGUs,

00:49:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000882

and 1,500

00:49:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000883

signatures ng mga

00:49:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000884

iba't-ibang nag-i-issue.

00:49:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000885

Wala ho kami doon. So meaning, our

00:49:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000886

solution was ready, but the problem

00:49:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000887

is we had to work on the reform

00:49:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000888

muna nung

00:49:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000889

what the setup, the current status quo.

00:49:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000890

Ang nakipagpulong

00:49:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000891

ho kami sa BIR to try to

00:49:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000892

amend the revenue code, the revenue regulation

00:49:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000893

code, para ma-encourage yung mga

00:49:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000894

merchants to use our ID

00:49:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000895

kasi clearly, mahirap na bawiin yung

00:49:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000896

mga ID na manual na nasa labas.

00:49:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000897

So what will be their incentive? We promised

00:49:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000898

them na pag ito ang gamitin nyo,

00:50:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000899

makakasigurado kayo na malalaman nyo

00:50:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000900

kung legit or illegitimate yung ID

00:50:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000901

because nga nakapatong sa database.

00:50:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000902

So it took time

00:50:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000903

because we have to amend the implementing rules

00:50:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000904

and regulation ng PWD

00:50:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000905

ID discounts law, pero

00:50:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000906

we're almost done. Anytime in the next

00:50:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000907

two weeks, we will sign with DOF

00:50:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000908

and DOH. Now, just

00:50:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000909

one step backwards. We identified

00:50:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000910

three points of fraud

00:50:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000911

kung saan nangyayari ho yung

00:50:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000912

panluloko. Una,

00:50:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000913

tulad ng pinoint out ni

00:50:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000914

Sen. Erwin at ni Sen. Rafi kanina,

00:50:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000915

noon, maluwag yung

00:50:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000916

implementation kung sinong doktor

00:50:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000917

ang pwedeng mag-issue ng alin.

00:50:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000918

Sometimes, you would see a general practitioner

00:50:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000919

issuing what a dev

00:50:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000920

ped should be issuing, for instance.

00:50:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000921

So ang ginawa namin doon, in the interim,

00:50:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000922

kinausap namin yung DOH para

00:50:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000923

i-tighten nila. Then, Secretary

00:50:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000924

Herbosa issued a AO

00:50:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000925

na dinefine na mabuti.

00:50:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000926

Aling doktor lang ang pwede mag-issue?

00:50:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000927

Mag-issue ng aling certification.

00:50:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000928

So hindi ibig sabihin, pag orthopedic ka,

00:50:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000929

pwede ka na rin mag-issue ng learning

00:51:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000930

disability na certification.

00:51:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000931

So yun, na-tighten na ho yun. That's the

00:51:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000932

first part. Yung very loose

00:51:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000933

yung certification process, which

00:51:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000934

is yun yung requirement na dinadala

00:51:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000935

sa LGU to get the ID.

00:51:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000936

Yung pangalawa, may mga

00:51:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000937

pagkakataon talaga na may kaibigan sa

00:51:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000938

loob ng mga pidaw office ng

00:51:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000939

LGU at nag-iissue na lang ng ID

00:51:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000940

kahit kulang ang papel. That one, we

00:51:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000941

worked with the DILG to make sure na talaga

00:51:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000942

down sa mga LGU. Kasi

00:51:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000943

that's an ethical violation, administrative

00:51:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000944

violation yun. It's a matter of the LGUs

00:51:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000945

enforcing it. And pangatlo,

00:51:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000946

yung simple na lang, pupunta sila sa recto,

00:51:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000947

magpapagwa sila ng fake ID.

00:51:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000948

So that one, masusulusyonan with the unified

00:51:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000949

ID. So sa madaling salita ho, ready

00:51:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000950

na yung system. In fact, habang

00:51:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000951

nagaantay kami dun sa revenue code,

00:51:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000952

almost 80% ng ating

00:51:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000953

mga LGU na-train na namin gamitin yung

00:51:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000954

new system. Pangalawa,

00:51:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000955

yung revenue, yung

00:51:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000956

implementing rules and regulation,

00:51:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000957

we're not asking Senate or the

00:51:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000958

Congress to pass a new law.

00:51:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000959

Ginalaw lang, nakiusap, in-amend lang

00:52:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000960

namin yung IRR to include

00:52:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000961

us, the SWD, as an

00:52:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000962

implement, as a issuing entity.

00:52:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000963

Pinakamabilis,

00:52:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000964

next two weeks, we're about to sign with

00:52:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000965

DOH and DOF.

00:52:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000966

Pag na-implement na yun, suddenly may

00:52:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000967

personality na ho kami mag-issue ng ID, then

00:52:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000968

our unified system can be used already.

00:52:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000969

Pangatlo po,

00:52:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000970

in our

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000971

briefing, Madam Chair, na kwento namin,

00:52:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000972

ang magiging puhuna namin dito

00:52:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000973

will be giving the smaller LGUs

00:52:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000974

binigyan namin ng software.

00:52:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000975

Sasabihin nila, wala naman kaming hardware.

00:52:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000976

So kaya nga ho, yung budget

00:52:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000977

cut sa NCDA budget,

00:52:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000978

yun ho sana yung ipangbibili namin ng

00:52:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000979

hardware na ibibigay sa mga pidaw

00:52:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000980

or people with disability offices

00:52:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000981

para magamit nila yung app or

00:52:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000982

yung software na ginawa namin.

00:52:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000983

Now, Madam Chair, kanina binanggit ho nyo na

00:52:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000984

digitalization should not be a hindrance

00:52:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000985

to excluding people. Tama ho kayo doon.

00:52:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000986

That's why, itong system na to, may

00:52:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000987

option siya to print. So meaning,

00:52:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000988

the LGUs can print the ID as their service

00:52:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000989

pero ito na ang gamitin nila, huwag na yung

00:53:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000990

sarili nilang ID. So, yun ho.

00:53:04Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000991

Although, Secrex, I raised that in

00:53:05Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000992

relation sa four P's, families.

00:53:07Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000993

Pero kung the same principles sa mga

00:53:09Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000994

persons with disabilities, i-apply sa kanila,

00:53:11Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-000995

makakatulong po yun.

00:53:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000995-split-2

Yes, Madam Chair, I believe

00:53:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000996

that technology shouldn't be an excluding factor

00:53:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000997

for any social protection program.

00:53:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000998

So yun ho yung una naming dinulog

00:53:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-000999

na sinulat namin sa committee na sana ma-restore

00:53:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001000

yung maliit lang naman na pondo sa NCDA

00:53:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001001

para mabili yung computers,

00:53:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001002

at mabigay yung hardware. Kasi

00:53:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001003

sasabihin ng mga LGU, mayroon nga kayong software,

00:53:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001004

may revenue code kayo,

00:53:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001005

wala naman kaming computer. So pag may magpapaprint,

00:53:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001006

paano namin ipiprint?

00:53:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001007

So there are three ingredients. Software is ready

00:53:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001008

with a key database behind it.

00:53:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001009

Ang nagpapopulate naman ho ng database,

00:53:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001010

yung mga pidaw office rin eh. Hindi naman

00:53:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001011

namin kinuha yung power na yun.

00:53:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001012

Pangalawa, ready na rin ho yung

00:53:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001013

IRR na amendment.

00:53:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001014

Anytime magsasign na ho kami,

00:53:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001015

ito na lang ho hardware ang kailangan ho namin.

00:53:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001016

We take cognizance

00:53:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001017

of the issue, kinausap rin po namin yung

00:53:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001018

RestoPH. Nag-meet po kami,

00:53:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001019

together with the PWD groups, and we agree

00:54:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001020

with the observation of

00:54:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001021

Senator Erwin and Senator Raffi na kailangan

00:54:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001022

00:54:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001023

malaki-laki yan kung pinagkaisa.

00:56:51Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001105

Secretary, hindi ba

00:56:53Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001106

duplication na nangyayari?

00:56:55Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001107

Dahil kasi yung isa policy, yung isa

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001108-split-2

Madam Chair,

00:56:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

00:57:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001111

Nakarve po.

00:57:04Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001111-split-2

Kasi yung

00:57:05Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001112

NAPC is no longer

00:57:07Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001113

under you, is that correct?

00:57:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001113-split-2

Initially, talaga

00:57:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001114

nasa OP sila. Tapos sinama, when you were

00:57:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001116

Then, binalik na ulit sila ho.

00:57:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001117

Na-emancipate po sila.

00:57:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001118

Ngayon, na-emancipate.

00:57:19Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001119

Yung Presidential Commission,

00:57:22Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

Hindi na rin po.

00:57:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001121

OP na po silang dalawa. Yes.

00:57:25Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001122

So sa dalawa, OP na ngayon.

00:57:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001123

Together with the NCSC, yung senior citizen.

00:57:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001125

00:57:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001126

00:57:34Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001127

Occidental Commission has never been

00:57:38Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001128

part of it.

00:57:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001128-split-2

Ma'am, it was. It was.

00:57:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001129

You sponsored that also.

00:57:41Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001130

Kasi bakit doble-doble sila,

00:57:43Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001131

tapos tinanggal yung isa,

00:57:45Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001132

pero yung isa nananatili pa rin?

00:57:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001133

Ma'am, both tinanggal na at nilipat na pabalik

00:57:49Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001135-split-2

Ma'am, from my

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001136

00:57:55Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001137

Yung isa, remnant ng 1986,

00:57:58Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001138

yung isa, bungad nung

00:57:59Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001139

batas ng 1997. Diba dapat

00:58:01Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001140

pag-isahin yan,

00:58:03Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001141

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001146-split-2

Well, that's actually

00:58:15Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001147

reform, but

00:58:29Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001154

PCUP will also

00:58:31Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001155

have to comment ano din yung working relationship

00:58:33Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001156

niya, halimbawa, sa DHSUD. So,

00:58:35Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001157

perhaps, Usec. Catong, you would

00:58:37Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001158

like to give the perspective of

00:58:39Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001159

NAPC right now, and then, if

00:58:41Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001160

Senator Imee is satisfied with the answer,

00:58:43Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001161

proceed to your budget presentation.

00:58:45Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001162

Thank you very much, Madam Chair.

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

Executive Order No. 123,

00:59:01Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001170

NAPC, together with PCUP,

00:59:04Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001171

the two institutions are a part

00:59:05Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001172

of the Office of the President. Originally,

00:59:07Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001173

yes, I agree that

00:59:09Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001174

under Republic Act 8425,

00:59:11Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001175

actually signed into law by

00:59:13Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001176

President Ramos in December 11 of

00:59:15Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001177

1997, with NAPC

00:59:17Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001178

as the lead agency

00:59:19Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001179

on matters pertaining to poverty reduction,

00:59:22Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001180

we main task

00:59:23Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001181

on policy reform,

00:59:25Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001182

recovery, and in accordance with social reform

00:59:27Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001183

agenda. And

00:59:28Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001184

it was only in 2019

00:59:31Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001185

that NAPC was placed

00:59:33Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001186

under the administrative supervision

00:59:34Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001187

of the DSWD.

00:59:37Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001188

And hence, in

00:59:39Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001189

the budget preparations and all,

00:59:41Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001190

we were under the

00:59:43Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001191

DSWD. Last August

00:59:45Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001192

14, the President

00:59:46Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001193

finally decided, also because of

00:59:49Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001194

the task pursuant to Republic Act

00:59:51Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001195

11291, or the

00:59:53Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001196

Magna Carta of the Poor, that

00:59:55Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001197

mandates all local government units

00:59:57Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001198

to formulate

00:59:59Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001199

their

01:00:00Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001201

their provincial, city, and municipal poverty reduction action plan.

01:00:06Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001202

And in that law, as a result of, actually, this was anchored on a 1965 UN Convention.

01:00:13Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001203

The Philippines only passed a law in 2019.

01:00:21Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001204

And the Magna Carta of the Poor that demands a local poverty reduction action plan

01:00:27Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001205

to all local government institutions was only implemented in 2023.

01:00:34Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001206

Imagine and focus on the five fundamental rights of the poor.

01:00:40Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001207

The right to adequate food, the right to the highest attainable standards of health,

01:00:45Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001208

the right to adequate housing, the right to highest attainable standards of health,

01:00:54Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001209

and including the decent work.

01:00:59Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001210

In other words, these five fundamental rights are now in place in the Magna Carta of the Poor

01:01:05Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001211

Local Poverty Reduction Action Plan with a Joint Memorandum Circular 01 Series of 2023

01:01:11Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001212

with DSWD, with then NEDA, now DEPDev, with PSA because of the Community-Based Monitoring System Law.

01:01:21Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001213

And of course, in that context, in the...

01:01:24Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001214

In the en banc meeting presided over by the President in June 30 of 2023,

01:01:32Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001215

the target or the marching order to reducing the poverty incidence to 8.8

01:01:36Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001216

was articulated in that 2023 en banc meeting.

01:01:40Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001217

In the 2024 meeting, also, with the support of both houses, especially the Senate,

01:01:47Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001218

it was the Chairperson, Risa Hontiveros, and also with the support of Senator Imee Marcos,

01:01:54Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001219

NAPC was given an additional budget of 140 million.

01:02:00Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001220

But, of course, not enough to roll out the full implementation of the Magna Carta of the Poor

01:02:06Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001221

because we are targeting two sectors.

01:02:09Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001222

NAPC is the only institution in government that talks about the two main sectors,

01:02:15Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001223

the government sector with 27 partner member agencies to include the DSWD, the DILG,

01:02:21Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001224

and all other agencies with PAPs on poverty reduction.

01:02:24Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001225

Under Republic Act 11291.

01:02:27Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001226

Also, 50% of that are the 14 basic sectors.

01:02:31Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001227

Meaning to say that to ensure the full participation and representation at all levels of governments

01:02:38Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001228

pursuant to Republic Act 8425,

01:02:41Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001229

these two legislations plus the Community-Based Monitoring System,

01:02:45Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001230

ito po ang tatlong legal frameworks na kailangan talaga ni NAPC ng karagdagang pondo po.

01:02:52Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001231

Otherwise, hindi natin maaabot.

01:02:54Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001232

Yung sinabi ng batas, Republic Act 11291,

01:02:57Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001233

that says that there shall be an NPRP,

01:03:00Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001234

the National Poverty Reduction Action Plan.

01:03:02Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001235

Diba di na kayo dalawang mag-usap, magkatabi na rin lang kayo?

01:03:05Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001236

Para [unclear] na lang.

01:03:06Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001237

Partner member agency po din sila ng NAPC, ma'am.

01:03:10Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001238

Yes, ma'am.

01:03:12Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001239

PCUP is one of the 27 partner member agencies of NAPC.

01:03:16Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001240

Anong opinion ni Secretary Rich?

01:03:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001241

Madam Chair, we were all tasked to submit an optimization plan.

01:03:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001242

At nung pinangasiwaan ko sila, sa opinion ko rin,

01:03:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001243

dapat magkasama na sila.

01:03:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001244

The only deviation naman kasi, both of them are, they make policy.

01:03:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001245

Meron lang distinct na role si PCUP because they do the mediation pagka may mga demolition.

01:03:33Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001246

That's right.

01:03:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001247

But bukod doon, they pretty much act and feel the same.

01:03:38Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001248

Yeah, yung mga demolition and eviction yung sa inyo.

01:03:41Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001249

Yung accreditation ng mga urban poor groups, sino?

01:03:44Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001250

Kayo o sa NAPC?

01:03:46Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001251

Urban poor, dapat talaga magkaisan nila kasi watak-watak.

01:03:50Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001252

Pero maliban pa sa dating kasamahan namin, si Senator Pacquiao,

01:03:53Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001253

may isa pang sikat eh, akala ko na nandito, wala pala.

01:03:56Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001254

Yung namamayagpag sa social media, yung Sofia Canlas, wala po.

01:04:23Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001256

Okay, medyo nagigets ko na yung comment.

01:04:28Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001257

But bago natin hingin kay Yusek Katong i-present nga yung budget ng NAPC,

01:04:33Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001258

baka Chair Michelle Ann, meron din po kayong comment doon sa tanong ni Senator Aimee

01:04:41Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001259

at yung dagdag na context na pinag-provide ni Secrex,

01:04:44Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001260

kung bakit magkakahiwalay pa yung dalawang ahensya nyo

01:04:47Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001261

at bakit hindi kaya pagsamahin, lalo na dalawang hindi malalaking budget,

01:04:51Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001262

kung pagsamahin baka mas magkaroon ng impact.

01:04:55Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001263

I think that's a question behind the question as well.

01:04:57Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001264

Okay, good afternoon Madam Chair.

01:04:59Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001265

So ang PCUP po ay naitatag nung sa visa ng EO82

01:05:04Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001266

para maging direct link between the poor and the programs and policies of the government

01:05:09Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001267

na napalakas ng EO69 para magsagawa ng social preparation.

01:05:15Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001268

Actually, PCUP lang po ang merong social preparation sa mandato.

01:05:20Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001269

Social preparation.

01:05:21Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001270

Asset reform, human development, livelihood programs

01:05:26Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001271

at yung nga pong nabanggit yung Secretary Rex na unique mandate ng PCUP

01:05:30Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001272

ay yung pag-conduct ng pre-demolition conferences

01:05:33Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001273

para sa mga mahihirap na humaharap sa demolition at eviction.

01:05:38Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001274

Ang PCUP po kasi ay nakafocus talaga sa urban poor sector.

01:05:45Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001275

So it's more of the social safeguards na ginagawa ng PCUP.

01:05:50Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001276

So ang understanding ko po sa NAPC, convener po ang NAPC nung 14 sectors.

01:05:59Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001277

So alam ko po, convener sila.

01:06:04Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001278

So meron silang sector ng urban poor, yung NAPC na tinatawag, one of the sectors.

01:06:12Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001279

But yung members nila, pero hindi sila yung as immersed as what we do.

01:06:20Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001280

Na talagang we organize urban poor organizations.

01:06:24Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001281

We conduct capacity building sa kanila.

01:06:27Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001282

We organize them.

01:06:29Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001283

And then kami talaga yung humaharap sa mga local housing board, LIAC.

01:06:35Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001284

Humaharap sa demolition at nagbibigay ng clearance.

01:06:41Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001285

Kung talagang naka-anchor po kasi kami sa UDHA.

01:06:45Source

PCUP Chairperson Michelle Anne B. Gonzales

asr-001286

Sa social safeguards ng UDHA.

01:06:48Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001287

So siguro sapat na introduction na muna yan sa ngayon dun sa ipipresent yung mga budget.

01:06:57Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001288

And I'm sure factors yung sinabi ninyo pareho dun sa optimization plan na sinabmit na ni Secretary.

01:07:03Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001289

So I think naman ang Senado is laan na suportahan kung ano yung best na nakikita naming policy direction

01:07:11Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001290

nung pag-streamline ninyo ng instruments of the executive para ipatupad yung poverty alleviation,

01:07:18Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001291

at saka yung rights and welfare promotion ng mga informal settlers.

01:07:23Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001292

So Yuseg Katong, baka gusto nyo ituloy muna yung brief presentation ng NAPC budget para sa aming subcommittee.

01:07:31Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001293

Yes ma'am. Thank you very much Madam Chair.

01:07:33Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001294

And good afternoon everyone.

01:07:36Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001295

To continue, over 704 local poverty reduction action committees formed out of the almost 1,600.

01:07:46Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001296

Ito po ay...

01:07:48Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001297

50% po nito ay government sector, meaning in the local government units all over the country.

01:07:55Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001298

After having capacitated because of the help also of the Philippine Senate,

01:07:58Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001299

actually pinahabol yung 140 million and thank you very much for that.

01:08:03Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001300

Pero kulang po talaga, ito lang po yung inabot.

01:08:06Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001301

In fact, most of the local government institutions through the help of the ULAP,

01:08:10Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001302

or Union of Local Authorities of the Philippines,

01:08:12Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001303

plus the League of Provinces of the Philippines under the NAPC vice chairperson for government sector,

01:08:18Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001304

government institutions.

01:08:18Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001305

Or Junta Mayo, tumulong na po sila sa gastusin doon po sa grounds.

01:08:23Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001306

In other words, for example, sinampulan ng South Catapato,

01:08:26Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001307

ang gastos po doon sa provincial poverty reduction action plans sa isang probinsya is more or less 10 million.

01:08:32Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001308

Sila na po ang gumastos doon.

01:08:34Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001309

And sa Mwanga del Sur, even sa Mwanga City,

01:08:37Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001310

because we are targeting actually not only that 82 provinces in the country with their consolidated plans.

01:08:43Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001311

Bottom up, data-driven, and participatory,

01:08:47Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001312

because in the 704 local poverty reduction action committees,

01:08:54Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001313

may issuance po dito ang local chief executives from the municipalities, cities, and provinces.

01:09:00Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001314

Tapos po, 50% po niyan ay tinitiyak ng NAPC.

01:09:03Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001315

Na yung 14 basic sectors po ay walang may iiwanan doon.

01:09:06Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001316

Yung sektor ng kababaihan, kabataan, including, of course, the PWTs,

01:09:12Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001317

and all other sectors, the fisher folk, yung pinakamahirap po ngayon,

01:09:15Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001318

and the victims of disasters and calamity.

01:09:17Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001319

Diyan po ay, in other words, yung hindi na about na 11% na gaps na yan po,

01:09:24Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001320

ayan po yung hinahabol at hinahanap ni NAPC.

01:09:26Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001321

In fact, in the last NB meeting, it was NAPC who really pushed for the full implementation also

01:09:33Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001322

with the help of the Secretary Katsalian and other partners,

01:09:38Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001323

partner member agencies of the National Anti-Poverty Commission,

01:09:42Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001324

yung ating pong batas na community-based monitoring system.

01:09:45Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001325

At tumulong na rin po.

01:09:47Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001326

The Armed Forces of the Philippines and Philippine National Police

01:09:49Source

para abutin po yung mga areas na, especially in the geographically isolated and disadvantaged areas.

01:09:55Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001328

In other words, ngayon po ay 704 LGUs na po ito ang nagagawa.

01:10:03Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001329

Consolidation na lang po because, for example, in the province of Zamboanga del Norte,

01:10:07Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001330

the poorest province in the entire country up to this time,

01:10:11Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001331

ang ano po natin is 27 LGUs plus the province 28 po.

01:10:17Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001332

In three legislative districts.

01:10:20Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001333

Ito po ay ang gagastusin po sana ng National Anti-Poverty Commission dito

01:10:24Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001334

ay mga more or less 16 million

01:10:26Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001335

para po doon sa thorough planning process in accordance with Republic Act 11291.

01:10:32Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001336

Pero kahit na mahirap siya sa Zamboanga del Norte dahil kinakailangan talaga nila ang P-Prop nila,

01:10:37Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001337

sila na po ang gumastos.

01:10:39Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001338

Kaya dahil nakita nila ang pakinabang na yung mga hindi naabot ay naabot talaga

01:10:44Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001339

dahil po sa participation ng basic sectors na 14,

01:10:47Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001340

plus the 50% of that ay galing po sa government sector.

01:10:52Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001341

At dito po ay meron tayong joint, gawargyadong Joint Memorandum Circular.

01:10:56Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001342

After the Joint Memorandum Circular 01, Series of 2023 with DBM, with DSWD, with DEB-DEB,

01:11:04Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001343

with PSA because dahil ano siya, data-driven, and with DILG,

01:11:11Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001344

nagpalabas pa po ng Joint Memorandum Circular, NAPSI, and DILG.

01:11:17Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001345

01, Series of 2025 na sinisiguro na lahat po ng local government units sa buong bansa

01:11:26Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001346

ay susunod doon sa template at masiguro po talaga na walang may iwan.

01:11:33Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001347

Meaning yung mga gaps po ay naka-cover ni NAPSI.

01:11:35Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001348

Wala pong duplication dahil po yung hindi naaabot ay siguraduhin pong aabotin ni NAPSI.

01:11:41Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001349

In my case, as the oversight head for the Local Affairs Coordinating and Monitoring Service,

01:11:47Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001350

humbly, I was able to, pinuntahan ko po ang 82 provinces sa buong Pilipinas.

01:11:53Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001351

In one year, kahit ko walang supporta gamit ang pinakalumang sasakyan ng gobyerno,

01:11:59Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001352

18 years old vehicle, but anyway, that's public service.

01:12:05Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001353

Sa proposal po natin, part ng significant accomplishments sa NAPSI before,

01:12:09Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001354

yan po yung very briefly natin yung proposal, ay 3,654 basic sectors,

01:12:17Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001355

representatives, ay capacitated po and trained in NAPSI on matters pertaining to the full implementation

01:12:22Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001356

of the Local Poverty Reduction Action Plan.

01:12:25Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001357

Ibig sabihin po, yung five na key planners po ng ating pahamalan,

01:12:31Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001358

middle managers hanggang sa municipalities po, ay nagsama-sama together with DILG, with DSWD,

01:12:37Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001359

almost perfect attendance po, Secretary Rex, ang DSWD, ang DILG, and the five key officials.

01:12:47Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001360

Isa po.

01:12:47Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001361

Ibig sabihin po, ay sigurado po tayo, ang larga doon sa grounds ay participatory talaga, data-driven,

01:12:56Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001362

and yung budget po, isa rin po, before dito sa, is the strengthened operations and physical target accomplishments po,

01:13:11Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001363

at saka strong foundation for the NBANC. Magkakaroon po ng NBANC ang NAPSI ngayong schedule po,

01:13:17Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001364

ngayong November, at ginawa na po ang ating preparation.

01:13:21Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001365

Now, on the budget, ito po ang hinihiling po ng, very briefly,

01:13:26Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001366

May kopya ako nitong budget proposal sa marinyo, pakifurnish din yung lahat ng mga senador.

01:13:33Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-001367

Ganon din po yung para sa PCUP, itong ganito po.

01:13:38Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001368

We will do that. Thank you very much.

01:13:40Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001369

And I'll proceed to the agency's request to Congress.

01:13:44Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001370

Fulfillment of the 4.5 billion,

01:13:47Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001371

People's Development Trust Fund under Republic Act 8.425.

01:13:50Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001372

Nabanggit din po ito ni Sen. Riza and Sen. Marcos po sa 2024 at saka 2025.

01:13:59Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001373

Ito yung fulfillment po nito.

01:14:01Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001374

For the basic sector participation in the LPROP or Local Poverty Reduction Action Plan formulation and implementation,

01:14:07Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001375

including the POP, prototyping, capacity building, technical assistance in project development and costing,

01:14:13Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001376

sectoral consultations,

01:14:17Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001377

convergence workshop, participatory monitoring and documentation of replicable poverty reduction initiatives.

01:14:22Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001378

Second is on the 1 billion appropriation for the masagalang pamumuhay sa bagong Pilipinas PLAGSI program and special provision.

01:14:33Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001379

Because po ang NAPSI ay hirap na hirap po talaga kami doon sa geographically isolated and disadvantaged areas

01:14:40Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001380

because wala kami yung regional offices. Ito po ang tinatarget namin ay kahit makapag-umpis haman lang po ng mga,

01:14:45Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001382

ng offices po doon sa region dahil mas malaki ang gastos po ng gobyerno kung palaging lumilipad po at saka nagka-travel po at saka sa mga islands.

01:14:55Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001383

Pero kung meron tayong targeted, for example, we have targeted 30...

01:15:00Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001384

vulnerable provinces

01:15:01Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001385

and most of the

01:15:04Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001386

municipalities there belong to

01:15:07Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001387

the

01:15:07Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001388

JIDA in the

01:15:10Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001389

hinterlands and islands.

01:15:12Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001390

Kaya po, actually

01:15:14Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001391

ang proposal ay medyo malaki-laki pero

01:15:16Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001392

kinukonsider po natin yung sinabi

01:15:18Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001393

ni ating Senate President

01:15:19Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001394

at nag-uusap po kami ni Secretary Pacquiao

01:15:22Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001395

na with that,

01:15:23Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001396

considering that one,

01:15:26Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001397

kahit na mauna

01:15:28Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001398

na lang po daw po yung

01:15:29Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001399

1 billion appropriation for the MBPP

01:15:31Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

program pursuant to

01:15:33Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001401

Republic 11291

01:15:35Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001402

na siya po ang

01:15:37Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001403

tumitiyak na magkaroon po tayo

01:15:39Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001404

ng National Poverty Reduction Action Plan

01:15:41Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001405

because the Philippines is one of the

01:15:43Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001406

very few countries na lang po sa buong mundo

01:15:45Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001407

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001408

01:15:49Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

na-achieve na po nila yun, Brunei Darussalam,

01:16:07Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001418

immediately after their declaration of independence.

01:16:09Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

asr-001419

Ito po, ang Pilipinas po

01:16:11Source

NAPC Undersecretary Esnaen Catong

ang local government units, ang ating

ang social pension.

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001577

to the seniors

01:21:03Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001578

would require 6.6 billion

01:21:05Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001579

na additional sana.

01:21:06Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001580

Utang natin

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001581

sa mga lolot-lola yan,

Senator Imee R. Marcos

Pero,

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001585

taon-taon

01:21:13Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001587

wala naman tayong pambayad.

01:21:16Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001588

Extending the coverage

01:21:17Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001589

would be 6.6 nga,

01:21:19Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001590

pero despite this unmet need,

01:21:21Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001591

the program's 2027 budget

01:21:24Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001592

reduced the allocation

01:21:26Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001593

instead of increasing

01:21:29Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001594

the allocation

01:21:29Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001595

while the budget for AICS

01:21:32Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001596

was increased by 24.8 billion

01:21:35Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001597

bringing it

01:21:36Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001598

to a resounding sum

01:21:38Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001599

of 58 billion.

01:21:39Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001600

Dinagdagan ang QRF,

01:21:41Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001602

yung ating mga lolot-lolo.

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001610

mula sa BID.

01:21:56Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001611

Sa gobyerno,

01:21:56Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001612

why was the allocation

01:21:57Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001613

for the social pension

01:21:59Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001614

for senior citizens

01:22:00Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001615

reduced in the 2027 budget

01:22:03Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001616

instead of being increased

01:22:06Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001617

as was discussed

01:22:07Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001618

year on year

01:22:08Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001619

so that we can pay

01:22:11Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001620

for all these lolos

01:22:12Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001621

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001690

wait-listed seniors

given that the program

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001693

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001694

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001928

higit pa sa kasino ang pagbabago

01:29:05Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001929

ng presyo eh.

01:29:06Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001930

Kaya, inaabangan talaga.

01:29:09Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001931

At saka, higit sa lahat,

01:29:10Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001932

utang pa.

01:29:11Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001933

Yun ang malupit doon.

01:29:12Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001934

Ngayon, given na two-year

01:29:14Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001935

implementation lang ang period

01:29:16Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001936

na binigay sa loan na to,

01:29:18Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001937

how is the DSWD going to complete

01:29:20Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001938

the project?

01:29:21Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001939

With only 3.877 billion

01:29:25Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001940

for 2027.

01:29:27Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001941

Paano niyo hakabulin yung two years?

01:29:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001942

Ma'am, remember,

01:29:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001943

nung time niyo, maliit pa lang siya.

01:29:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001944

Kaya na.

01:29:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001945

Program mas small.

01:29:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001946

So it's released to us

01:29:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001947

based on our disbursement plan also.

01:29:37Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001948

Correct.

01:29:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001949

So habang lumalaki siya,

01:29:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001950

lumalaki rin yung nire-release sa amin.

01:29:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001951

So Ma'am Chair,

01:29:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001952

alam naman ho ng DBM

01:29:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001953

that this is an ODA

01:29:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001954

and we're bounded by our commitment

01:29:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001955

to the ADB

01:29:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001956

and more so,

01:29:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001957

our commitment to the beneficiary.

01:29:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001958

Kasi recurring yun eh.

01:29:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001959

So far Ma'am,

01:29:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001960

nire-release naman kami

01:29:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001961

during the,

01:29:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001962

ng SARO

01:29:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001963

sa tuwing humihingi.

01:30:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001964

na kami based on the approved

01:30:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001965

plan ng Walang Gutob.

01:30:03Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001966

Kaya nga kasi dalawang taon lang yun eh.

01:30:06Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001967

Kaya kinakabahan

01:30:07Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001968

ng lahat kung paano yung discrepancy

01:30:10Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001969

between the total project cost

01:30:11Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001970

in the BESF and the

01:30:13Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001971

submission versus

01:30:15Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001972

the remaining cost.

01:30:17Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001973

Paano i-finance yan?

01:30:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001974

Madam Chair,

01:30:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001975

ngayon lang naman kasi siya aabot na ng

01:30:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001976

750,000 na beneficiary.

01:30:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001977

So in the payout plan na

01:30:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001978

binidana-download sa amin, palaki ng palaki

01:30:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001979

in-release sa amin. So progressive

01:30:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001980

po siya. Habang dumadami ho yung

01:30:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001981

aming mga beneficaryo, lumalaki

01:30:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001982

rin yung release sa amin. Siyempre,

01:30:37Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001983

pero sa palagay mo, mahahabol

01:30:39Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001984

yung two-year implementation.

01:30:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001984-split-2

Madam, yes,

01:30:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001985

because every time naman ho sinusunod

01:30:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001986

ho ng DBM yung release sa amin, hindi pa ho kami

01:30:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-001987

napipitin sa aming mga beneficiary.

01:30:48Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001988

O sige. Maraming salamat.

01:30:49Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-001989

Maraming parang ipapayatan

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002002

kung gusto nyo rin mag-opening

01:31:17Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002004

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002009

it yung ADB e-voucher

01:31:31Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002010

01:31:33Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002011

yung mga ganito ma-prioritize for

01:31:35Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002012

drought hit or drought vulnerable

01:31:37Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002013

provinces in relation po sa Super

01:31:39Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002014

El Nino?

01:31:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002014-split-2

Madam, when we submitted kasi that

01:31:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002015

project design sa ADB, ang tinignan

01:31:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002016

na ho, naka-fixed na ho siya eh. Ang tinignan

01:31:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002017

natin, the poorest areas,

01:31:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002018

the hungriest areas, yung may mataas

01:31:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002019

ng incidence of hunger, and the most

01:31:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002020

stunted areas. So, ma'am,

01:31:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002021

it covers a lot of areas.

01:31:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002022

So, ang alam rin naman namin because of the

01:31:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002023

widespread issue na itong

01:31:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002024

El Nino, yung effects niya, malamang ito rin

01:32:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002025

yung mga pamilya na pinaka-vulnerable.

01:32:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002026

Kasi, they're considered the food poor. Hindi

01:32:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002027

malamang. They are the food poor. 750,000

01:32:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002028

families po yan,

01:32:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

Babati lang po ako.

01:32:25Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002037

Good afternoon and welcome the SWD

01:32:27Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002038

family. And I was just wondering,

01:32:29Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002039

pagka nag-debate si Secrex

01:32:31Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002040

at si Senate President Wynne,

01:32:34Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002041

sa pangalan pa lang kasi lamang

01:32:35Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002042

na si Wynne.

01:32:38Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002043

Because, kung

01:32:39Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002044

sasabihin mo kasi

01:32:41Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002045

Sec na si Wynne ang nananalo

01:32:43Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002046

sa debate,

01:32:45Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002047

sa kanya ko nalang padadala yung mga sulat

01:32:47Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002048

kung tanong sa'yo. Pero, pag

01:32:49Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002049

sinabi mong ikaw, having

01:32:51Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002050

said that, I just want to put on record and

01:32:53Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002051

ask na lang ako who I'll coordinate with.

01:32:55Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002052

Yung ating projects

01:32:57Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002053

on anti-stunting. And I know you've

01:32:59Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002054

spent some time. And I think the

01:33:01Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002055

Senate President for

01:33:02Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002056

sabi niya sa akin, pati

01:33:05Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002057

sa family gatherings nyo,

01:33:07Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002058

binabanggit niya sa'yo yun.

01:33:09Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002059

So, I don't want to take up the time of

01:33:11Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002060

Senator Tulfo or the others. But, maybe

01:33:13Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002061

I can, before the plenary,

01:33:15Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002062

mag-usap lang ng konti on several issues.

01:33:18Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002063

And I have to say lang,

01:33:19Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002064

yung mga faith-based groups

01:33:21Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002065

has been

01:33:23Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002066

your supporters from the start. But, there's been a lot

01:33:25Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002067

of problems in individuals.

01:33:27Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002068

So, baka lang we can have a discussion.

01:33:29Source

Senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano

asr-002069

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002121

They gave us notice to it already.

01:35:25Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002122

So wala pong ikang

01:35:27Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002123

mag-i-exceed. Hindi po siya mag-i-exceed.

01:35:29Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002124

Kasi ang

01:35:30Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002125

nakakatakot lang po at naririnig ko

01:35:34Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002126

na baka may maalis po

01:35:35Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002127

sa servisyo pag na-i-exceed po siya

01:35:38Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002128

sa 26,711.

01:35:40Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002129

Secretary.

01:35:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002130

Madam Chair, wala ho. In fact, we made

01:35:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002131

that very clear. We spoke to the

01:35:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002132

union also of the department and assured

01:35:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002133

them that during the regularization process,

01:35:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002134

we will consider

01:35:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002135

all the institutional knowledge,

01:35:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002136

all the...

01:35:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002137

to make sure that the incumbents

01:35:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002138

get first dibs doon sa mga

01:35:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002139

posisyon na yun. Pero wala ho maalis.

01:36:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002140

Madaling salta, wala ho. Malilip, mako-convert

01:36:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002141

sila. Mako-convert sila into regulars.

01:36:06Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002142

Ano po ang

01:36:07Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002143

nasalistahan nyo, Secretary?

01:36:09Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002144

Na, I mean, for

01:36:11Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002145

regularization?

01:36:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002146

Well, theoretically,

01:36:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002147

lahat ho nito dapat

01:36:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002148

regular na sa tagal ho nila. Pero

01:36:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002149

ginagawa ho sa amin ng DBM dahil

01:36:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002150

sa tight fiscal space, unti-unti nilang

01:36:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002151

binibigay at meron naman. So nauna

01:36:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002152

na yung 5,000, may padating

01:36:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002153

na na 5,000 ulit. So that should

01:36:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002154

give us 10,000. So

01:36:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002155

kung yung 24,000

01:36:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002156

na ho na to, nandito pa yung

01:36:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002157

hindi pa kinakaltas yung fiber, di ba?

01:36:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002158

Kung 24,000 na to, Madam Chair,

01:36:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002159

Mr. Senator, mababawasan ka agad yan

01:36:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002160

ng 5,000, sigurado na.

01:36:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002161

And then another 5,000

01:36:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002162

immediately thereafter.

01:36:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002163

So bumababa na ho yung numero.

01:36:48Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002164

Okay. Alright. Moving on,

01:36:51Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002165

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002171-split-2

Madam Chair,

01:37:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002172

Mr. Senator, I would yield the floor to

01:37:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002173

the NCSC dahil nga ho, hindi namin

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

01:37:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002175

Hindi pa rin ho yung

01:37:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002176

relationship status namin, medyo complicated ho eh.

01:37:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002177

They are under the OP,

01:37:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002178

inattached sa amin, but they refuse our

01:37:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002179

hindi ho nila kinilala yung

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002180

aming mandate over them

01:37:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002182

I'll let the Executive Director answer na lang po.

01:37:29Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

01:39:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002228

Madam Chair, sorry but I cannot

01:39:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002229

help but not jump in dahil nga

01:39:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002230

we're monitoring this. Yung 15,000

01:39:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002231

just to qualify it, yan yung nag-apply ho.

01:39:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002232

Di ba? Dapatas naman hindi dapat

01:39:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002233

kailangan mag-apply.

01:39:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002234

Automatic yun without a positive action

01:39:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002235

from your end. Dapat when you turn 80,

01:39:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002236

85, 90, 95, you get it

01:39:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002237

all the way to 100.

01:39:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002238

Doon kasi kami may bone of contention.

01:39:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002239

We were telling them

01:39:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002240

na dapat wala ng application yan.

01:39:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002241

We used the CBMS

01:39:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002242

to determine

01:39:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002243

parang actuarial service. Kasi nung nasa

01:39:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002244

amin yan sa DSWD, or may say

01:39:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002245

nung nasa atin, nung nasa inyo pa ho nung time nyo,

01:39:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002246

pinipredict na natin yan

01:39:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002247

2 years or 3 years in advance through

01:39:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002248

a rolling system. But

01:39:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002249

unfortunately, I think the NCSC

01:39:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002250

initiated the new system na yung matanda

01:39:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002251

kailangan mag-apply. So baka akala lang ho

01:39:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002252

natin yung 15,000, eh yun na ho yun.

01:39:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002253

Yung mga hindi nag-apply, mas marami ho yun.

01:39:51Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002254

Kaya nga, I was asking

01:39:52Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002255

her kanina, Ms. Calapit,

01:39:55Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002256

kasi dapat

01:39:57Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002257

tama naman ho yun.

01:39:59Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002258

Bakit pa po pag-apply yun yung mga yan,

01:40:01Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002259

dapat kung nasa system na po yan,

01:40:04Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002260

they don't have to go to

01:40:06Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002261

ikanga pipila,

01:40:08Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002262

magka ikanga mag-fill up

01:40:09Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002263

ng mga forms. Di po ba?

01:40:11Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002264

Tama po ba ako? Kailangan

01:40:12Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002265

tamatik na ho yan pagdating nila ng age

01:40:15Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002266

na ganoon, alam na ho ng inyong

01:40:17Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002267

tanggapan?

01:40:20Source

NCSC Acting Executive Director Ana Marie C. Calapit

asr-002268

Hindi naman po siya bone of contention.

01:40:22Source

NCSC Acting Executive Director Ana Marie C. Calapit

asr-002269

Doon po kami patungo.

01:40:24Source

NCSC Acting Executive Director Ana Marie C. Calapit

asr-002270

At yan naman po talaga

01:40:25Source

NCSC Acting Executive Director Ana Marie C. Calapit

asr-002271

asr-002310

Yes po, naniniwala kami na dapat nga po

01:41:45Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002311

hindi na pumila, mag-submit.

01:41:47Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002312

Kailangan lang po talagang maayos yung listahan.

01:41:50Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002313

So mayroon pong database

01:41:51Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002314

ang NCSC ngayon. Kaso nasa

01:41:54Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002315

national level siya.

01:41:55Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002316

So ang kaya po pinopi,

01:41:58Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002317

ina-advocate din namin sa kanila

01:42:00Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002318

na sana sa LGU level.

01:42:02Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002319

Kasi kapag may once na may

01:42:04Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002320

nag-reach ng age ng for example

01:42:05Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002321

80, automatic po nung

01:42:07Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002322

malalaman sana.

01:42:09Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002323

So yung po yung isang concern ngayon na

01:42:11Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002324

winowork out namin in partnership po with NCSC

01:42:14Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002325

na maayos talaga yung database.

01:42:16Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002326

Kapag maayos na po kasi,

01:42:18Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002327

anytime, alam na natin

01:42:20Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002328

kung sino yung maging 80, 85,

01:42:21Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002329

90, 90, 100, may bibigay agad

01:42:24Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002330

yung assistance po na kailangan.

01:42:26Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002331

Opo, marami po kasi nagtatanong.

01:42:28Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002332

Sa akin, Secretary, regarding

01:42:30Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002333

this, kung dahil nabalita

01:42:32Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002334

daw, parang automatic

01:42:34Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002335

pag tungtong ng 80, 85,

01:42:35Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002336

makukuha na nila. So kung magpapalista

01:42:38Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002337

pa po, minsan, ang layo po

01:42:40Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002338

ng tira na sa liblib na lugar, that is

01:42:41Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002339

the problem po.

01:42:44Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002340

Magdagdag lang po ako. Isa po sa

01:42:46Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002341

concern kapag bank account din po,

01:42:48Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002342

marami sa mga nakatatanda, lalo sa

01:42:50Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002343

mga liblib na lugar, wala naman pong

01:42:52Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002344

capacity na mag-apply ng mga

01:42:54Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002345

bank account. So,

01:42:55Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002346

baka kailangan po, re-parent talaga

01:42:57Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002347

yung makipag-ugnayan na lang

01:42:59Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002348

sa Office of Senior Citizens Affairs

01:43:01Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002349

sa bawat LGU na sila na lang po

01:43:03Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002350

siguro yung magbigay. And also, may

01:43:05Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002351

mga staff naman, yung NCSC right sa ground

01:43:07Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002352

na tumutulong po.

01:43:09Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-002353

So, pwede pong ganun.

01:43:10Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002354

Thank you, Ms. Emily. Secretary?

01:43:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002355

Senator, Madam Chair, Senator Erwin,

01:43:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002356

matagal na kasi namin ho

01:43:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002357

tinututukan. Nung

01:43:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002358

binigay yan sa kanila, nung kinuha yan

01:43:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002359

sa kanila, binigay na namin sa kanila

01:43:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002360

yung rolling plan. Three years

01:43:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002361

po yun eh. Kasi mapapredict mo naman ho

01:43:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002362

yung the CBMS. And then,

01:43:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002363

pwede na ho i-validate.

01:43:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002364

I think nagiging problema ho kasi, the new

01:43:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002365

system na mag-apply. And the second part of the

01:43:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002366

problem is, kulang ho sila ng tao.

01:43:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002367

Dahil yung NCSC is a very

01:43:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002368

small agency na jumpstart. That's why

01:43:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002369

patuloy ho namin sinasabi noon na

01:43:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002370

ibalik na sila sa amin, the function,

01:43:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002371

kasi yung mga tao ng DSWD dati, yun

01:43:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002372

na rin ang ginagawa. So, pag nakita

01:43:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002373

namin na mag-80, 85 na,

01:43:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002374

ahead of time, pinukuntahan na ho natin

01:43:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002375

sila, pinoproject na natin,

01:43:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002376

bina-validate na. So, medyo nabago ho

01:43:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002377

doon. And I think, mahihirapan ho yung

01:43:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002378

NCSC to cope. Kasi even if you look at their

01:44:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002379

budget proposal, kulang talaga

01:44:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002380

ng tao ho talaga yung NCSC.

01:44:06Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002381

Sek, pahapol ko lang.

01:44:08Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002382

Tama po ba

01:44:09Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002383

na itong social

01:44:10Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002384

pension for indigent

01:44:13Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002385

senior citizens ng

01:44:15Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002386

NCSC?

01:44:17Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002387

Hindi pa po natatransfer?

01:44:19Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002388

Yeah. And then,

01:44:21Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002389

will it violate section 11

01:44:23Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002390

RA number 11350

01:44:25Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002391

which explicitly mandates

01:44:27Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002392

the transfer?

01:44:27Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002393

of certain functions to NCSC?

01:44:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002394

Yeah.

01:44:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002395

Merong hong executive order

01:44:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002396

na linabas, I think,

01:44:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002397

a year ago, during the last

01:44:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002398

budget season. Kasi nga,

01:44:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002399

ang bone of contention naman ho noon

01:44:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002400

is that will require a big chunk of

01:44:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002401

money to beef up NCSC

01:44:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002402

to perform the function. And then,

01:44:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002403

sinayit doon sa EO na yun, yung

01:44:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002404

optimization law, na ibalik

01:44:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002405

na lang yan sa DSWD dahil nga

01:44:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002406

that function can't be done by DSWD

01:44:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002407

and NCSC can be

01:44:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002408

a policy-making body.

01:45:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002409

Para hindi na magdagdag ng tao.

01:45:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002410

Kasi yung mga tao namin, dati yun na rin yung ginagawa nila.

01:45:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002411

Wala nang dadagdag pa.

01:45:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002412

Pero pinawasan natin ng narabaho yung tao namin.

01:45:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002413

Okay naman sa amin. Masaya yung mga tao namin.

01:45:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002414

Pero ngayon, humingi sila ng dagdag tao.

01:45:12Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002415

Alright. Last two points na lang, Secretary.

01:45:16Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002416

Yung sustainable livelihood at saka AICS.

01:45:21Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002417

Senator Erwin, bago nyo iwan ang NCSC, just one quick question.

01:45:25Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002418

Salamat. Kay ED, Anna Marie.

01:45:27Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002419

Ma'am, wala po ba yung chair o kahit sinong commissioner ng NCSC na kasama natin ngayong hapon?

01:45:35Source

NCSC Acting Executive Director Ana Marie C. Calapit

asr-002420

Madam Chair, hindi po makakadalo ang ating chair at nag-submit po siya kahapon ng letter.

01:45:43Source

NCSC Acting Executive Director Ana Marie C. Calapit

asr-002421

Nag-aasikaso po sila para sa International Intergovernmental Working Group sa Human Rights of Older Persons sa Geneva, Switzerland.

01:45:55Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002422

Oti po yung mga commissioners.

01:45:56Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002423

Oti po yung mga commissioners. Lahat nag-aasikaso dun sa paghahandang iyon.

01:46:00Source

NCSC Acting Executive Director Ana Marie C. Calapit

asr-002424

Hindi naman po.

01:46:03Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002425

So, sana yung mga commissioners na nandirito ay dumalo rin ngayong hapon sa ating hearing.

01:46:10Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002426

Pakipaabot po yung feedback po ng chair.

01:46:13Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002427

And aasahan po namin pati si chair at yung mga commissioners ay kasama din po natin sa budget plenary.

01:46:21Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002428

Yun po ang custom dito po sa mga budget hearings.

01:46:24Source

NCSC Acting Executive Director Ana Marie C. Calapit

asr-002429

Okay po, Madam Chair.

01:46:25Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002430

Salamat.

01:46:26Source

NCSC Acting Executive Director Ana Marie C. Calapit

asr-002431

Okay po.

01:46:27Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002432

Salamat, ED.

01:46:27Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002433

Anna Marie.

01:46:28Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002434

Please proceed, Senator Erwin.

01:46:29Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002435

Salamat.

01:46:30Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002436

Kaya wala na sila dito, Madam Chair.

01:46:32Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002437

Pinaubayan nila sa DSWD.

01:46:34Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002438

Nandiyan naman na DSWD.

01:46:36Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002439

If you will not show up your leaders, yung chairman po ninyo at commissioner,

01:46:40Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002440

parang sinasabi nyo na ho, sige na, Secretary Rex na lang po magsasalita.

01:46:44Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002441

Pero tama po yun, ma'am.

01:46:45Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002442

Barang nakaka-insulto.

01:46:47Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002443

Sabihin nyo na lang ho sa inyong chairman at saka inyong mga commissioners.

01:46:51Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002444

Ano po?

01:46:52Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002445

Thank you.

01:46:52Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002446

Salamat, Senator Erwin.

01:46:54Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002447

Actually, tingin ko.

01:46:55Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002448

So, kaya naman nung dalawang ahensya, department at saka commission,

01:47:00Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002449

i-resolve ito.

01:47:01Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002450

Alang-alang sa kabutihan ng mga senior citizens natin.

01:47:04Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002451

At yung autonomy din nung agency na itinayo para sa kanila.

01:47:08Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002452

Salamat.

01:47:08Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002453

Please proceed, Senator Erwin.

01:47:09Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002454

Yes.

01:47:10Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002455

Last two questions.

01:47:12Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002456

Let's go to sustainable livelihood program.

01:47:15Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002457

Binawasan po ba itong SLP ninyo, Secrex?

01:47:20Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002458

Madam Chair.

01:47:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002459

Madam Chair, it was restored to the NEP level.

01:47:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002460

Kasi yung...

01:47:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002461

Nagdagdagan po, nanggaling ho yun during the amendment period.

01:47:29Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002462

How much is this po?

01:47:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002463

Ayun, tanggal 1 billion.

01:47:32Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002464

1 billion, no?

01:47:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002465

And 1B, no?

01:47:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002466

Ang...

01:47:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002467

From the original na 6B, naging 5B na lang ho siya.

01:47:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002468

So, that's why we also put it in our tier 2 na sana dagdagan ho beyond even that level.

01:47:46Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002469

Kasi when I was a secretary, problema na ho talaga ito sa dami po ng kailangan sa mga regional offices po na ninyo.

01:47:54Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002470

Pati po yung...

01:47:55Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002471

Mga LGUs na...

01:47:57Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002472

Siyempre, gusto po nila na mabigyan na kabuhayan yung constituents nila.

01:48:01Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002473

Nakikita po nila yun.

01:48:03Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002474

Pero with limited budget.

01:48:04Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002475

So, you're saying that you're requesting na probably another 1B para sa sustainable livelihood?

01:48:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002476

Actually, Madam Chair, during our tier 2, pinaabot ho namin yung request namin na karagdagang 3.5B para kukam na close to 10 billion.

01:48:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002477

Tama ho kayo.

01:48:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002478

Madam Chair, the good senator knows this very well.

01:48:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002479

Itong programa na ito, nakakatulong ito in the long run.

01:48:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002480

Kasi halimbawa yung umaalis sa 4Bs, doon natin pinapasok para hindi nababalik sa kahirapan.

01:48:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002481

And it's teaching them how to fish.

01:48:32Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002482

Tama po yun, Madam Chair.

01:48:34Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002483

Because parang grant po ito kasi, Madam Chair, itong SLP.

01:48:39Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002484

Hindi kagayang sa DTI, binabayaran sila.

01:48:42Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002485

Pero ito talagang ibibigay po ng DSWD para pangkabuhayan.

01:48:46Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002486

Well, anyway, moving to another topic.

01:48:49Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002487

Ito, medyo sensitive po ito at saka napapanahon.

01:48:53Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002488

Last year po, kami po...

01:48:55Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002489

Ni SP, tinaasan po namin when he was the Finance Chair, yung inyo pong Assistance for Individuals in Crisis.

01:49:05Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002490

Wala pa pong gera noon.

01:49:07Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002491

Wala pa pong mga sakuna, kung ano man po yan, dilubyo.

01:49:12Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002492

Pero we anticipated na baka may mangyari kasi medyo nagkakagirian na po yung Amerika at Iran.

01:49:19Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002493

Tama nga po yung naging desisyon na dagdagan po kayo.

01:49:21Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002494

Umabot po tayo ng 63 something billion.

01:49:24Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002495

Di tama nga.

01:49:25Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002496

Ang presidente, kayong unang inilagay sa front line to address the problems.

01:49:29Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002497

Pwede po ba ng mga ating mga transport, pambilin ng mga gasolina, yung mga OFWs natin, tumulong din po kayo.

01:49:38Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002498

So talagang malaki po na gastos po ninyo doon.

01:49:42Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002499

Pero nagtataka lang po ako, binawasan po sa NEP ninyo.

01:49:47Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002500

Pero dinagdagan naman na umabot na po sa 30 something billion.

01:49:50Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002501

Well, that is sufficient enough.

01:49:53Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002502

We're anticipating right now.

01:49:55Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002503

Paparating po itong El Nino.

01:49:57Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002504

Tapos ito pong gyera sa Iran, di pa po tapos.

01:50:00Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002505

Hindi natin alam kung hanggang kailan po ito.

01:50:03Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002506

Baka ikang umabot na rito.

01:50:05Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002507

Pati nga po yung Yemen, Somalia, Saudi Arabia, mga Houthis.

01:50:11Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002508

Kung saan saan na ho nag-ikang umugat itong problema nito.

01:50:15Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002509

Meron tayong yun.

01:50:16Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002510

Yung El Nino, tapos hindi pa po natin alam kung ano talagang epekto nito.

01:50:23Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002511

So, papano ito?

01:50:25Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002512

What are you planning?

01:50:26Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002513

Is it enough?

01:50:27Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002514

Is it enough na dinagdagan po sa gab?

01:50:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002515

Unfortunately, una po, Madam Chair,

01:50:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002516

gusto kong magpasalamat kay Senator Erwin,

01:50:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002517

kay Senator Sherwin dahil binalik ko yan na dinagdagan.

01:50:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002518

Yung dinagdag ho naging standby fund natin.

01:50:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002519

Nung kasagsagan nito, at hindi ko naman pwede sabihin natapos na,

01:50:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002520

nung sa transport sector alone,

01:50:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002521

close to 10 billion in one month ang ginamit natin para sa mga transport workers natin.

01:50:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002522

Doon natin kinuha yun.

01:50:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002523

It became our lifeline.

01:50:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002524

So, kaya naka-respond tayo kaagad.

01:50:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002525

In fact, nagpa-quick survey ho ang SWS tulad na nabanggit ko kanina.

01:51:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002526

96% of the respondents doon sa catchment said,

01:51:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002527

ginamit nila yung pera para magpatuloy ng hanap buhay.

01:51:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002528

80% naman ang sinabi, ginamit nila yun para makabili ng pagkain nung nangangailangan sila.

01:51:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002529

So, ngayon nangangamba ho kami sa pagbawas na meron nga triple whammy na ina-anticipate,

01:51:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002530

pero nabawasan naman ho kami.

01:51:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002531

Kaya nga ho, maraming salamat sa tanong na dumudulog kami ngayon ulit

01:51:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002532

sa Komitee at sa Senado na sana ibalik man lang doon sa level ng GAAP last year.

01:51:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002533

Kahit ngayon, very tight na eh.

01:51:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002534

Pero kung talagang tight fiscal space, maibalik man lang doon.

01:51:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002535

Palagay ko, mas kakayanin natin ng konti po.

01:51:39Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002536

Will that sustain isa ka sakali?

01:51:42Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002537

I mean, ang pinag-usapan lang kasi natin, in-anticipate natin po yung El Niño.

01:51:46Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002538

Pero paano kung may mga darating pa ng mga dilubyok at baka magkakaroon pa po ng gera,

01:51:51Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002539

hindi ho natin alam.

01:51:52Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002540

Will that be sufficient na ikanga para, kasi kayo po laging pag may mga ganito sitwasyon,

01:51:59Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002541

DSWD, nandoon ho kayo sa front line.

01:52:02Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002542

May problema po ang mga magsasakan natin, DSWD, natulong din po.

01:52:06Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002543

Mangingis na, DSWD pa rin ho.

01:52:08Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002544

So, ano ho, what is your take on this?

01:52:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002545

Sabi ko ho ito sa House, nung pinatawag ho kami during the budget season,

01:52:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002546

nangangamba rin ho kami.

01:52:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002547

Nangangamba kami na yung natira na,

01:52:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002548

eh maaaring hindi sasapat, kaya dumudulog ho kami na sana ibalik man lang,

01:52:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002549

man lang, to the minimum sa gaal level.

01:52:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002550

Madam Chair, tama ho kayo na kulang kung titignan.

01:52:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002551

Pero gusto ko rin ho i-assure yung committee na kung mabalik ho yun,

01:52:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002552

kaya naman namin i-balance siya with the quick response.

01:52:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002553

Kasi kanina nabanggit na rin ho yung quick response.

01:52:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002554

Dahil the quick response, kami ho ang pinaka, DSWD po ang pinakamalaking user po noon.

01:52:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002555

So, pinagsasabay ho namin gamitin yan.

01:52:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002556

Pero admittedly, kahit tignan nyo yung quick response,

01:52:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002557

by this time, medyo konti na rin ho yung balance ng Ndream Fund.

01:52:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002558

Meron pa, pero konti na.

01:53:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002559

Now, Madam Chair, there was a year na binibigyan kami ng Office of,

01:53:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002560

which is, hindi naman dapat,

01:53:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002561

but binibigyan kami rin ng contingency fund galing sa Office of the President to augment.

01:53:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002562

Pero alam ko po yung sinasabi nyo na paano pag hindi kayo bigyan,

01:53:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002563

eh di mabibitin ho.

01:53:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002564

And kung pwede ho, dagdagan pa beyond the gaal level because of the anticipated,

01:53:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002565

inflationary effects na tuloy-tuloy.

01:53:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002566

Yung El Nino na not just the farmers, but the prices of goods and food actually,

01:53:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002567

baka tumaas rin.

01:53:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002568

And then, meron pa ho yung sunod-sunod na mga regular ho na mga pangangailangan,

01:53:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002569

talagang kukulangin po.

01:53:38Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002570

Alright.

01:53:39Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002571

Yung QRF ho na nabanggit ho ninyo last year,

01:53:43Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002572

nung nagkagulo na nga po, nagkagero na nga.

01:53:45Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002573

I called my good friend, Yuseca Dayan Cahipe.

01:53:50Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002574

Sabi niya, meron pa naman.

01:53:51Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002575

Sen, may budget pa.

01:53:53Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002576

Pero kailangan lang i-juggle siguro yung Secretary Rex Gatchal yan.

01:53:57Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002577

Kumusta naman po itong QRF ninyo?

01:53:59Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002578

Nabawasan ba?

01:54:00Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002579

Ninagdagan ba?

01:54:02Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002580

Kailangan ba medyo malaki-laki?

01:54:04Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002581

Just in case po.

01:54:05Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002582

Just in case.

01:54:05Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002583

Hindi naman natin ikang pinagdarasal na sana dumating lahat itong problema.

01:54:11Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002584

Pero will that be sufficient po itong QRF?

01:54:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002585

Sen, Madam Chair.

01:54:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002586

Una po, nagpapasalamatin kami sa inyo.

01:54:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002587

Dahil yung standby fund na seed capital ng QRF, nilakihan ho nyo last time.

01:54:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002588

Umabot na ho ng 3 billion yun.

01:54:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002589

Crucial ho kasi yun dahil yung replenishment mechanism takes around,

01:54:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002590

magbilis na ho ngayon.

01:54:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002591

But syempre meron hong documentation.

01:54:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002592

Umabot ng 2 weeks.

01:54:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002593

So in that 2 weeks time, maraming pwedeng mangyari.

01:54:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002594

Nag-aantay yung beneficiaryo.

01:54:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002595

Pero kaya nga ho, natuwa kami na sa house, ibinalik sa 3 billion.

01:54:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002596

From 1.5, ibinalik sa 2.1.

01:54:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002597

1.5, 1.25, ibinalik ulit sa 3.

01:54:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002598

Kasi that gives us the leg room na yung term nyo, mabalans eh.

01:54:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002599

So habang humihingi kami ng replenishment, tuloy-tuloy pa rin activity sa baba

01:55:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002600

sa pagbayad ng emergency cash transfer.

01:55:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002601

Pero kung tatanungin niyo ako kung kasha,

01:55:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002602

if you look at the balance ng Ndream Fund right now,

01:55:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002603

ang natitira na lang ho na balance ng Ndream Fund is 900 million.

01:55:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002604

Kasi hindi lang ho kami ang gumagamit noon.

01:55:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002605

Marami hong gumagamit.

01:55:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002606

Pero there was a prior year, huwag ho tayo not to raise the worry of anybody.

01:55:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002607

Meron rin hong year na replenish ho yan ng Office of the President using their contingency fund.

01:55:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002608

So meron ho siyang back-to-back na alam naman ho ng Office of the President

01:55:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002609

na pag mababa na yun, ginalagyan rin ho nila ng pera.

01:55:36Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002610

I think I've also experienced that, Secretary, when I was a Secretary of DSW,

01:55:41Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002611

nagsunod-sunod na po, may earthquake po sa Abra

01:55:44Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002612

and then may landslide po sa...

01:55:47Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002613

sa Barm, sa Maguindanao.

01:55:52Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002614

So sunod-sunod din.

01:55:53Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002615

I am very aware na yung pondo na yan, pinabibili po ng mga food packs,

01:55:58Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002616

sobrang dami pagkatapos yung mga, syempre, materials sa mga bahay.

01:56:02Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002617

So yun lang ho yung concern natin.

01:56:05Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002618

What if, hindi pa natin alam, hindi pa natin ma-estimate itong damage na gagawin po ng ilin ninyo na ito.

01:56:11Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002619

Pero will you agree with me, mas maganda siguro na prepared ho tayo na meron tayong pera,

01:56:17Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002620

sa bulsa, na ipamimigay, itutulog sa mga kababayan natin.

01:56:20Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002621

Because, who never know, hindi lang naman magsasaka maapektuhan dito.

01:56:24Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002622

Pati siguro yung mga fisher folks natin, pati po yung ordinary yung tao, di po ba,

01:56:29Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002623

na kailangan may mga pampagamot, di ba, kaya sa sobrang init.

01:56:33Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002624

So kaya kailangan siguro natin na tag-aralan at dagdagan mo siguro.

01:56:37Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002625

So how much are we looking at dito sa, yung sabi nyo kanina, sa AX, kahit na kung hindi abot mo ng 63, mga nasa 50.

01:56:47Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002626

Sa QRF, ilan ho ang dapat?

01:56:50Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002627

Yung ikang napupwede para hindi ho tayo nangangamba, hindi ka nangangamba.

01:56:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002628

Madam Chair, yung balikan ko lang yung AX ho, since nabalik ho ulit, sana mabalik man lang sa 63.

01:57:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002629

That's our minimum sana. Huwag na ho bababa sana doon.

01:57:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002630

Kasi as it is right now, nauubos ho yun.

01:57:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002631

Now, dito lang sa Quick Response Fund.

01:57:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002632

Just to give you an idea, kanina na-flash naman ho namin, naka 13.6 billion na ho ang DSWD alone.

01:57:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002633

Hindi pa ho kasama.

01:57:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002634

Tama yung mga ibang ahensya na kumukuha ho doon.

01:57:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002635

So tama ho kayo, sana matignan rin ho yun kung paano siya i-beef up.

01:57:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002636

Kasi from my understanding, it is a percentage of the, mayroon siyang fixed formula po siya.

01:57:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002637

So I think we will be restrained by the N-DREAM law kung paano siya ilalakihan.

01:57:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002638

Pero kung mabibisita po, much better.

01:57:41Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002639

Okay. Thank you po.

01:57:43Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002640

Finally po, isa na lamang nga talaga, Madam Chair.

01:57:46Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002641

Sige po.

01:57:47Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002642

All right.

01:57:48Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002643

Yun pong pondo po, kasama na po ba dito sa OSEC ito, yung para sa pagpapagawa ninyo sana,

01:57:58Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002644

na you were discussing with me, ng home for the elderly sa Visayas region, Secretary?

01:58:05Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002645

That's a very, very good idea po for our cities.

01:58:09Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002646

Kasi dito sa Metro Manila, meron po tayo, diba, yung Golden Acres.

01:58:13Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002647

Sa Visayas po, kayo nakaisip noon na gusto rin yun.

01:58:17Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002648

Ang lagyan para yung mga na-abandon na na, na mga matatanda, meron silang shelter sa Visayas.

01:58:23Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002649

Nakasama na po ba ito sa OSEC budget na inaprubahan din po ng, dumaan na rin sa GAB?

01:58:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002650

Unfortunately, hindi ho nakasama dahil karamihan ho ng budget na nasa OSEC are grants.

01:58:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002651

Yan ho marami ho dyan are grants. Wala halos na capital expenditure.

01:58:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002652

Nag-submit kami ng Tier 2.

01:58:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002653

Ang request nga ho namin is to construct itong home for the aged.

01:58:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002654

Pangalawa, to also repair yung mga existing.

01:58:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002655

Ang listing din ho natin.

01:58:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002656

But it was not considered.

01:58:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002657

That's why we're lobbying again and it's part of our submission na sana mapigyan ho ng atensyon when the period of amendments comes into play.

01:58:59Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002658

Hindi po napasama ito sa capital outlay ninyo for 2027?

01:59:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002659

Wala ho, hindi ho siya na take up.

01:59:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002660

Wala ho sa NEP namin.

01:59:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002661

Wala rin ho sa HGAB.

01:59:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002662

Pero nasa Tier 2 po namin.

01:59:11Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002663

Alright. Thank you, Secretary.

01:59:13Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002664

Well, anyway, Madam Chair, I really do support.

01:59:16Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002665

Ito pong budget ng DSWD.

01:59:21Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002666

And kung ako pong tatanungin nyo as a DSWD Secretary, sakit po talaga sa ulo pag may mga dilubyo.

01:59:27Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002667

Kinakabahan po ang Secretary dahil una pong tinatawagan ka agad ng Pangulo ang kalihim po ng DSWD na tinatanong kung kumusta.

01:59:36Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002668

So early in the morning, 4 o'clock, 5 o'clock, sumatawag na po ang Malacanang at kinukumusta.

01:59:42Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002669

Anyway, I know the feeling as Secretary.

01:59:44Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002670

But I do support.

01:59:46Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002671

But Madam Chair, and then hopefully sa plenary, we can add yung mga wish list po nila.

01:59:53Source

Senator Erwin T. Tulfo

asr-002672

Thank you, Madam Chair.

01:59:54Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002673

Thank you, Senator Erwin. Pagtulungan po natin yan.

01:59:56Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002674

So now, ang salamat sa pasensya ninyo.

01:59:59Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002675

It's the turn.

02:00:00Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002676

of the Senate President.

02:00:01Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002677

Thank you, Madam Chairperson.

02:00:04Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002678

Sundan ko po yung mga tanong

02:00:05Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002679

ni Senator Erwin

02:00:06Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002680

dahil marami po siyang importanteng

02:00:09Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002681

points na na-raise

02:00:12Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002682

one of which itong

02:00:13Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002683

I saw in the slide of the SWD

02:00:16Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002684

slide 11

02:00:18Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002685

Wait, can we

02:00:19Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002686

flash it for a sec?

02:00:23Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002687

Na

02:00:24Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002688

nabibigay sa QRF

02:00:28Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002689

for example

02:00:29Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002690

in 2026, nabigay sa

02:00:31Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002691

QRF is 3 billion

02:00:33Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002692

but yung replenishment is

02:00:35Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002693

13. So, it's almost

02:00:37Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002694

4 times the amount

02:00:39Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002695

Pa-flash, ComSec?

02:00:41Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002696

Page 20 po ba yun, Tech?

02:00:44Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002697

Quick response, Juan.

02:00:46Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002698

Page 20

02:00:47Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002699

The SWD slide

02:00:59Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002700

and so

02:01:02Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002701

and then

02:01:03Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002702

13 billion ang replenishment

02:01:05Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002703

This is September, di pa tayo tapos

02:01:07Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002704

ang taon

02:01:08Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002705

Earlier, we had a hearing

02:01:12Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002706

with the Department of Agriculture

02:01:14Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002707

at magandang sinabi

02:01:16Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002708

ni Secretary Kiko

02:01:18Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002709

na merong very close

02:01:20Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002710

coordination with the SWD

02:01:22Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002711

and DOLE to respond to

02:01:24Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002712

those who are affected

02:01:26Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002713

by El Nino

02:01:27Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002714

So, nako-conserve

02:01:29Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002715

nagiging efficient yung

02:01:31Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002716

pagtulong natin sa tao

02:01:33Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002717

but in this case, makikita natin na

02:01:36Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002718

ganito kalaki

02:01:37Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002719

yung replenishment

02:01:39Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002720

and kung ibabangga natin

02:01:42Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002721

ito sa 2027

02:01:43Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002722

it's only 1.25 billion

02:01:46Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002723

So, obviously

02:01:47Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002724

obviously

02:01:50Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002725

magre-replenish yan

02:01:51Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002726

and

02:01:52Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002727

like I said in my opening speech

02:01:56Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002728

in El Nino, umpisa pa lang

02:01:57Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002729

eh

02:01:58Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002730

at

02:02:00Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002731

in-expect natin na mas

02:02:03Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002732

sasabay ito doon

02:02:06Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002733

sa nangyayari sa Iran

02:02:07Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002734

which is inflationary

02:02:09Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002735

at hopefully

02:02:11Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002736

wala na tayong makita pang iba pang

02:02:13Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002737

mga natural calamities

02:02:15Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002738

So,

02:02:17Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002739

gusto ko lang i-point out

02:02:19Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002740

yan and

02:02:21Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002741

when we were looking at the

02:02:24Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002742

NEP

02:02:25Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002743

and DREAM Fund, kung saan yung source

02:02:27Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002744

yan, di ba?

02:02:28Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002745

Yan ang source ng replenishment

02:02:30Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002746

nabawasan siya ng 9 billion

02:02:32Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002747

from NEP to GAB

02:02:33Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002748

Center Tulfo

02:02:36Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002749

So, this is a

02:02:38Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002750

for me, a concerning

02:02:39Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002751

event

02:02:42Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002752

dahil

02:02:43Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002753

alam natin na

02:02:48Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002754

delikado tayo in the next

02:02:50Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002755

maybe in the next 6 to 12 months

02:02:52Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002756

because of El Nino

02:02:54Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002757

but yan again

02:02:55Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002758

nabawasan ng 9.5 billion

02:02:58Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002759

yung N-DREAM Fund

02:02:59Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002760

of which yan ang source ng department

02:03:02Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002761

pag nagre-replenish

02:03:04Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002762

So, in other words

02:03:05Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002763

the point I'm trying to make

02:03:07Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002764

agawan na nga yung

02:03:08Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002765

N-DREAM Fund

02:03:10Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002766

and nakita natin dito sa replenishment

02:03:12Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002767

at the same time

02:03:14Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002768

nabawasan pa

02:03:15Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002769

So, yun yung isang bagay na

02:03:17Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002770

we will work here in the Senate

02:03:20Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002771

na mabalik ma-restore yung

02:03:22Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002772

NEP level ng N-DREAM

02:03:23Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002773

dahil nakikita ko in the next 12 months

02:03:26Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002774

talagang kakalanganin natin

02:03:28Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002775

ang standby fund

02:03:30Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002776

for the support

02:03:32Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002777

to our constituents

02:03:33Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002778

especially our farmers, fisher folks

02:03:36Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002779

yung mga

02:03:38Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002780

tinamaan ng inflation

02:03:42Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002781

alam ko nagbigay rin kayo

02:03:44Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002782

ng tulong dun sa mga poor

02:03:46Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002783

and near poor, which is about

02:03:47Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002784

3 million families, tama ba?

02:03:50Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002785

In total, 7.5 million

02:03:51Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002786

7.5 families

02:03:52Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002787

Hindi pa tayo kasi tapos sa inflationary effects

02:03:56Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002788

Nandiyan pa siya

02:03:58Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002789

and yun naman ang binabantayan natin

02:04:00Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002790

dahil inflation

02:04:01Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002791

can push our

02:04:04Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002792

push our efforts

02:04:07Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002793

to lower down poverty incidents back

02:04:09Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002794

So, we need to make sure

02:04:10Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002795

that we have that resources

02:04:12Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002796

para matulungan natin sila

02:04:14Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002797

at least temporarily

02:04:17Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002798

o pangtawid lang hanggang matapos tayo

02:04:19Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002799

dito sa mga crisis na hinaharap natin

02:04:21Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002800

So, I just want to

02:04:23Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002801

put that on record na

02:04:25Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002802

we need to restore

02:04:26Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002803

itong N-DREAM Fund

02:04:28Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002804

na nabawasan

02:04:29Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002805

ng 9.5 billion pesos

02:04:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002806

I agree Madam Chair

02:04:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002807

with the observation

02:04:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002808

In fact, isa ko yan sana sa pabanggitin namin

02:04:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002809

pero naunahan na ho kami

02:04:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002810

dahil nga the DSWD uses the replenishment

02:04:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002811

not just for emergency cash transfer

02:04:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002812

pero yung mga food packs na pinamimigay natin

02:04:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002813

at saka yung mga logistics costs

02:04:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002814

entailed to it, doon rin ho namin kinukuha

02:04:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002815

and it will severely impair

02:04:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002816

our, not just kami

02:04:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002817

everybody, any department

02:04:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002818

tapped into the N-DREAM Funds

02:04:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002819

will be impaired in responding

02:05:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002820

to any crisis

02:05:01Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002821

And then I saw dito doon sa slide nyo

02:05:04Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002822

ginamit nito for disaster affected families

02:05:07Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002823

so marami dito

02:05:09Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002824

prepositioning of goods

02:05:11Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002825

So, it's really

02:05:14Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002826

sabi nga ni Sen. Erwin

02:05:15Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002827

kailangan na kailangan ito

02:05:16Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002828

dahil pag may mga ganitong disaster

02:05:18Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002829

ang unang tinatawagan

02:05:20Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002830

DSWD Secretary

02:05:22Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002831

at hindi lang naman

02:05:23Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002832

pag may disaster na

02:05:24Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002833

dapat yung goods naka-preposition

02:05:26Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002834

or else

02:05:27Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002835

paano naman magre-responde

02:05:29Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002836

ang gobyerno kung walang goods

02:05:31Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002837

na naka-preposition

02:05:32Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002838

My next question

02:05:36Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002839

is also related doon sa mga

02:05:38Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002840

tanong ni Sen. Erwin

02:05:39Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002841

on 4Ps

02:05:41Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002842

Nakita ko dito sa

02:05:44Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002843

sa

02:05:45Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002844

sa budget

02:05:49Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002845

and na

02:05:51Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002846

ang budget ng 4Ps

02:05:53Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002847

nabawasan ng 13 billion

02:05:54Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002848

and it's a good thing

02:05:55Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002849

kasi gusto natin nababawasan

02:05:57Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002850

ng mahihirap sa ating bansa

02:05:59Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

ang goal naman ng

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002852

4Ps is pantawid eh

02:06:03Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002853

ibig sabihin hanggang

02:06:05Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002854

makatawid ang ating mga pamilya

02:06:07Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002855

sa kanilang kakayahan

02:06:09Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002856

andyan yung gobyerno

02:06:11Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002857

para bigyan sila ng tulong

02:06:13Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002858

So, nabawasan siya ng

02:06:16Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002859

ng 13 billion

02:06:19Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002860

and before it was about

02:06:22Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002861

4.1 million household

02:06:24Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002862

ngayon ang target is about 3.5

02:06:27Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002866

So may we get an update kung

02:06:29Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002867

ano ba ang nakikita natin

02:06:35Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002868

Direksyon ng 4Ps

02:06:36Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002869

and ano ba yung mga

02:06:37Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002870

naging magagandang

02:06:41Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002871

bacta ng

02:06:43Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-002872

4Ps

02:06:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002873

Madam Chair.

02:06:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002874

Mt. Sen goes

02:06:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002875

The Sen. is correct

02:06:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002876

Nabawasan po pero

02:06:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002877

just for the record

02:06:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002878

hindi ho dahil

02:06:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002879

yung programa ay

02:06:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002880

Hindi hamaapekto nyo yung program

02:06:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002881

Ang instructo ng ating Pangulo

02:06:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002882

to make sure na reflective yung numero ng four-piece family sa poverty incidents.

02:07:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002883

So this was the poverty incidents pangaho na 15.5%.

02:07:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002884

Hindi pangaho yung 9% kasi kakalabas lang nung 9%.

02:07:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002885

So nung una ho kasi, that number has been pegged for the longest time at 4.4 million families,

02:07:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002886

no matter kung anuman ang naging poverty incidents.

02:07:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002887

So ang direktiba ng ating Pangulo is to make sure that the list is clean.

02:07:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002888

Kasi nung sinimulan to ni Sen Erwin, lumabas lang siya but memorize niya to,

02:07:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002889

sinimulan niya yung cleaning of the list.

02:07:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002890

So tinuloy ho natin nung pumasok tayo but we did it also through proper case management.

02:07:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002891

Ang nangyari ho dito, we hired more nung dumating ho kami na pagbigyan tayo natamihan yung mga case managers natin,

02:07:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002892

yung mga city links natin.

02:07:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002893

They are the lifeline of the program kasi sila yung nagmamonitor kung pwede na i-exit.

02:07:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002894

So ngayon, kapag i-exit,

02:07:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002895

na-exit na tayo ng 1.77 million.

02:07:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002896

That's from 2022 all the way to 2025.

02:08:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002897

Prior to that, ang na-exit lang sa programa was 15,000 families.

02:08:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002898

So napakalayo na ho nung numero.

02:08:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002899

Now, the updates to the program, number one, the case management has been strengthened.

02:08:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002900

More social workers and development workers doing case management.

02:08:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002901

Para yung mga dapat ma-exit, pwede nang ma-exit.

02:08:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002902

Pangalawa,

02:08:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002903

yung in-automate rin ho natin, and it's live now, the system is live.

02:08:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002904

Dati-rati ho kasi, there are 14 systems that do not talk to each other.

02:08:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002905

Kaya matagal yung grants na napukuha.

02:08:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002906

Right now, the new system that we call 4Ps Forward is already live.

02:08:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002907

It will take full effect by December.

02:08:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002908

Anong kakaiba sa system na to?

02:08:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002909

It's fully integrated.

02:08:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002910

So from the time you register as a beneficiary all the way to payout,

02:08:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002911

wala na hong download, encode, upload, wala na hong ganon.

02:08:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002912

So we've armed our 14...

02:08:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002913

15,000 na mga links, case managers, with an iPad, with a tablet, and a laptop.

02:09:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002914

Kasi nga, there's no point in buying a new system if you don't arm them with hardware.

02:09:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002915

So kompleto na ho sila.

02:09:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002916

So the beauty of that is, kung dati-rati nag-aantay ho ang ating mga grantees

02:09:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002917

ng almost 60 days to 75 days to get their grants,

02:09:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002918

in the new system, makukuha na nila yung health grant nila at rise subsidy nila

02:09:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002919

within the same month, or 45 days, within 45 days.

02:09:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002920

Now, also, meron ho itong collateral benefits sa DepEd.

02:09:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002921

The new system is now self-contained.

02:09:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002922

Kasi dati, kinukomplain ng DepEd na yung mga guro nila ang gumagawa ng compliance,

02:09:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002923

kaya napaka-volumous nung report doon sa EDUC grant.

02:09:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002924

So nababawasan yung oras nila magturo.

02:09:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002925

So by the end of the year, it will be beneficiaries-driven na.

02:09:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002926

Hindi na kami aasa sa mga guro natin na gumawa ng report,

02:09:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002927

kundi yung report card na mismo ng mga bata,

02:09:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002928

ng ating mga magulang, during the family development session,

02:09:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002929

scan, update the record, you get your education grant.

02:09:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002930

Sa health grant, ganun din.

02:09:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002931

They will have their own booklets na hindi na kami aasa sa mga DOH barangay doctors

02:10:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002932

kasi ang dami na nilang ginagawa.

02:10:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002933

So the system is self-contained and it's more efficient.

02:10:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002934

Now, we are also coming up with a support program for the child-monitored children.

02:10:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002935

Nakita natin sa datos, and alam ko, alam to ng Senate President,

02:10:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002936

pagdating sa comparison ng studies between four-piece and non-four-piece sa basic ed,

02:10:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002937

pantay, near universal.

02:10:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002938

Pagdating sa secondary ed, education,

02:10:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002939

the four-piece beneficiaries does slightly better than non-four-piece beneficiaries,

02:10:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002940

pero sabay rin silang bumabagsak pagdating sa tertiary education.

02:10:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002941

Ang maganda hong nagpapasalamat kami dahil sa new tertiary amendments to the TES,

02:10:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002942

e ngayon talagang categorical na sinabi na four-piece not listed.

02:10:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002943

So talagang, we've already embarked on a massive education campaign to our beneficiaries to avail of this service.

02:10:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002944

Pero during my talks with the beneficiaries, marami sa kanila pa rin ang sinasabi,

02:11:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002945

yung cost of going to school is the problem.

02:11:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002946

Kasi marami sa kanila na sa mga bundok, so they have to, bundok at isla,

02:11:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002947

or geographically isolated and disadvantaged area,

02:11:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002948

luluwa sila sa mga capital or city centers para mag-dorm, para mag-aral.

02:11:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002949

So the program has a distinct feature.

02:11:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002950

It's called the Enhanced Support Service Intervention.

02:11:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002951

Nung dumating ako nandiyan na ho yan, it's enshrined in the guideline.

02:11:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002952

Madati, yung pondo na yun, it's part of the budget already, we're not going to ask for more.

02:11:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002953

Ginagamit lang yan sa a varied myriad of things.

02:11:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002954

May livelihood, okay naman, merong support, other support.

02:11:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002955

Now we've converted it and we're launching it come December.

02:11:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002956

It's called the Tuloy Program, meaning Tuloy Kolehyo, Tuloy Aral at Tuloy Trabaho.

02:11:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002957

So we, consulting with development experts, we will now come up with yung mga monitored children.

02:11:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002958

If they can show that nag-enroll sila, then we will give them a one-time 10,000 grant na 10,000 assistance para mag-tuloy ng kolehyo.

02:12:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002959

Now, succeedingly, if they continue to stay in college, then they can show the attendance through the requirements we'll ask for.

02:12:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002960

Tuloy Aral naman, they get additional 5,000 that they can use together with the allowance they get from TES

02:12:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002961

to support

02:12:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002963

their course of studying.

02:12:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002964

And last, Tuloy Trabaho is when they do graduate out of college, we give them another one-time grant na 10,000 so that they can embark on career,

02:12:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002965

meaning to get the requirements, whatever pre-employment requirements they need.

02:12:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002966

So, in-enhance lang namin yung program to make sure that we lengthen the horizon at matuloy talaga yung pag-aaral nila.

02:12:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002967

Now, I know I've said a lot, but those are the program enhancements, but if you're looking for the impacts, we can flash

02:12:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002968

on the screen the impacts.

02:12:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002969

Kanina ko ba sinabi?

02:12:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002970

Who's the impacts?

02:12:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002971

Akin yung impact.

02:13:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002972

Kanina pala sinabi, hindi mo nalimot.

02:13:04Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002973

Ito ba yung page 9 nyo sa CREX?

02:13:07Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-002974

Okay, there we are.

02:13:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002975

So, after 18 years, very, very clear na ho yung mga impacts, numerous impact assessments have been done.

02:13:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002976

First things first, the World Bank has already said,

02:13:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002977

na number one, the four-piece program can be attributed to 2.2% poverty reduction.

02:13:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002978

Its cost per, its rate of return is also one of the better ones for the government.

02:13:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002979

Ano saan ba yan?

02:13:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002980

Yes, sir.

02:13:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002981

Hindi ko nga makita

02:13:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002982

Which page?

02:13:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002983

...

02:13:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002984

...

02:13:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002985

Nasaan ito ba?

02:13:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002986

...

02:13:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002987

So, again, the rate of return is one of the better ones.

02:13:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002988

And then,

02:13:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002989

So, these are independent assessments done by so many groups.

02:13:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002990

Also, there's a World Bank study that is already published that says,

02:13:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002991

number one, our four-piece children compared to our non-four-piece children stay in school longer by almost

02:14:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002992

53% of our former youth beneficiaries earn the bachelor's degree versus 31% for non-beneficiaries.

02:14:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002993

So, that means they're staying in school and completing their college education.

02:14:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002994

Then, 44% of those na beneficiaries namin end up with permanent jobs, nearly double the non-four-piece na beneficiaries.

02:14:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002995

25% lang yun, kami 44%.

02:14:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002996

So, meaning nakakapagtrabaho sila, so natutuloy na yung pagputol ng intergenerational poverty.

02:14:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002997

And last, they also cited the 55% of our young women, former young four-piece beneficiaries,

02:14:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002998

achieve permanent employment compared to 33%.

02:14:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-002999

So, nakikita na po natin yung fruition ng programa.

02:14:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003000

Although early, pero 18 years later, nasusukat na natin concretely na nabibreak yung intergenerational poverty.

02:15:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003001

Beyond the numbers that I showed kanina, how many thousands graduated, these numbers speak for the program's fruition of breaking intergenerational poverty.

02:15:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003002

Also, in the PSA study, sorry, not the PSA study, the latest FIES of PSA, they cited five things why poverty also went down to 9%.

02:15:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003003

First, in a household, you would get foreign remittance, so yung mga OFW nila nakamag-anak, entrepreneurship, nakapaghanap ng hanap buhay,

02:15:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003004

the controlled prices dahil inflation was low, but one of the reasons they also cited is cash transfers.

02:15:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003005

And a big chunk of that in protecting the households and pulling them out of poverty was cash transfer.

02:15:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003006

And attributable yan to a big chunk sa 4Ps.

02:15:54Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003007

Thank you for those answers.

02:16:01Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003008

Actually, itong program na ito, ang isang programa na pag bumaba ba yung budget, natutuwa ko eh.

02:16:08Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003009

Dahil alam natin na bumaba ba yung bilang ng mahihirap sa ating bansa.

02:16:13Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003010

Of course, malayo pa tayo with 3.5 million poorest of the poor family.

02:16:20Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003011

But tutuwa ko dahil 1.7 million ang...

02:16:24Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003012

na ilabas natin sa poorest of the poor category.

02:16:28Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003013

Ngayon, my next question is, how do we continue the gains?

02:16:35Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003014

This is related to what I said earlier, which is El Nino.

02:16:39Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003015

And also, yung last PSA poverty survey was 2025.

02:16:47Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003016

Wala pang gera ng era nun.

02:16:49Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003017

Wala pa tayong El Nino.

02:16:51Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003018

Wala pa tayong 7.5 inflation.

02:16:54Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003019

2025, actually, mababa ang inflation natin at that time.

02:16:58Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003020

Inflation is a, I would call it, is a poverty, it can cause poverty in our country.

02:17:09Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003021

So, how do we maintain yung pababa na trajectory ng poverty reduction natin?

02:17:21Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003022

I'll start off with El Nino.

02:17:24Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003023

And then, I also want to understand anong ginagawa ng department to prepare for this El Nino.

02:17:31Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003024

Kanina sinabi ni Secretary na they're looking at...

02:17:35Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003025

Secretary Kiko Laurela, they're looking at...

02:17:44Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003026

close to 350,000 affected farmers.

02:17:52Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003027

No?

02:17:53Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003028

So, medyo...

02:17:54Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003029

Malaki-laki yun.

02:18:00Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003030

And, of course, itong affected farmers,

02:18:04Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003031

mawawalan sila ng trabaho, mawawalan sila ng livelihood.

02:18:07Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003032

So, how are we preparing for that?

02:18:09Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-003033

Secrex, bago kayo sumagot, gusto lang i-acknowledge ng chair,

02:18:13Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-003034

yung presensya ng aming Finance Committee Chair, Senator JV.

02:18:18Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-003035

Salamat sa pagdalo ninyo.

02:18:20Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-003036

At presensya din ni Senator Bong Go.

02:18:23Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-003037

Salamat kayo, Senator.

02:18:24Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-003038

Thank you, Senator Bong, for joining us.

02:18:26Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-003039

After yung itong first round ni SP, tanongin ko kayo dalawa kung gusto nyo mag-opening remarks.

02:18:33Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-003040

When the...

02:18:35Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003041

Ang sabi pala ni Secretary Kiko Laurela is 4 million farmers can be affected at the worst case scenario.

02:18:42Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003042

And we have 10 million workers in the agriculture industry.

02:18:47Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003043

Dahil nga, iba, drought eh.

02:18:48Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003044

Wala silang pwedeng pagtaniman.

02:18:53Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003045

At...

02:18:53Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003046

Talagang magkakaroon tayo ng widespread unemployment kung at the worst case scenario.

02:18:59Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003047

So, two questions.

02:19:01Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003048

One is, how do we prevent El Nino?

02:19:04Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003049

Or how do we mitigate El Nino in terms of poverty reduction?

02:19:08Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003050

And how are we addressing El Nino this coming next few months?

02:19:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003051

Madam Sir, bago ko siguro masagot yung El Nino,

02:19:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003052

lagay ko muna sa konteksto nung responde namin sa energy emergency.

02:19:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003053

Kasi yung energy emergency was already detrimental or nanganib na ho sila noon.

02:19:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003054

So, when I say sila, yung mga near poor and poor families ho natin,

02:19:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003055

kasama yung mga 4Ps ho natin doon.

02:19:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003056

We were working closely with the PEDS or one of their fellows,

02:19:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003057

si Professor Toots Albert, in designing the uplift assistance.

02:19:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003058

This comes into play kasi we were looking at the diminished na spending power nila

02:19:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003059

of almost around 1,200 to 1,500 pesos.

02:19:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003060

Doon namin na-draw yung 2,000 pesos monthly na ipinamahagi sa kanila.

02:19:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003061

So, we embarked on a...

02:19:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003062

Tawag namin,

02:19:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003063

This is an EVH, Emergency Scheme, Vertical Expansion or Horizontal Expansion.

02:19:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003064

Ito ho yung rasyonale ng design ng uplift assistance.

02:20:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003065

That's why una, may Group 1 tayo.

02:20:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003066

Nakatanggap ang ating mga 4Ps beneficiaries ng one-time top-up na 2,000 pesos last July or August.

02:20:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003067

The second one was Group 2, meaning yung mga near poor or poor na hindi ho bahagi ng 4Ps

02:20:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003068

dahil they did not meet the conditionalities.

02:20:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003069

There are around 2.5 million households doon.

02:20:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003070

Yun ho.

02:20:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003071

Nakakatanggap yun at patuloy nakakatanggap ng 2,000 pesos since July all the way to December.

02:20:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003072

Sa aming pag-uusap sa uplift committee at sa direktiba ng ating Pangulo,

02:20:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003073

we are playing it close to the ground na kung humaba yung energy emergency,

02:20:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003074

e maaring humaba rin to.

02:20:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003075

So, for now, ang design niya is still December, but we will look at the situation

02:20:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003076

and if we're warranted, sinabi naman ang ating Pangulo that we can extend this.

02:20:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003077

Now, Group 3 is yung low-wage SSS earners.

02:20:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003078

That's 1.5 million families naman.

02:20:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003079

Individuals or household.

02:20:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003080

Yan naman ho, kinonsider namin sila na vulnerable because their monthly salary credits only amounts to 20,000.

02:21:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003081

In fact, later on, in-expand pa namin all the way to mas mababa na 10,000 pesos monthly salary credit.

02:21:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003082

Now, Madam Chair, I spoke about this kasi yung target, etong mga grupo na to,

02:21:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003083

sigurado ko sila rin yung maapektuhan ng Elminio.

02:21:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003084

So, right now, we gave protection to 7.5 million families.

02:21:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003085

A lot of these families will be the same families that will be severely affected by the Elminio drought.

02:21:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003086

Marami, 70% to 85% of our four-piece beneficiaries are farmers.

02:21:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003087

In fact, a big chunk of Group 2, Group 1, are not in the urban areas.

02:21:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003088

They're in the municipalities or rural areas.

02:21:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003089

Nakikita namin yan when we do the payouts.

02:21:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003090

Now, moving forward, I want to show our slide.

02:21:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003091

Meron ba tayong presentation ng El Niño?

02:21:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003092

...

02:21:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003093

So, the El Niño preparations of the department.

02:21:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003094

Ito po, when I got to the department, and alam ko nire-reform rin ito ni Sen. Erwin noon, hindi lang yan natapos.

02:22:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003095

We have a line item called the Disaster Resilience Response Rehabilitation Program, DRRP.

02:22:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003096

That's a 1.1 billion expenditure in our books.

02:22:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003097

Now, nung nadatna namin yan, that's a cash-for-work program na yung work program was very loose

02:22:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003098

in the sense na iba-iba yung pinagagawa sa kanila.

02:22:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003099

So, what we did was,

02:22:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003100

we consulted with the Department of Agriculture, World Food Program,

02:22:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003101

and we revamped it as early as 2023,

02:22:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003102

na isa, dalawa lang ang ginagawa nila,

02:22:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003103

two monolithic programs nationwide.

02:22:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003104

It's called LAWA, which are sweeps yun,

02:22:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003105

yung small water impounding projects.

02:22:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003106

So, we asked the A, where are the springs?

02:22:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003107

Kasi doon namin nilalagay yung mga sweeps natin.

02:22:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003108

And then they would also plant around it.

02:22:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003109

Now, right now, these are found in communities that were targeted initially by the Climate Change Commission,

02:22:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003110

and pag-aasa as drought.

02:22:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003111

Noon pa, as drought, malapit sila sa drought, or any forms of climate change.

02:23:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003112

So, these are the same communities that will be affected or are being affected already by El Nino.

02:23:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003113

So, these sweeps or small water impounding systems na help them irrigate small community farms

02:23:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003114

and at the same time provide income because yung mga naaani nila dyan,

02:23:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003115

by the way, yung seeds at yung mga isda na linalagay dyan ay galing sa PA.

02:23:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003116

Sila nag-iprovide ng technical assistance.

02:23:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003117

Binibenta nila yan either through feeding program, through the Walang Gutom, or they consume it themselves.

02:23:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003118

So, somehow, yung panawagan ng DA na to do community gardens to ease prices ng pagkain is already underway.

02:23:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003119

We, in fact, have 5,000 of these sweeps nationwide.

02:23:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003120

Small water impounding projects.

02:23:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003121

Hindi ho yan nangyari overnight.

02:23:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003122

Pinaghandaan ho namin siya since 2023, kaya ganyan karami ho yan.

02:23:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003123

These sweeps are still...

02:23:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003124

active right now.

02:23:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003125

And the Department of Agriculture is helping us by introducing drought-resilient crops,

02:24:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003126

both high-value and regular, katulad ng taro, kamote, and pag high-value, watermelon, okra.

02:24:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003127

So, yan ho yung mga... yan yung partnership namin ng Department of Agriculture.

02:24:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003128

So, when we say resilient, so kasi we didn't look at El Nino just now,

02:24:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003129

but we were looking at El Nino way back in 2023, or La Nina as a matter of fact.

02:24:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003130

5,000 small water...

02:24:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003131

small water impounding systems or projects cannot be built in a span of couple of months.

02:24:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003132

That this was done way, way back.

02:24:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003133

Now, that's the first one in terms of social development.

02:24:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003134

We provide cash assistance.

02:24:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003135

By the way, baka matanong nyo anong connection namin doon?

02:24:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003136

Yung cash for work nila, for 20 days, they do the sweeps lang.

02:24:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003137

They do the impounding lang.

02:24:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003138

And then, kung ano yung inani doon sa kanila na yun, and then napapaikot na nila by themselves.

02:24:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003139

Now, on the second slide...

02:24:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003140

The second slide, obviously, yung bilanggit ni Sekiko kanina,

02:24:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003141

yung farmers na maapektuhan.

02:24:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003142

Nag-start na ho kami ng emergency cash transfers in Cagayan, in Isabela, Camarines Norte, as we speak.

02:25:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003143

Now, we are monitoring it based on the declarations of state of calamity.

02:25:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003144

And like Sekiko said, may close coordination kami, they will pass on to us areas of vulnerability.

02:25:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003145

Na tulad ng nangyari sa RSSI, they were the ones who told us which provinces to move into

02:25:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003146

based also on the state of calamity.

02:25:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003147

Next slide.

02:25:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003148

Now, parang-parang...

02:25:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003149

For our social development, natatanong ho ito lagi sa akin, yung community-driven development o yung kalahi.

02:25:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003150

Remember, kalahi, naubos na ho yung ODA niyan when we joined the department in 2024.

02:25:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003151

So, we applied for a new ODA that was approved, and you can see it in the unprogrammed also at my line item yan.

02:25:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003152

It's called Pagkilos.

02:25:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003153

Basically, the community-driven development was converted into community-driven development

02:25:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003154

looking at disaster resilience to include droughts.

02:25:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003155

So, one particular project that already opened and we're expanding it will be...

02:25:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003156

Now, this community, for instance, in Masbate, nasa isla yan, I've been there, wala talagang tubig sila.

02:25:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003157

So, this system is supposed to help them in the wash, to come up with sanitary water para sa mga community nila

02:26:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003158

kasi right now, they have to go to the town proper and spend so much money to get just a liter of water.

02:26:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003159

And right now, it's coming in handy during the El Nino.

02:26:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003160

So, our approach, Madam Chairman, is both social development and social protection.

02:26:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003161

Social protection.

02:26:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003162

Yung ECT as a means of bridging them para hindi ho sila mahulog palalim sa kahirapan.

02:26:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003163

When we look at AICs or emergency cash transfer, hindi naman siya the ends to the means.

02:26:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003164

The means to the end.

02:26:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003165

But rather, it's a pantawid.

02:26:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003166

So, sana gagamitin namin yun para maitawid sila, yung mga magsasaka o yung mga mangingisda na maapektuhan during the next six months.

02:26:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003167

Pero at the same time, we're embarking on social development programs that are meant for the long term.

02:26:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003168

Katulad ng Project Lawat Binhi at netong air-to-water system ng community-driven development.

02:26:51Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003169

Yung kaninang pinakita ninyo, can we go back to that slide?

02:27:00Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003170

Yung slide ng mga binigyan ng may different categories in uplift slide.

02:27:10Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003171

Nakita ko na ang beneficiaries noon is about 6.5 million?

02:27:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003172

Sir, sir.

02:27:16Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003173

6.5 million.

02:27:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003174

Yes, but the target was 7.5.

02:27:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003175

Hinahanap pa namin.

02:27:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003176

Well, yan ay hinahanap namin using CPMSS data and SSS data.

02:27:25Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003177

But, and ang ginamit na pondo dyan is the IX fund, no?

02:27:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003178

The IX po ang ginagamit ko dyan.

02:27:33Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003179

And then, dito sa slide ninyo, slide 11, nakita ko na to date or September, as of September,

02:27:41Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003180

ang beneficiaries is about, total beneficiaries is 8.7 million beneficiaries.

02:27:48Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003181

So, in other words…

02:27:50Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003182

Yung uplift, andiyan pala, 8.7 million yung beneficiaries.

02:27:59Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003183

Pero, out of that 8.7, 7.5 galing sa…

02:28:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003184

To clarify, Madam Chair, both are drawn from the IX funds.

02:28:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003185

Itong tinutukoy ng slide na to, na tinutukoy ng Senate President, ay IX regular.

02:28:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003186

Ito ho yung mga pumupunta sa sasina.

02:28:14Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003187

Pero dyan rin kinuhin uplift?

02:28:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003188

Yes, kinukuha siya from the same pot.

02:28:18Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003189

Okay.

02:28:19Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003190

Ang punto ko dito kasi…

02:28:20Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003191

Ang 2027 is 4.6 million ang target beneficiaries, or pwedeng mag-apply for the IX fund, di ba?

02:28:31Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003192

Kung ang DA is already projecting at the worst case scenario, 4 million, ubos na kagad yan sa DA.

02:28:38Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003193

That's a point I'm trying to make.

02:28:41Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003194

And this is only DA.

02:28:43Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003195

Hindi pa natin kinakount yan kung tuloy-tuloy yung gera sa Iran at sumipa to $150 per barrel, or even $200.

02:28:50Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003196

Hindi natin malaman ngayon.

02:28:52Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003197

Medyo wild-wild west doon.

02:28:55Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003198

So, the 4 million is only for the farmers, pero we all learned na sa uplift, 7.5 ang binigyan na.

02:29:05Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003199

So, mayroon pa tayong…

02:29:08Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003200

Dapat ang nakahanda tayo is between 4 million to maybe 8 million beneficiaries for the next 6 to 12 months.

02:29:17Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003201

So, yun ang nakikita kong based on the briefing ng mga sekretary.

02:29:20Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003202

So, yun ang nakikita kong dapat paghandaan natin.

02:29:23Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003203

But 2027, in other words, is only 4.6.

02:29:28Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003204

So, hindi siya responsive to the situation in the next 6 to 12 months.

02:29:32Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003205

Mabuti kung walang gera.

02:29:33Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003206

Mabuti kung walang El Nino, di ba?

02:29:36Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003207

Baka pwede yan.

02:29:37Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003208

In the normal circumstances, pwede yan.

02:29:39Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003209

Pero alam naman natin, in the next 6 to 12 months, ibang situation natin.

02:29:46Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003210

Very delikado yung ating situation.

02:29:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003211

But I'm sure that's why we have been very vocal about augmenting the AICs kasi it becomes our lifeline.

02:29:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003212

And rightfully so, as the Senate President pointed out, bagamat meron kaming…

02:29:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003213

ibang fund source

02:30:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003214

like emergency cash transfer,

02:30:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003215

it's really never enough.

02:30:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003216

And just to point out,

02:30:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003217

umabot na rin ho kami

02:30:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003218

sa punto ngayon

02:30:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003219

na humihingi na kami

02:30:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003220

ng fund augmentation

02:30:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003221

from DBM

02:30:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003222

to beef up AICs

02:30:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003223

kasi nga hindi na siya sapat.

02:30:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003224

Kasi we've spent

02:30:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003225

10 billion immediately

02:30:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003226

during the summer

02:30:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003227

for the transfer workers.

02:30:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003228

Tapos ngayon,

02:30:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003229

we're supposed to cater

02:30:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003230

to 7.5

02:30:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003231

and we did get support

02:30:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003232

from DBM.

02:30:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003233

I believe those are drawn

02:30:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003234

from the various,

02:30:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003235

I'm not sure where they drew it

02:30:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003236

but that's for them

02:30:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003237

to answer.

02:30:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003238

But suffice to say,

02:30:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003239

binibigyan nila kami.

02:30:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003240

Pero tama ho,

02:30:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003241

mahirap ho yung

02:30:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003242

uncertainty

02:30:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003243

na

02:30:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003244

I don't know where

02:30:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003245

they're drawing it

02:30:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003246

pero syempre,

02:30:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003247

humihingi kami.

02:30:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003248

Kung magka humihingi kami

02:30:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003249

ng augmentation,

02:30:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003250

that's very hard for us

02:30:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003251

kasi we're at the mercy

02:30:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003252

of whether

02:30:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003253

meron or wala

02:30:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003254

na dadating.

02:30:48Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003255

Yung kaninang

02:30:49Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003256

pinakitang LAWA

02:30:50Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003257

and the other projects,

02:30:51Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003258

under disaster response

02:30:52Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003259

and rehabilitation program?

02:30:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003260

Yes, that's a separate line item

02:30:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003261

in our

02:30:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003262

disaster fund.

02:30:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003263

That's about 1.9 billion.

02:30:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003264

1.9 billion, yes.

02:31:02Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003265

1.9 billion.

02:31:03Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003266

And emergency cash transfer,

02:31:04Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003267

andyan rin yan?

02:31:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003268

Hindi po.

02:31:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003269

Kinukuha ho yun sa quick response.

02:31:07Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003270

Ah, sa quick response.

02:31:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003271

Because the preparedness fund

02:31:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003272

its name is to prepare,

02:31:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003273

then sa quick response

02:31:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003274

is to respond.

02:31:13Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003275

Alright.

02:31:13Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003276

Thank you for that.

02:31:15Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003277

Madam Chairperson,

02:31:17Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003278

I have one more question.

02:31:20Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-003279

If you proceed SP.

02:31:22Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003280

02:31:23Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003282

si Senator Erwin

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003283

yung question niya

02:31:27Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003284

on the senior citizens.

02:31:29Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003285

I would like to jump

02:31:32Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003286

on the senior citizens.

02:31:34Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003287

Nitignan ko yung

02:31:35Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003288

budget ninyo.

02:31:38Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003289

And the biggest chunk

02:31:39Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003290

of your

02:31:40Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003291

the biggest chunk

02:31:46Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003292

of your

02:31:47Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003293

3.8 billion budget

02:31:49Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003294

is the

02:31:51Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003295

senior citizens

02:31:53Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003296

welfare development program.

02:31:54Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003297

Tama po ba?

02:31:57Source

NCSC Acting Executive Director Ana Marie C. Calapit

asr-003298

Yes, boss.

02:31:58Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003299

And I would assume

02:31:58Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003300

this is the social

02:31:59Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003301

pension?

02:32:01Source

NCSC Acting Executive Director Ana Marie C. Calapit

asr-003302

That is the

02:32:02Source

NCSC Acting Executive Director Ana Marie C. Calapit

asr-003303

centenarian gifts.

02:32:03Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003304

Ah, this is the

02:32:03Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003305

centenarian gifts.

02:32:04Source

NCSC Acting Executive Director Ana Marie C. Calapit

asr-003306

Stone nature gifts.

02:32:05Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003307

Okay.

02:32:05Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003308

Yung social pension

02:32:06Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003309

is still with the DSWD?

02:32:08Source

NCSC Acting Executive Director Ana Marie C. Calapit

asr-003310

Yes, boss.

02:32:09Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003311

So, itong

02:32:09Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003312

ito is just purely

02:32:12Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003313

on the

02:32:13Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003314

yung binibigay natin

02:32:14Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003315

asr-003316

asr-003317

85,

02:32:18Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003318

90,

02:32:18Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003319

95,

02:32:19Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003320

100.

02:32:19Source

NCSC Acting Executive Director Ana Marie C. Calapit

asr-003321

Yes, boss.

02:32:21Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003322

Other than this program,

02:32:23Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003323

ako, I support

02:32:24Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003326

asr-003327

Matutuwa sila eh.

02:32:31Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003328

At

02:32:32Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003329

any dole out

02:32:35Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003332

matutuwa sila.

02:32:38Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003333

But

02:32:38Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003334

part of the mandate

02:32:40Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003335

ng

02:32:40Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003339

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003340

Diba?

02:32:47Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003341

So, other than

02:32:48Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003342

itong

02:32:49Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003577

Yes po.

02:36:48Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003578

But more so

02:36:49Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003579

is

02:36:49Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003580

ang mga

02:36:50Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

02:36:54Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003585

Ayaw nila

02:36:55Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003586

maging

02:36:56Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003587

burden

02:36:57Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003588

to society.

02:36:58Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003589

So,

02:36:59Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003590

ako sa Valenzuela,

02:37:01Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003591

kami ni

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003598

Gusto nila

asr-003599

maging independent.

02:37:09Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003600

So,

02:37:09Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003601

the point I'm trying

02:37:10Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003602

to make there is

02:37:11Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003603

to make them

02:37:12Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003604

independent,

02:37:13Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003605

one,

02:37:13Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003606

is to address

02:37:14Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003607

their health concerns.

02:37:16Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003608

Yun na nga,

02:37:16Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003609

may hospital na tayo

02:37:17Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003613

But number two,

02:37:22Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003614

is how do we make

02:37:23Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003615

02:37:24Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

02:37:25Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003621

but we cannot

02:37:29Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003622

make that as a

02:37:31Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-003623

sole policy.

02:37:33Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

02:40:32Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003794

and then

02:40:42Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003795

just a few questions,

02:40:45Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003796

Madam Chair.

02:40:47Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003797

The 2027 NEP

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003802

10.6 percent

02:40:55Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003803

actually below

02:40:56Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003804

the 2026.

02:40:57Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003805

The same time

02:40:59Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003806

house gab

02:40:59Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003807

as I mentioned earlier

02:41:01Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003808

reduces major increases

02:41:02Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003809

02:41:02Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003810

and disaster funding

02:41:04Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003811

while reducing

02:41:05Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003812

the Philippine community

02:41:06Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003813

resilience project.

02:41:07Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003814

We need to determine

02:41:09Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003815

which services are protected

02:41:10Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003816

and how those adjustments

02:41:11Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003817

will be measured.

02:41:12Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003818

So my first question is

02:41:14Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003819

what are the

02:41:14Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003820

three most important

02:41:15Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003825

Filipinos in 2027

02:41:22Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003826

with the budget

02:41:23Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003827

of as mentioned

02:41:25Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003828

the

02:41:26Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003829

it's 10% lower

02:41:28Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003830

at 241 billion.

02:41:30Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-003831

Just quickly siguro.

02:41:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

kaya napapag-grant

02:44:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003985

graduate ko sila

02:44:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003986

kaya lumiliit na yung budget.

02:44:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003987

Tulad nga na

02:44:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003988

sabi ng SP,

02:44:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003989

ito siguro yung programa

02:44:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003990

na matutuwa tayo

02:44:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003991

kung lumiliit siya.

02:44:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003992

Kasi nga,

02:44:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003993

pantawid lang siya.

02:44:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003994

It's really not meant

02:44:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003995

to last forever.

02:44:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003996

Now,

02:44:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003997

ang concrete namin

02:44:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003998

na execution plan dito,

02:44:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-003999

to fulfill its mandate

02:44:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004000

of breaking

02:44:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004001

intergenerational poverty

02:44:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004002

is we have to continue

02:44:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004003

investing doon

02:44:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004004

sa tatlong monitored children.

02:44:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004005

Siguraduhin natin na

02:44:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004006

makapag-kolehyo sila

02:44:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004007

para yung tatlong

02:44:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004008

monitored children

02:44:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004009

becomes the pantawid

02:44:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004010

of the family.

02:44:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004011

Kaya tulad nung

02:44:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004012

binanggit ko kanina,

02:44:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004013

yung enhanced support service

02:44:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004014

is now going to be

02:44:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004015

geared towards

02:44:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004016

the monitored children

02:44:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004017

carrying on their

02:44:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004018

college or tech voc careers.

02:45:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004019

hindi namin tatapat, hindi namin i-replicate

02:45:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004020

yung ginawa nyo na ho sa TES

02:45:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004021

enhancement, pero yung cost of

02:45:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004022

studying, yun pa rin ang daing nila.

02:45:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004023

Libre ang tuition, pero

02:45:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004024

pagdating naman nila sa mga syudad, uupa

02:45:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004025

sila ng bahay, pagkain,

02:45:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004026

and bagamat merong 15,000,

02:45:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004027

I believe na napibigay ang CHED for every

02:45:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004028

semester, it's really not enough. So

02:45:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004029

dadagdagan ho namin yun. Kasi our

02:45:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004030

plan talaga is at least, itong

02:45:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004031

tatlong monitored children,

02:45:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004032

namuhuna na tayo eh.

02:45:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004033

We make sure na makatapos na ho

02:45:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004034

talaga sila para sila yung maging pantawid

02:45:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004035

sa ating mga beneficiary.

02:45:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004036

And the exit mechanism still goes

02:45:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004037

back to tightening pa rin the program

02:45:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004038

execution. Case management

02:45:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004039

has to be strengthened pa rin

02:45:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004040

kasi doon ho natin matidetect yung mga

02:45:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004041

grievance na minsan nantagal na sa

02:45:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004042

programa, pero nandun pa rin.

02:45:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004043

Hindi naman qualified, pero nandun pa rin.

02:45:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004044

With a stronger case management,

02:45:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004045

na napabantayan talaga sila ng mga links

02:45:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004046

natin, ng mga caseworkers natin, we know

02:45:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004047

that we can do the execution of the

02:45:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004048

program better in terms of program

02:45:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004049

exiting.

02:46:00Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004050

Thank you. That's good to hear.

02:46:02Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004051

There are a lot of those who graduated na,

02:46:04Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004052

nag-exit na.

02:46:07Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004053

Also,

02:46:08Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004054

mentioned, there's a big

02:46:10Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004055

increase sa house gap, no?

02:46:12Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004056

Sa AICS, no? Protective Services,

02:46:14Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004057

principally AICS,

02:46:16Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004058

from 33.285 billion

02:46:18Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004059

to 58.091 billion.

02:46:20Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004060

AICS is intended to assist people

02:46:22Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004061

in genuine crisis, but the 2025

02:46:24Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004062

COA finding stated that

02:46:26Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004063

multiple and overlapping payments totaling

02:46:28Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004064

P397.4

02:46:30Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004065

million and weaknesses in

02:46:32Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004066

referral-based selection

02:46:34Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004067

and validation. This makes independent access

02:46:36Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004068

clear eligibility rules

02:46:38Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004069

and traceable distribution especially important.

02:46:41Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004070

Ang ano lang question is, how would

02:46:42Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004071

DSW ensure that AICS is a needs-based

02:46:44Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004072

government service rather

02:46:46Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004073

than a vehicle for political patronage,

02:46:49Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004074

particularly as the 2028

02:46:50Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004075

elections approach? Kasi ito yung mga

02:46:52Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004076

clear, no? Ng mga civil

02:46:54Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004077

society organizations and

02:46:56Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004078

watchdogs na parang

02:46:58Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004079

magiging, baka maging tool siya

02:47:00Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004080

for patronage.

02:47:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004081

Madam Chair, let me answer the first

02:47:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004082

part, yung COA report.

02:47:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004083

In that COA report, una ho,

02:47:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004084

let me just state categorically,

02:47:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004085

wala naman ho kaming disallowance.

02:47:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004086

In fact, sinabi sa amin, to make sure

02:47:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004087

that we validate. So the validation is

02:47:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004088

ongoing. Kasi ang argument namin doon, multiple

02:47:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004089

findings ho yun eh. Una, sabi nila may

02:47:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004090

double tipping. Ibig sabihin, nakatanggap

02:47:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004091

ng ACAP that time, pero

02:47:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004092

nakakuha ng AICS. Pero pinaliliwanag namin

02:47:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004093

sa guidelines, as long as it's not the same

02:47:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004094

item. For instance, nagkasakit.

02:47:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004095

So pinigyan natin ang medical.

02:47:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004096

E namatayan ho. So we give them burial

02:47:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004097

naman. As long as it's not the same

02:47:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004098

item that they availed of, then that should be

02:47:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004099

allowed in our guidelines. Pangalawain,

02:47:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004100

sabi nila, in excess.

02:47:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004101

Ang answer

02:47:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004102

response namin sa COA doon is,

02:47:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004103

as long as they don't reach the maximum

02:47:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004104

10,000. So meaning,

02:47:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004105

if they got 2,000 first, tapos

02:47:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004106

bumalik sila, the social

02:47:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004107

worker decides to give another 2,000,

02:47:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004108

as long as they don't reach.

02:47:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004109

And within the three months.

02:48:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004110

Now, what happened in this finding

02:48:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004111

in particular is, because COA said,

02:48:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004112

okay, we take cognizance of your answer.

02:48:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004113

As we speak right now, nagba-validate

02:48:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004114

kami, pina-validate ulit sa amin

02:48:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004115

to complete the data set.

02:48:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004116

Kasi hinahanap yung mga social case

02:48:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004117

intake ng mga individual na to.

02:48:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004118

And then COA is also doing their

02:48:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004119

parallel validation. It is

02:48:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004120

due to end both validation by

02:48:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004121

December. Kasi nga, we're saying that this

02:48:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004122

amount is not

02:48:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004123

in excess. Hindi ho yan. Now, Madam,

02:48:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004124

Chair, I know that the civil society

02:48:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004125

and everybody's concerned about the politization

02:48:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004126

or the chance of politization of the department.

02:48:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004127

Ang lagi ko sinasagot doon,

02:48:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004128

anybody, I said this to COA

02:48:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004129

as well, can refer. We get referrals

02:48:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004130

from everybody. Pati ho sa radio stations

02:48:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004131

na public service announcement,

02:48:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004132

sa simbahan, public servants.

02:48:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004133

But at the end of the day, yung

02:48:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004134

social worker ho, does the intake ko?

02:48:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004135

Nobody can dictate on them kung qualified

02:48:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004136

or not qualified, at kung magkano

02:48:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004137

ang ibibigay.

02:48:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004138

Our social workers

02:48:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004139

are licensed professionals.

02:48:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004140

And with a lot of them getting regularized

02:49:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004141

pa, hopefully,

02:49:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004142

we know for a fact that they can withstand

02:49:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004143

yung mga pressures.

02:49:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004144

Unlike other departments,

02:49:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004145

I don't want to draw a parallelism,

02:49:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004146

pero unlike the other grants being

02:49:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004147

given by other departments, kami kasi may gatekeeper,

02:49:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004148

the social worker.

02:49:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004149

Unlike the other departments, wala silang gatekeeper.

02:49:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004150

I mean, sila ho yung nagdi-determine

02:49:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004151

qualified ba to, hindi qualified,

02:49:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004152

magkano ba ibibigay.

02:49:25Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004153

I'm sure

02:49:26Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004154

that since

02:49:28Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004155

AICS has been being

02:49:29Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004156

implemented for so many years, may mga safeguards

02:49:32Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004157

na tayo rito. And

02:49:34Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004158

considering that this is cash,

02:49:35Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004159

yun ang medyo, it's prone to

02:49:38Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004160

of course, temptation.

02:49:42Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004161

Siguro, quickly lang, ano po yung mga

02:49:44Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004162

safeguards to ensure that

02:49:45Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004163

it reaches

02:49:48Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004164

the target beneficiaries.

02:49:50Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004165

Na wala ng

02:49:52Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004166

kukurot,

02:49:54Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004167

ikanga, doon sa

02:49:56Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004168

dapat mapunta.

02:49:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004169

Madam Chair, we've had a lot of cases

02:50:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004170

na ang fraud or yung kumurot,

02:50:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004171

hindi naman ho empleyado.

02:50:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004172

Kung hindi, we have a very particular case

02:50:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004173

at Site 1, para mas konkreto,

02:50:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004174

in Iloilo, this is all over the news,

02:50:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

na sindikato

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004176

ng certain, hindi naman lahat, certain

02:50:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004177

barangay officials, hindi ko naman ho nila lahat.

02:50:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004178

So when the news got to us,

02:50:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004179

sinampahan talaga namin ang kaso ito mga to

02:50:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004180

prove a point. Pero nandun pa rin ho

02:50:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004181

sa massive information campaign. In the last

02:50:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004182

budget hearing, we cited number one,

02:50:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004183

during payouts, paulit-ulit ho talaga,

02:50:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004184

kailangan sabihin ng mga social worker namin na

02:50:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004185

inyo yan, huwag nyo ibigay

02:50:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004186

kahit kanino yan. Now, kung meron

02:50:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004187

isumbong nyo sa amin, there are anonymous

02:50:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004188

ways of doing it. We have a very

02:50:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004189

robust grievance mechanism in the department,

02:50:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004190

even for four piece.

02:50:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004191

Naka-skill rin sa mga

02:50:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004192

payout centers namin, yung mga rules,

02:50:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004193

halimbawa, magkano ang matatanggap mo,

02:50:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004194

inyo ba yan, even in their

02:50:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004195

local dialect. Kasi sometimes the lack

02:50:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004196

of information makes them think na pwedeng

02:50:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004197

kaltasan sila ng ibang tao.

02:50:56Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004198

Also, yung increase

02:50:58Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004199

sa HGAB, is that

02:50:59Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004200

the agency

02:51:02Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004201

or the agency recommendation

02:51:04Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004202

o galing lang sa house yun?

02:51:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004203

Madam Chair, we recommended

02:51:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004204

pero kulang pangaho.

02:51:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004205

What was the target?

02:51:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004206

The target was sana mabalik lang ho kami

02:51:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004207

sa 63.9 billion.

02:51:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004208

Same as the last time.

02:51:19Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004209

But probably because of the

02:51:20Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004210

really tight, very

02:51:22Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004211

very tight fiscal

02:51:24Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004212

space, all the departments really

02:51:26Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004213

suffered cuts. Kaya I'm

02:51:29Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004214

quite particular.

02:51:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004215

Madam Chair, kung pwede lang ako dumulog ulit.

02:51:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004216

Mr. Grants kasi ho, and as pointed out,

02:51:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004217

we're looking at the barrel of the gun

02:51:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004218

with El Nino,

02:51:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004219

with inflation,

02:51:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004220

and then yung regular pa namin na pumupunta

02:51:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004221

sa opisina.

02:51:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004222

This year has been quite challenging. Imagine nyo,

02:51:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004223

kami yung ginamit during the

02:51:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004224

RSSI payout na nangyayari pa rin ngayon.

02:51:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004225

Kami rin yung ginagamit

02:51:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004226

sa drought. Kami rin yung

02:51:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004227

humarap sa mga transport sector.

02:51:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004228

So, on top of that, meron pa kami

02:51:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004229

yung mga regular na tumudulog sa aming

02:52:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004230

mga tanggapan. So, I know

02:52:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004231

it's tight fiscal space, pero tulad nang sinabi ko

02:52:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004232

sa Kim, kung meron sanang last na

02:52:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004233

pwedeng bawasan ng konti, sana ho

02:52:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004234

kami yun.

02:52:10Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004235

Yung RSSI, Sek, no,

02:52:12Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004236

that's yung mga sugar

02:52:13Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004237

producing provinces,

02:52:18Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004238

it's still ongoing, no, tsaka wala pang

02:52:20Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004239

end in sight. So, how many,

02:52:22Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004240

just want to ask kasi, I came from

02:52:24Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004241

my mother is from Negros, ako rin ng

02:52:26Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004242

author ng Sugarcane Industry Development

02:52:28Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004243

Act. We're very much concerned

02:52:30Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004244

with itong sugar production.

02:52:33Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004245

So, mga ilan na ba yung

02:52:34Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004246

beneficiaries natin total?

02:52:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004247

Mr. Chair, Madam Chair, if you allow me

02:52:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004248

just one second, kasi it's a running,

02:52:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004249

ongoing pa rin yung payout. So, papakuha ko yung

02:52:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004250

pinaka-latest.

02:52:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004251

Yung RSSI.

02:52:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004252

Okay.

02:52:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004253

Meron ba kayo?

02:52:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004254

Hindi, hindi

02:52:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004255

Okay na.

02:52:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004256

Yung pinaka meron ka

02:54:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004259

1.4, no?

02:54:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004260

We've already allotted 1.4 billion, of which a greater chunk is going to Negros Occidental and Negros Oriental.

02:54:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004261

The balance went to Capiz.

02:54:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004262

And then we are also now looking at portions of Iloilo, Pasi City in particular.

02:54:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004263

And then may nagde-declare na rin sunod-sunod.

02:54:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004264

And the majority floor leader also called our attention to Pukidnon.

02:54:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004265

Kasi meron din silang sugar plantations doon.

02:54:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004266

But the 1.4, 1.1 to 1.2 of that went to Negros Oriental and Negros Occidental.

02:55:01Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004267

It was already asked by our Senate President earlier, ito sa El Nino natin, yung farmers and fisher folks.

02:55:10Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004268

So do you have any estimate na na projection, yung high and low of it for 2037?

02:55:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004269

We are yet to get the projection from the Department of Agriculture.

02:55:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004270

But what we can show you is in ongoing na po.

02:55:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004271

I'll flash you the map, yung El Nino map.

02:55:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004272

Yung kanina.

02:55:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004273

May 10.9 sa RSPSA.

02:55:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004274

...

02:55:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004275

Madam Chair, the RSPSA database is 10.9 farmers.

02:55:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004276

So we're looking at a portion of that.

02:55:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004277

As mentioned, siguro mga 80% of it.

02:55:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004278

But based on the El Nino heat map kasi by January,

02:55:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004279

by this March of next year,

02:55:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004280

pretty much the entire country na ang sakop.

02:55:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004281

So we're assuming that that's the entire number, 10.9.

02:56:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004282

Pero obviously, that's the maximum kasi may mga iba naman hopefully na hindi tatamaan.

02:56:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004283

But we can show you, Madam Chair, as I showed, this is the ongoing efforts already.

02:56:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004284

The provinces were operating lahat na sa eastern seaboard as projected.

02:56:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004285

Cagayan, Isabela, that's around 77,260.

02:56:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004286

Farmers, ongoing or paid out na yan.

02:56:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004287

And then Camarines Norte with 26,041.

02:56:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004288

Sila na yung naunay because they're in the eastern seaboard.

02:56:35Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004289

Parang hindi tayo naupusan ng crisis every year.

02:56:39Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004290

May RSSI, mayroon na naman ang El Nino.

02:56:41Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004291

So anyway, thank you, Secrex.

02:56:44Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004292

Madam Chair, that's all for now.

02:56:46Source

Senator Joseph Victor "JV" G. Ejercito

asr-004293

I'll just be here to monitor this.

02:56:49Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004294

Marami salamat, Chair.

02:56:50Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004295

Back to you, SP, for your second round.

02:56:54Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004296

It's all right po.

02:56:57Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004297

I'm also still waiting for Senator Bong Go.

02:57:00Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004298

And then sabi kanina ni Senator Ami, babalik siya.

02:57:03Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004299

So you may lead off for the second round.

02:57:05Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004300

I just have a few items lang, Madam Chairperson.

02:57:10Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004301

Balikan ko lang yung sinabi ng ating Chairman, Senator JV.

02:57:14Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004302

Itong panahon ng pagkilos, Philippine Community Resilience Project.

02:57:19Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004303

I understand that this is a foreign-assisted project.

02:57:24Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004304

It's a funded project.

02:57:25Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004305

And ang aim nito is to make communities resilient to poverty, disaster, and climate change.

02:57:35Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004306

And ongoing, I just want to ask, anong status nitong project?

02:57:41Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004307

At paano makaka-apekto itong pagbawas sa NEP ng 5.5 billion pesos?

02:57:54Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004308

So, kasi kung ongoing na siya, tapos mababawasan, mapuputol, sayang inumpisahan.

02:58:02Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004309

So we want to get an update on this foreign-assisted project.

02:58:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004310

Madam Chair, as mentioned, this is the successor program ng Kalahi na original that's been running for 20-25 years.

02:58:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004311

Nung 2024, nag-sunset na yung Kalahi.

02:58:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004312

Basically, ang programa nun.

02:58:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004313

And wala yan sa cities, wala yan sa first-class, second-class cities.

02:58:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004314

Normally, they're in the farthest, poorest provinces or municipalities that otherwise hindi mapapansin ng ga'a.

02:58:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004315

Kasi ang layo nila, nasa liblib na lugar.

02:58:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004316

Ang ginagawa ko dyan, the community identifies, parang bottom-up budgeting yan.

02:58:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004317

The community identifies the project that they need.

02:58:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004318

And then those sub-projects normally don't go beyond 20 million on a three-year scale.

02:58:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004319

Now,

02:58:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004320

sa mata ng mga benepisyaryo natin, tuloy-tuloy yung programa kasi nga walang intermission

02:58:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004321

dahil we applied for an extension through Panahon Pagkilos.

02:59:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004322

Same concept, community-driven development, community-procured, may counterparting na 20-30%.

02:59:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004323

Now, the biggest worry there is when World Bank approved the design,

02:59:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004324

I pre-identify na yung mga targets, how many LGUs ang makikinabang.

02:59:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004325

But the problem is, now that cut,

02:59:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004326

I'm sorry.

02:59:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004327

Ang tatamano dyan yung community grants nila.

02:59:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004328

Meaning, lesser sub-projects, itong mga pre-identified na targets, hindi hun lahat mabibigyan.

02:59:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004329

Now, the worry there is also, I don't think the development agency will like that

02:59:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004330

because when we did sign the commitment, meron na yung pre-identified mechanisms and the designs are already preset.

02:59:45Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004331

Ongoing na ito?

02:59:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004332

Ongoing na po. In fact, we're doing the first round this year.

02:59:50Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004333

Okay.

02:59:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004334

It's a five-year plan.

02:59:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004335

Until 2031.

02:59:55Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004336

Okay. And then, ang counterpart natin is 10 billion.

02:59:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004337

Is correct.

02:59:59Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004338

10 billion.

03:00:02Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004339

Dito sa original na P17 billion, nandito na yung counterpart.

03:00:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004340

Nandito na yung counterpart pero ang nabawasan po ay yung ODA side.

03:00:20Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004341

Ah, yung ODA side.

03:00:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004342

At the COP side.

03:00:23Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004343

Okay.

03:00:23Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004344

Okay.

03:00:24Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004345

Okay. Will it help? Ang mangyayari dito dahil nabawasan ng P5.4, beneficiary?

03:00:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004346

Liliit. Yes. And when we talk about beneficiaries, communities. LGUs.

03:00:40Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004347

And how many communities ang mababawasan with that P5.5 cut?

03:00:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004348

Madam Chair, hindi ho mababawasan yung physical target pero ang liliit ho yung matatanggap nila na grant.

03:01:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004349

So we'll have to proportionally apply the cut everywhere.

03:01:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004350

So halimbawa, ang na-initial na, kasi the whole concept there is they are pre-identified using the filters.

03:01:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004351

Meron ba diya ang mataas bang poverty incidents, stunting incident, meron bang presence ng indigenous people,

03:01:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004352

and susceptible ba kayo sa climate change or disasters.

03:01:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004353

So nung na-identify na sila,

03:01:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004354

we gathered the LGUs already and notified them of their allocations

03:01:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004355

and beneficiary na sila.

03:01:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004356

So they made their community planning already.

03:01:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004357

Now, babalikan namin sila at sasabihin namin sa kanila,

03:01:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004358

yung plinano nyo, if that was no more than 20 million, liliit ho yun.

03:01:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004359

So they'll have to scale down.

03:01:40Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004360

Pagkano makukuha nila? Originally it was 20 million.

03:01:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004361

No more than 20 million yan.

03:01:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004362

For sub-projects.

03:01:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004363

Yeah.

03:01:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004364

For every year kasi no more than 20 million ho yan.

03:01:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004365

These are micro-projects.

03:01:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004366

We're talking about pathways.

03:01:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004367

We're talking about pathways, bridges, yung pinakita ko kanina, yung water system.

03:01:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004368

So that's 20 to 20 million for the span of 3 years.

03:02:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004369

So mga 50 to 70 million for the span of 5 years.

03:02:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004370

3 years, sorry, 3 years.

03:02:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004371

So yun ang mababawasan ho.

03:02:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004372

Proportionately, we'll have to cut it.

03:02:12Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004373

Baka wala na silang matapos with that.

03:02:14Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004374

Siyempre, the smaller the project, the less the impact, di ba?

03:02:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004375

Madam Chair, that's the fear.

03:02:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004376

And more so, maliliit na nga siya kasi they're micro-infrastructure projects.

03:02:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004377

That otherwise, hindi mapapansin sa budgeting season because bottom-up budgeting to.

03:02:27Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004378

So this is the successor to Kalahis?

03:02:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004379

Yes.

03:02:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004380

Yes.

03:02:30Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004381

Okay.

03:02:31Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004382

Which is a successful project rin?

03:02:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004383

Yes.

03:02:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004384

Sa mga information na po.

03:02:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004385

We believe that it's successful.

03:02:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004386

Otherwise, the World Bank would not have given it or NEDA, DEPDEV would not have given it a go-signal for a successor program.

03:02:43Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004387

Alright.

03:02:46Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004388

We'll take note of that kasi nakita ko na-cut yung project na nasabi na ng ating chairman to kanina.

03:02:54Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004389

That's why we're also evaluating yung mga cuts and also additions, actually.

03:03:04Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004390

Actually, I don't have any more questions, Madam Chairperson.

03:03:08Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004391

Thank you.

03:03:08Source

Senator Sherwin "Win" T. Gatchalian

asr-004392

Thank you for that.

03:03:09Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004393

Salamat din po, SP.

03:03:11Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004394

It looks like we will be ending earlier than expected.

03:03:15Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004395

So, pwedeng kung bigyan ng oras yung ating mga CSO representatives, resource persons.

03:03:24Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004396

Nandito, if you'd like to take around two minutes each para i-raise yung major na mga follow-up questions nyo

03:03:32Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004397

at yung maaring maging subject na mga proposed amendments nyo patungo sa plenary.

03:03:38Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004398

So, sino pong gustong magsalita?

03:03:40Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004399

Ms. Gina, okay, para sa samahan ng nagkakaisang pamilya ng Pantawid.

03:03:47Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004400

Yeah, thank you, Madam Chair.

03:03:49Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004401

Sa lahat pong mga nandito, especially at the SWD.

03:03:53Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004402

Siyempre po.

03:03:54Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004403

So, ang major concern po ng samahan ng nagkakaisang pamilya ng Pantawid is the budget cut

03:03:58Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004404

na nangyari po sa ating programa ng 4P.

03:04:01Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004405

So, kami po ay may mga observation from 2022 up to the present.

03:04:07Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004406

Yung mga budget cut po ay talaga nagkakaroon ng implication sa program.

03:04:12Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004407

Of course, talaga kinakong-gratulate din naman namin si Secretary Rex dahil sa mga troubleshooting na ginawa niya

03:04:18Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004408

at hearing those enhancements from the program ay talaga pong nagpapasalamat kami sa ano,

03:04:23Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004409

nakikita nating direksyon ng pagpapabuti ng programa.

03:04:27Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004410

So, balit, meron po kaming hinihiling, Madam Chair, lalong-lalong po sa version ng Senate para po sa budget ng 2027.

03:04:36Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004411

So, nung rinisenta po ng ating butihing sekretary yung NEP 2027 doon sa House of Representatives,

03:04:44Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004412

medyo nagkaroon po kami ng agam-agam.

03:04:46Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004413

Dahil, siyempre, kami po ay nagkaroon ng pulong last October 7 sa PSA

03:04:51Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004414

kung saan?

03:04:52Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004415

Yung issue po tungkol doon sa mga nasa listahan po, ng listahan ng 3 patungo doon sa CBMS

03:04:59Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004416

ay ito po yung klinaro namin sa PSA.

03:05:02Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004417

Dahil marami po tayo, may mga bilang pa po tayo ng mga pantawid, supposed to be mga pantawid na hindi po napasama doon sa CBMS

03:05:10Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004418

at sila po ay lumalapit sa samahan para po ito ay idulog po sa ating DSWD or sa ating mga mambabatas.

03:05:20Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004419

May mga bilang po ito, Madam Chair.

03:05:22Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004420

At sila po ay nahingian na po ng mga requirements.

03:05:25Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004421

Dahil po ang mga mahihirap nating kababayan ang kumuha po ng tatlong birth certificate para lamang po makapasok sa programa

03:05:32Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004422

ay napakalaki pong halaga nito.

03:05:34Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004423

Pagkuhan ng marriage contract, pamasahe papunta po sa pagkuhan ng card, certification from school

03:05:39Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004424

ay ito po yung ina-address namin kung bakit mahalaga po sa amin na makita yung bilang ng mga na-archive nating mga kababayan.

03:05:47Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004425

At syempre, yung problema po ng inclusion-exclusion sa programa

03:05:52Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004426

po ito na matugunan sapagkat marami po talaga basis sa qualified naman sila sa RA 11310 ay hindi po sila napapabilang.

03:06:01Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004427

At meron po naman mga hindi naman na kwalifikado ay nasa programa po at nabanggit ito ni Secretary kanina.

03:06:07Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004428

So ito po yung aming mga inilabi sa iba't ibang ahensya na makakatulong po sa ating mga kababayang mahirap.

03:06:13Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004429

Tama po kanina si SB no po at nakakatuwa po na merami pong graduate na mga pantawid.

03:06:22Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004430

So ito po yung mga mga household mula po sa programa.

03:06:24Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004431

Subalit hindi po ito tumutukoy doon sa mga mga mga kababayan pa natin na mahihirap dahil galing na rin po sa PSA.

03:06:32Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004432

Meron pa po tayong mga kababayan na 3.2 million na mga mahihirap at meron po tayong mga waiting list na mga mahihirap din na supposed to be ay mapabilang po sa programa o makapaloob sa programa.

03:06:43Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004433

Kung nakikita po natin na ang four-piece program po ay isang instrumento na talaga pong nakakapag-alleviate sa ating mga kababayan.

03:06:52Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004434

So doon sa pag-aaral ng World Bank, 2.2 million household po ay nakapagpaangat sa ating mga kababayan mula sa kahirapan.

03:07:00Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004435

Nawa po ay marinig po ng ating mga senador, madam chair, senate president, ang aming pong pagdulog na panatilihin ang budget para po doon sa pagpapanatili ng 4.4 million na mga household na makapasok po sa ating pantawid program.

03:07:19Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004436

Sapagkat mahalaga po sa amin ang bilang.

03:07:22Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004437

Kukunti man ito pero ang tinitignan po natin ay yung mga kabataan na talaga pong ma-address yung kanilang pag-aaral.

03:07:30Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004438

At salamat sekretary, nakita namin doon sa inyo pong mga nabanggit kanina na yung tertiary education po ay talagang ito po yung major concern ng ating mga exiting mga pantawid beneficiary.

03:07:42Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004439

At sa paunti-unti po sana sa direction ng ating four-piece program sa mga susunod pong taon ay ito po talaga yung matugunan.

03:07:49Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004440

So marami po kami mga idinulog na mga recommendation tungkol po sa tertiary education at livelihood.

03:07:57Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004441

Ito po sana, itong mga convergence na tulong ng ating mga ahensya, nawa po pag-materialize po ito sa mga susunod na taon para po hindi na po talaga bumalik sa kahirapan yung mga nag-exit na ating mga kababayan.

03:08:10Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004442

So tama po, makagraduate lamang po ang isa sa ating mga monitored child sa program at makapag-kolehyo.

03:08:17Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004443

Malaking tulong po yan sa mga pamilya.

03:08:19Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004444

Sa kanila pong pamilya para po tuluyan po silang makagraduate sa pantawid.

03:08:24Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004445

At ito naman po ang ating dream para po sa mga susunod pong taon na marami pa pong four-piece na makagraduate na talaga pong nakuha natin yung objective ng program na sila po ay hindi na magpa-backslide at nakatawid po talaga sa kahirapan.

03:08:39Source

Jeana Catacio

asr-004446

Maraming salamat sa opportunity, Madam Chair.

03:08:42Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004447

Maraming salamat din po, Ms. Gina.

03:08:44Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004448

Secrex, gusto nyo bang pagunan initially yung mga idinulog na sa...

03:08:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004449

Madam Chair, si Jenna lagi yan sa office ko.

03:08:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004450

Suki yan.

03:08:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004451

And her group.

03:08:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004452

And they're very helpful in trying to tell me kung ano ho yung nangyayari sa ground.

03:08:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004453

Ang gusto ko lang ho una i-assure ang mga nakikinig na mga four-piece na yung pagbawa sa budget this year, hindi ho siya tulad, magiging epekto tulad noon na naghabol tayo.

03:09:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004454

Kung matatandaan nyo, di ba meron tayong pagtitipo na nung, I forgot that was 2025, na yung budget cut was severe, nag-worry talaga sila.

03:09:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004455

Pero ang gusto ko lang i-report naman na...

03:09:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004456

Nahabol ho yun.

03:09:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004457

Binigyan kami ng augmentation na ibalik yun.

03:09:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004458

Pero syempre yung pangamba, yun yung iniiwasan natin.

03:09:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004459

This year, yung budget cut ho, hindi naman ho [unclear] out of no rational.

03:09:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004460

Kundi dahil lumiit na ho yung catchment natin to 3.5 million households or families, ma-excess na ho siya.

03:09:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004461

So hindi ho naman ho makakompromise yung programa.

03:09:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004462

Yun ang ina-assure ko sa kanila.

03:09:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004463

Alam ko saan ang gagaling si Jenna dahil yung original na mga cut nangamba talaga sila.

03:09:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004464

But yung cut ngayon is brought about by data na 3.5 na lang kami.

03:09:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004465

So talagang niliitan.

03:09:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004466

Pero tulad rin ang napaliwanag ko kanina, hindi naman magkakaroon ng decline sa quality ng programa.

03:10:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004467

Bagamat marami pang enhancements.

03:10:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004468

Katulad nga yung ilo-launch natin ngayon this year na ESSI.

03:10:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004469

Alam nila yung ESSI, yun yung kune-kwento ko kanina.

03:10:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004470

Dati yung ESSI kasi marami ho siyang laman.

03:10:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004471

Pero ngayon, we just focused on the monitored children.

03:10:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004472

So this December, we're launching it.

03:10:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004473

Yun yung kune-kwento ko.

03:10:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004474

Tuloy.

03:10:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004475

Tuloy kolehyo, tuloy aral, tuloy trabaho.

03:10:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004476

Whether tech voc man yan or academic man yan, tutulungan natin yung kanila mga monitored children.

03:10:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004477

Yun ho ang assurance ko sa ating mga civil society, sa ating group na SNP.

03:10:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004478

Huwag kayong mag-worry na yung budget cut this time hindi arbitrary.

03:10:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004479

Kung hindi, this is driven by the data na lumiit ho tayo.

03:10:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004480

Walang magsasuffer sa services.

03:10:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004481

In fact,

03:10:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004482

na-regularize pa yung mga links natin.

03:10:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004483

Tapos, makailan lang, kahapon lang,

03:10:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004484

binigyan kami ng balita ng ating BBM na dadagdag pa yung mga SWA o Social Welfare Assistant.

03:10:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004485

So, from a ratio of 500, no?

03:11:01Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004486

1,000.

03:11:01Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004487

So, naging 1 is to 500.

03:11:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004488

Ngayon kasi yung Social Welfare Assistant, from 1 is to 1,000 families,

03:11:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004489

ngayon magiging 1 is to 500 na lang.

03:11:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004490

So, ibig sabihin talaga matututukan na mabuti yung case management

03:11:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004491

para talaga yung karapat dapat lang ang nasa programa

03:11:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004492

at yung mga pwede na natin pag-graduate.

03:11:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004493

Ay, pwede.

03:11:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004494

Pwede na natin pag-graduate.

03:11:20Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004495

Salamat, Secrex.

03:11:21Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004496

Siguro, moving forward, papunta sa plenary,

03:11:24Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004497

pwede pa natin i-stretch ng konti.

03:11:27Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004498

I remember nung briefings natin,

03:11:28Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004499

nabanggit nyo na may buffer din kayong pinag-iisipan.

03:11:31Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004500

So, baka doon natin pwedeng ma-work out yung

03:11:33Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004501

idinudulog pang balansin ng mga 900,000 families.

03:11:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004502

Madam Chairman, Jenna, we can sit down.

03:11:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004503

From 450,000, nababa na ho namin yan to 59,000.

03:11:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004504

Nahanap na namin yung mga iba.

03:11:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004505

Ang pamamaraan ho niyan is,

03:11:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004506

from 434,000, naging 59,000 na lang

03:11:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004507

and tatapusin ho namin i-locate sila with PSA within the year

03:11:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004508

or in fact, within the next 45 days.

03:12:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004509

Ang naging sistema ho kasi, kung wala sila sa CBMS,

03:12:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004510

ginawa namin yung mga names na nasa listahanan,

03:12:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004511

pati na rin yung mga on-demand,

03:12:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004512

yung mga galing sa mga LGU na mahihirap,

03:12:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004513

kasi wala sila sa CBMS eh.

03:12:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004514

Tapos, vinalidate na lang parehas namin ng PSA.

03:12:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004515

Kasi,

03:12:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004516

we have to remember,

03:12:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004517

the law of 4Ps is clearly defined as a targeting tool

03:12:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004518

na hindi kami pwede mag-enroll kung wala sila doon sa most current targeting tool.

03:12:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004519

So, pumayak naman yung PSA na,

03:12:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004520

kumbaga, it's an addendum to the CBMS na on-demand.

03:12:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004521

Hinanap namin itong 434,069

03:12:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004522

nahanap na namin yung iba sa kanila,

03:12:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004523

kaya nga pumapaan na to 59,000

03:12:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004524

at patuloy nating hahanapin.

03:12:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004525

Bottom line, we will leave no family unfound.

03:12:47Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004526

Great.

03:12:48Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004527

I second that motion.

03:12:52Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004528

Bago magsalita pa yung ibang CSOs,

03:12:55Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004529

kung gustong magsalita,

03:12:57Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004530

i-recognize muna ng chair,

03:12:59Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004531

Senator Aimee, for your second round.

03:13:02Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004532

Ay, pasensya.

03:13:03Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004533

Kasi nandun kami sa agriculture, katatapos lang po.

03:13:05Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004534

So, the 2027 budget allocates an amount of 900 million to Tarabasa,

03:13:12Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004535

while the DPED is also implementing a very similar program called Aral Program.

03:13:17Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004536

Aral Program.

03:13:17Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004537

Under RA 12028, yung academic recovery,

03:13:23Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004538

how does one differ from the other?

03:13:26Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004539

Are there different benchmarks?

03:13:28Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004540

Is there a duplication of activities?

03:13:30Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004541

Kasi parang yun ang intindi ng lahat tungkol sa coverage,

03:13:33Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004542

target beneficiaries, performance indicators.

03:13:37Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004543

At nagko-coordinate ba kayo ng DPED?

03:13:40Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004544

Kasi parang sapaw-sapaw naman yung dalawang programa.

03:13:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004545

Sir, this is under a memorandum of agreement with DPED.

03:13:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004546

Ang,

03:13:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004547

nangyari ho dito,

03:13:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004548

DPED is the one that makes the target list na mga batang tuturuan.

03:13:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004549

They're normally grade 2 lang.

03:13:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004550

Pero ang paradigm ho kasi namin dito,

03:13:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004551

grade 2 lang ho yung tinuturuan ng mga para-tutors namin.

03:13:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004552

Now, ang paradigm ho kasi namin dito is to try to reformat social welfare.

03:14:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004553

Noon kasi in educ assistance, bibigay mo lang, tapos na.

03:14:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004554

Pero ngayon, kinonvert natin na pag gusto mo,

03:14:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004555

halimbawa, meron ho tayong college student na nahihirapan makapagbayad ng matrikula,

03:14:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004556

kesa ibigay na lang natin outright yung cash.

03:14:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004557

They earn it through a cash-for-work program.

03:14:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004558

So, the tarapasa is not, our lente doon, our lens is not literacy,

03:14:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004559

but rather how to help our poor college students graduate out,

03:14:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004560

but they earn their keep.

03:14:30Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004561

Teka, I'm a bit confused.

03:14:31Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004562

So, the teacher is the college student

03:14:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004563

Correct.

03:14:34Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004564

who needs additional income,

03:14:36Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004565

and the student is the grade 2?

03:14:40Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004566

Tama ba?

03:14:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004567

Correct, madam. Madam Chair, that is correct.

03:14:43Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004568

At yung pumipili ng grade 2 ay yung DPED.

03:14:46Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004569

Pero, yung pumipili ng college student, sino?

03:14:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004570

We get them from the suks and the luks.

03:14:52Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004571

I see. I see.

03:14:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004572

So, yung peho namin doon is the cash-for-work

03:14:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004573

para dahan-dahan ma-reformat natin na conditional na ho sana

03:15:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004574

sana ang tulong natin.

03:15:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004575

Lalong na na,

03:15:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004576

these college students

03:15:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004577

can learn na

03:15:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004578

ang social welfare

03:15:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004579

can be conditional also.

03:15:06Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004580

I see.

03:15:06Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004581

So, in the meantime,

03:15:09Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004582

yung DepEd na aral,

03:15:11Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004583

paano naman yun?

03:15:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004584

It's complementary to each other.

03:15:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004585

In fact, Madam Chair,

03:15:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004586

sila nag-identify...

03:15:15Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004587

So, yung aral,

03:15:16Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004588

yung grade 2 yun?

03:15:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004589

No, ma'am, yung aral...

03:15:19Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004590

Saan napupunta yung perang

03:15:22Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004591

900 million,

03:15:23Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004592

halos 1 billion?

03:15:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004593

Yeah.

03:15:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004594

That becomes the wages

03:15:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004595

of the cash for work

03:15:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004596

ng mga tutors.

03:15:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004597

Yung mga tutors natin...

03:15:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004598

Yes, the college students.

03:15:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004599

And then,

03:15:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004600

itong mga grade 2 beneficiaries

03:15:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004601

and their parents

03:15:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004602

are identified by DepEd

03:15:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004603

para hindi na hunila...

03:15:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004604

Ito talaga yung mga non-readers

03:15:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004605

at frustrated readers

03:15:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004606

and chances are

03:15:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004607

hindi na nila pinapasok

03:15:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004608

sa aral yun

03:15:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004609

or talagang kailangan ng dalawa,

03:15:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004610

aral and tarabasa.

03:15:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004611

Number two,

03:15:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004612

our tarabasa...

03:15:53Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004613

Yung aral,

03:15:55Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004614

sino nagtuturo sa aral?

03:15:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004615

Sir, aral is a DepEd program

03:15:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004616

so I think...

03:16:00Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004617

I understand.

03:16:00Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004618

But who teaches?

03:16:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004619

I believe the teachers also teach.

03:16:03Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004620

Are they proper teachers?

03:16:05Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004621

Or are they para tutors?

03:16:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004622

From my recollection

03:16:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004623

when I was in Congress,

03:16:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004624

iba-iba ho.

03:16:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004625

May para tutor,

03:16:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004626

merong teachers,

03:16:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004627

para teachers,

03:16:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004628

pero kami ho,

03:16:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004629

college students lang.

03:16:15Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004630

Kasi kailangan namin ma-entend

03:16:17Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004631

kasi pag binasa mo,

03:16:19Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004632

halos pareho sila

03:16:20Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004633

at nagtatanong kami,

03:16:22Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004634

what's the coordination

03:16:23Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004635

and monitoring?

03:16:24Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004636

And furthermore,

03:16:25Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004637

finally,

03:16:26Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004638

since they're mentors,

03:16:27Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004639

to complement each other,

03:16:28Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004640

what's the evaluation

03:16:29Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004641

on all that?

03:16:30Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004642

Are the funds being used

03:16:31Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004643

efficiently

03:16:32Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004644

or dagdo doble-doble na?

03:16:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004645

Madam,

03:16:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004646

from my understanding,

03:16:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004647

wala naman hong compensation

03:16:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004648

sa aral dil.

03:16:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004649

It's pure volunteerism.

03:16:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004650

Well, sa amin,

03:16:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004651

we identified the poorest

03:16:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004652

students in college

03:16:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004653

so that kesa ibigay yung

03:16:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004654

cash outright,

03:16:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004655

tinagtatrabahuan nila.

03:16:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004656

Number two, ma'am.

03:16:47Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004657

Secrex,

03:16:48Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004658

before you continue

03:16:49Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004659

with the number two,

03:16:49Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004660

nag-quick research lang ako.

03:16:51Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004661

Apparently, Sen,

03:16:52Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004662

ay need dun sa aral

03:16:53Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004663

program ng DepEd.

03:16:54Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004664

Ang mga tutors

03:16:55Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004665

ay DepEd teachers

03:16:57Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004666

receiving teaching

03:16:59Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004667

overload pay

03:16:59Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004668

or service credits

03:17:00Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004669

plus mga let eligible

03:17:03Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004670

applicants,

03:17:04Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004671

pre-service teachers

03:17:06Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004672

and tama,

03:17:06Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-004673

para teachers.

03:17:07Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004674

Mga teachers, Sen.

03:17:08Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004675

Mga para teachers.

03:17:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004676

Well, sa Tarabasa,

03:17:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004677

it's just students talaga.

03:17:12Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004678

Ah?

03:17:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004679

Sa Tarabasa,

03:17:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004680

students lang ho.

03:17:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004681

Poor to college students.

03:17:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004682

Yun lang ang nagsututor.

03:17:18Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004683

Yung sa inyo?

03:17:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004684

Opo.

03:17:20Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004685

Hindi sila teachers?

03:17:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004686

Hindi po.

03:17:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004687

They're college students.

03:17:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004688

That's why grade two lang ho

03:17:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004689

kasi sabi nga ng DepEd,

03:17:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004690

baka yung proficiency,

03:17:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004691

mas kaya naman

03:17:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004692

ng college student,

03:17:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004693

turuan lang magbasa

03:17:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004694

ang grade two.

03:17:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004695

Beyond that,

03:17:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004696

it will require special skills

03:17:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004697

na maaring wala pa

03:17:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004698

yung students namin.

03:17:35Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004699

Do you have any

03:17:35Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004700

time-bound measures

03:17:37Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004701

on this experiment?

03:17:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004702

Yeah, Madam Chair,

03:17:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004703

number one,

03:17:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004704

I just...

03:17:41Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004705

How do you assess

03:17:42Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004706

the program's effectiveness?

03:17:43Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004707

Marami bang naturuan?

03:17:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004708

Yes.

03:17:45Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004709

Kasi billion din yan.

03:17:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004710

Yeah.

03:17:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004711

Madam Chair,

03:17:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004712

two things.

03:17:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004713

Ang gumagawa ho

03:17:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004714

ng assessment DepEd,

03:17:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004715

they're the ones

03:17:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004716

who also give us the results

Doon namin siya pinaturn.

03:18:03Source

03:18:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

03:18:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004741

Generally,

03:18:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004742

a good majority,

03:18:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004743

almost 85 to 89 percent

03:18:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004744

of beneficiaries

03:18:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004745

move a notch higher

03:18:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004746

from non-reporting,

03:18:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004747

from non-reader

03:18:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004748

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004751

So agree.

03:18:31Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004752

Don't mistake me.

03:18:32Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004753

I'm a real proponent

03:18:34Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004754

for informal schooling

03:18:37Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004755

and para-tutors.

03:18:38Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004756

I'm a real proponent for that.

03:18:40Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004757

But it's also important

03:18:42Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004758

that we measure

03:18:44Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004759

in a time-bound manner

03:18:46Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004760

their accomplishment

03:18:47Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004761

kasi parang walang katapusan

03:18:48Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004762

at baka yung 20 days,

03:18:50Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004763

baka mag-lapse,

03:18:51Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004764

baka 60 days after,

03:18:53Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004765

iba na naman.

03:18:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004766

I'm sure it's only ran

03:18:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004767

once a year

03:18:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004768

every single day.

03:18:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004769

Parang summer job

03:18:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004770

ng mga bata.

03:19:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004771

Parang SPES.

03:19:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004772

Parang SPES, yes.

03:19:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004773

So ang nangyayari,

03:19:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004774

after 20 days,

03:19:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004775

wala na kaming pondo nun

03:19:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004776

kasi tapos na siya.

03:19:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004777

So next year na ho

03:19:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004778

tayo magkikita ulit.

03:19:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004779

Now, the target beneficiaries

03:19:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004780

na bata are grade 2

03:19:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004781

kasi iba na naman ulit

03:19:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004782

yung next year

03:19:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004783

that they will give us.

03:19:15Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004784

I see, I see.

03:19:16Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004789

October 14.

03:19:25Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004790

Hindi ko alam

03:19:26Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004791

kung nasarapan kayo

03:19:27Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004792

kasi parang napaganong

03:19:28Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004793

kayo nung minsan.

03:19:30Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004794

Pero,

03:19:31Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004795

yung DSWD,

03:19:32Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004796

may plano ba

03:19:33Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004797

i-deploy

03:19:34Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004798

itong technology

03:19:35Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004799

sa iba't-ibang komunidad

03:19:36Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004800

that face

03:19:37Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004801

water shortages already?

03:19:39Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004802

And has the system

03:19:40Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004803

been in fact

03:19:41Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004804

tested and certified

03:19:42Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004805

by the health authorities

03:19:43Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004806

to make certain

03:19:45Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004807

that it's safe

03:19:46Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004808

and clean

03:19:46Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004809

for Filipinos

03:19:48Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004810

to consume?

03:19:50Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004811

I mean, aside from

03:19:50Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004812

the Secretary of DSWD

03:19:52Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004813

who put his life

03:19:53Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004814

at risk for all of us.

03:19:55Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004815

What's the plan?

03:19:56Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004816

How many people

03:19:56Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004817

are going to be

03:19:56Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004818

how many units

03:19:57Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004819

will be distributed?

03:19:58Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004820

Which communities

03:19:59Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004821

will be prioritized?

03:20:01Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004822

And what exactly

03:20:02Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004823

is the scientific basis

03:20:03Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004824

for this system?

03:20:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004825

Madam Chair,

03:20:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004826

if I only knew,

03:20:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004827

I would have brought one

03:20:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004828

and serve water

03:20:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004829

to everybody today.

03:20:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004830

Sayang.

03:20:11Source

asr-004831

Sa plenary,

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

03:20:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004833

Madam Chair,

03:20:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004834

una po,

03:20:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004835

the technology is not new.

03:20:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004836

It's by,

03:20:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004837

this particular product

03:20:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004838

was procured

03:20:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004839

by the department

03:20:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004840

since I joined it.

03:20:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004841

Actually,

03:20:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004842

since 2023,

03:20:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004843

nasa budega na po

03:20:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004844

03:20:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004845

We use it during disasters.

03:20:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004846

Now, these pictures

03:20:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004847

were done in Batanes.

03:20:30Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004848

Tablets that you give away.

03:20:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004849

No, ma'am,

03:20:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004850

chlorine-based ko kasi yun.

03:20:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004851

Ito, filter-based lang ho to.

03:20:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004852

Membrane lang.

03:20:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004853

Madam Chair,

03:20:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004854

it's by a group.

03:20:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004855

Itong winning procurement

03:20:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004856

namin na nasa budega ngayon.

03:20:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004857

But obviously,

03:20:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004858

we'll have to undergo

03:20:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004859

another set of procurement.

03:20:43Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004860

Chlorine-based na pinamimigay dati.

03:20:45Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004861

Nagla-lapse din yun eh.

03:20:46Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004862

Nag-expire eh.

03:20:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004863

Madam Chair,

03:20:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004864

this is by a group

03:20:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004865

called Waves for Water.

03:20:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004866

Waves for Water

03:20:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004867

has been in the

03:20:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004868

worldwide sphere

03:20:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004869

for clean water.

03:20:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004870

Not just for disaster,

03:20:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004871

pati sa wash.

03:20:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004872

They operate in 44 countries.

03:20:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004873

They've done 3.7 million people.

03:21:00Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004874

No, I met them in

03:21:02Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004875

Typhoon Yolanda.

03:21:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004876

Correct.

03:21:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004877

They're all over

03:21:05Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004878

and they help with spring water.

03:21:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004879

In fact,

03:21:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004880

Madam Chair,

03:21:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004881

matagal na ito

03:21:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004882

nasa budega natin.

03:21:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004883

Hindi ho siya bago.

03:21:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004884

But we use it only for disasters.

03:21:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004885

Now, given that this is a disaster,

03:21:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004886

we plan to deploy it

03:21:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004887

in communities.

03:21:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004888

But not just

03:21:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004889

yung nakita nyo maliit.

03:21:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004890

The real sense of that

03:21:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004891

is meron silang malalaking community.

03:21:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004892

We can show you the picture.

03:21:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004893

Community,

03:21:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004894

water depots.

03:21:27Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004895

Pero inevitably,

03:21:28Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004896

there isn't enough, right?

03:21:29Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004897

So, sinong uunahin?

03:21:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004898

Ma'am,

03:21:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004899

ito ho yung community water depot.

03:21:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004900

Malalaki ho siya.

03:21:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004901

So, rain catcher talaga yan.

03:21:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004902

I was trying to put context

03:21:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004903

to the statement

03:21:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004904

of nung bumili ng balde.

03:21:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004905

Now, obviously,

03:21:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004906

when you save water,

03:21:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004907

you also have to make sure

03:21:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004908

na may purpose siya

03:21:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004909

when you reuse it.

03:21:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004910

Alam naman, tubig lang ho siya doon.

03:21:47Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004911

I'm sure that right after

03:21:49Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004912

there was a statement

03:21:51Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004913

regarding the collection

03:21:52Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004914

of rainwater,

03:21:53Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004915

agad-agad may lumaba.

03:21:55Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004916

Mula sa CIC yata,

03:21:58Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004917

yung mga infectious disease

03:21:59Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004918

na sinabi

03:22:00Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004919

na huwag mag-ongolekta

03:22:02Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004920

ng tubig ulan

03:22:03Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004921

pagkat napakadami ng pollutant

03:22:05Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004922

may radioactive pa sa environment.

03:22:08Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-004923

Ano po mas...

03:22:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004924

Madam Chair,

03:22:09Source

03:22:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004932

way before

03:22:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004934

as a medical device.

03:22:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004938

It can remove bacteria,

03:22:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004939

not virus.

03:22:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-004940

Nadatnan ko na lang

03:27:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005210

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005212

03:27:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005213

Nahirapan sila

03:27:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005214

at that time

03:27:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005215

i-distribute.

03:27:38Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005216

Tutuot siya.

03:27:39Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005217

Pareho lang ng AICS yun.

03:27:40Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005218

Unconditional din.

03:27:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005219

Yes, pero yun

03:27:42Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005220

meron kasi silang

03:27:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005221

beneficiary cash cards

03:27:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005222

na hindi nila mahanap

03:27:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005223

yung mga beneficiary

03:27:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005224

or hindi kinukuha

03:27:50Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005225

yung cash card.

03:27:52Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005226

Kaya,

03:27:52Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005227

03:27:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

03:27:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005229

So,

03:27:55Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005230

out of the 617 million.

03:28:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005231

Madam,

03:28:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

03:28:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005233

03:28:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005234

600 million.

03:28:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005235

We wrote a demand letter

03:28:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005236

to land bank already.

03:28:12Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005237

Yes.

03:28:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005238

We told land bank

03:28:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

03:28:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005241

to treasury already.

03:28:18Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005242

And,

03:28:18Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005243

perhaps,

03:28:19Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005244

the last important item

03:28:21Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005245

in your core report,

03:28:22Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005246

which is really

03:28:22Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005247

very, very

03:28:23Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005248

confusing

03:28:24Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005249

meron

03:28:25Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005250

unutilized social pension funds

03:28:27Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005251

and delays in returning funds

03:28:29Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005252

nasa 20 million halos

03:28:31Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005253

for the qualified

03:28:33Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005254

indigent senior citizen.

03:28:36Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005255

Bakit may ganun?

03:28:37Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005256

Wala nang nang nababayaran eh.

03:28:39Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005257

Meron yung hindi nabibigyan.

03:28:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005258

Madam, sir,

03:28:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005259

let me look into that

03:28:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005260

because

03:28:42Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005261

fully obligated yung

03:28:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005262

social pension fund namin eh.

03:28:46Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005263

Unutilized social pension.

03:28:48Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005264

Nandito sa COA report

03:28:49Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005265

na nabigay sa amin eh.

03:28:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005266

Ma'am,

03:28:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005267

yeah.

03:28:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005268

Ma'am,

03:28:54Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005269

kasi alam ko,

03:28:55Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005270

kulang ang pera.

03:28:56Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005271

Bakit na delay?

03:28:57Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005272

Hindi daw nabigay.

03:28:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005273

Madam, sir,

03:28:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005274

madam, sir,

03:29:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005275

the good senator pointed out

03:29:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005276

na pag nagpe-payout ho,

03:29:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005277

minsan hindi talaga

03:29:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005278

dumadating na yung matanda.

03:29:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005279

So,

03:29:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005280

that's why may 20 million

03:29:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005281

na residual

03:29:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005282

compared to its total budget.

03:29:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005283

So, which means,

03:29:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005284

may system kami

03:29:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005285

in making sure na

03:29:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005286

balik kayo ulit,

03:29:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005287

balik kayo ulit.

03:29:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005288

We don't delist them

03:29:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005289

just like that

03:29:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005290

kasi baka naman

03:29:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005291

nagkasakit lang nung araw

03:29:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005292

nung payout.

03:29:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005293

So,

03:29:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005294

we give them

03:29:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005295

maraming chance

03:29:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005296

then pag wala na ho talaga,

03:29:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005297

it goes back to,

03:29:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005298

us to re-appropriate it

03:29:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005299

to other beneficiaries.

03:29:27Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005300

So, you're saying

03:29:28Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005301

that 20 million

03:29:29Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005302

was simply not collected?

03:29:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005303

Hindi ho nila ginawa.

03:29:31Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005304

For failure of the

03:29:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005305

beneficiary to show up?

03:29:34Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005306

For the beneficiaries

03:29:35Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005307

to turn up?

03:29:36Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005308

Correct.

03:29:36Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005309

Okay.

03:29:37Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005310

Sige.

03:29:38Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005311

So, yun,

03:29:38Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005312

yung mga COA audit reports,

03:29:40Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-005313

03:29:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005317

I'm sorry.

03:29:48Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005318

03:29:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005319

Our employees will never stop helping

03:34:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

03:34:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005491

during the transpo.

03:34:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005492

Kami ho nag-payout

03:34:57Source

03:34:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005497

03:35:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005498

because the poor,

03:35:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005499

the vulnerable,

03:35:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005500

the marginalized,

03:35:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005501

hindi naman ho nila

03:35:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005502

kaya piliin

03:35:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005503

kung aling department

03:35:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005504

03:35:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005505

It's a whole of government approach.

03:35:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005506

So we can

03:35:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005507

and we will.

03:35:13Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-005508

Either mode,

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-005509

Senator Risa Hontiveros

03:35:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005514

Madam Chair,

03:35:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005515

03:35:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005516

the biggest footprint

03:35:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005517

03:35:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005518

Kami ang may pinakamalabas

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005522

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-005523

03:35:31Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005662

attached sa DSWD

03:38:10Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005663

na binawasan

03:38:12Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005664

halimbawa ang

03:38:12Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005665

Council for the Welfare of Children,

03:38:14Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005666

kami sangayon

03:38:21Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005670

dahil it weakens

03:38:22Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005671

the institutions

03:38:23Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005672

responsible for

03:38:25Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005673

child rights

03:38:26Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005679

and social development.

03:38:32Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005680

Although assistance

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005682

03:38:37Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005684

at ilang beses na pong inulit-ulit

03:38:39Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005685

Dr. Liza Martinez

na hinihingi naman

03:38:46Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005691

ng ating kalihim.

03:38:48Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005692

Sa tingin po namin,

03:38:49Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

although assistance

03:38:50Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005694

03:38:51Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005695

in crisis

03:38:51Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005696

is essential,

03:38:53Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005697

an increase of this scale

03:38:55Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005698

demands careful scrutiny,

03:38:58Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005699

heavy reliance

03:38:59Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005700

on discretionary subsidies,

03:39:00Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005701

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005703

hindi lang ngayong hapon,

03:39:04Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005704

may reinforced short-term

03:39:05Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005705

patronage-prone politics

03:39:07Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005706

on the provision

03:39:08Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005707

of social assistance

03:39:09Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005708

rather than build

03:39:11Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005709

predictable rights-based

03:39:13Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005710

social protection.

03:39:15Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005711

So ang hiling po

03:39:16Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005712

ng Social Watch,

03:39:17Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005713

03:39:38Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005730

Para naman sa AICS,

03:39:41Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005731

the request is to publish

03:39:53Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005737

and measurable outcomes.

03:39:55Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005738

Emergency assistance

03:39:56Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005739

must not crowd out

03:39:58Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005740

sustained investment

03:39:59Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005741

in prevention,

of DSWD-attached

03:40:07Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005747

and supervised agencies.

03:40:11Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005748

A credible DSWD budget

03:40:13Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005749

must do more,

03:40:15Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005750

much more

03:40:15Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005751

than provide relief

03:40:17Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005752

after harm

03:40:18Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005753

or hardship occurs.

03:40:20Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005754

It must be

03:40:21Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005755

must strengthen

03:40:21Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005756

the systems,

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005758

frontline workers,

asr-005764

and well-being,

03:40:31Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005765

particularly of

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005766

two sectors

03:40:33Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005767

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005774

is asking

03:40:43Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005775

for the child protection cluster.

03:40:47Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005776

And we've already submitted

03:40:48Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005777

for the slides.

03:40:49Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005778

I don't have the time

03:40:50Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005779

to go through all of them.

03:40:51Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005780

But there is also

03:40:53Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005781

a position paper

03:40:54Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005782

or a statement.

03:40:56Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005783

A targeted

03:40:57Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005784

28,563,800

03:41:00Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005785

investment

03:41:01Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005786

in child protection

03:41:02Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005787

under the DSWD budget

03:41:04Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005788

is being proposed.

03:41:07Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005789

And this is

03:41:07Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005790

the costing is based

03:41:09Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005791

on

03:41:09Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005792

the costed implementation plan

03:41:12Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005793

of the Philippine Strategic Plan

03:41:14Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005794

against the online sexual abuse

03:41:16Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005795

or exploitation of children

03:41:18Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005796

or the osaic

03:41:19Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005797

and the child sexual abuse

03:41:21Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005798

or exploitation materials

03:41:23Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005799

the CISA-SM

03:41:25Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005800

2025 to 2028.

03:41:27Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005801

The top two items there

03:41:29Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005802

are the basic course

03:41:31Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005803

on anti-osaic

03:41:33Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005804

and also the assessment

03:41:34Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005805

on survivors' outcome training.

03:41:37Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005806

So persons with disabilities cluster,

03:41:40Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005807

the Social Watch

03:41:41Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005808

is pushing for

03:41:42Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005809

the proposed

03:41:44Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005810

disability support allowance.

03:41:47Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005811

And this covers

03:41:48Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005812

disability-related experiences

03:41:51Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005813

such as

03:41:52Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005814

ongoing medical treatment

03:41:53Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005815

and medication,

03:41:55Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005816

hygiene and incontinence supply,

03:41:57Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005817

specialized transportation,

03:41:58Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005818

and several other things.

03:42:00Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005819

The program

03:42:01Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005820

is proposed to cover

03:42:02Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005821

345,000 beneficiaries

03:42:04Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005822

identified as Filipinos

03:42:06Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005823

with severe

03:42:08Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005824

functioning difficulties.

03:42:10Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005825

In fact,

03:42:11Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005826

the demographic

03:42:13Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005827

mentioned here

03:42:15Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005828

is based on the 2020 census

03:42:17Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005829

and as has already been mentioned,

03:42:19Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005830

the CBMS,

03:42:21Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005831

actually has doubled

03:42:22Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005832

that amount

03:42:23Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005833

for persons with severe disabilities

03:42:25Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005834

only from ages 5 to 19.

03:42:29Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005835

These are children and youth.

03:42:30Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005836

It's doubled.

03:42:31Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005837

This is only half.

03:42:33Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005838

It's proposing to give

03:42:35Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005839

a disability support allowance

03:42:37Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005840

of 2,000 pesos per month

03:42:39Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005841

for Filipinos

03:42:41Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005842

with severe functioning disabilities,

03:42:43Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005843

difficulties, I'm sorry.

03:42:45Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005844

And this amounts to

03:42:46Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005845

690 million monthly

03:42:49Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005846

and 8

03:42:51Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005847

plus billion annually

03:42:52Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005848

for the allowance.

03:42:56Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005849

Taken together,

03:42:58Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005850

the proposals for child protection

03:43:00Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005851

and persons with disabilities

03:43:01Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005852

would move the DSWD budget

03:43:03Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005853

toward prevention,

03:43:05Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005854

survivor-centered recovery

03:43:07Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005855

and reintegration,

03:43:08Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005856

disability visibility

03:43:09Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005857

and inclusion,

03:43:11Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005858

stronger professional capacity

03:43:13Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005859

and accountable service delivery.

03:43:16Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005860

Social Watch respectfully calls

03:43:18Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005861

on Senator Ontiveros

03:43:19Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005862

and the appropriate subcommittee

03:43:21Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005863

chairs to champion

03:43:22Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005864

these proposals

03:43:23Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005865

and sponsor the corresponding

03:43:25Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005866

amendments during the period

03:43:26Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005867

of amendments.

03:43:28Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005868

My second minute.

03:43:30Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005869

I would like just to mention,

03:43:31Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-005870

sorry.

03:43:32Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-005871

More than one minute.

03:43:33Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-005872

Please proceed and wind up.

03:43:35Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005873

Just a very specific example

03:43:38Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005874

to bring it down to the ground.

03:43:40Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005875

And this is a specific example

03:43:42Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005876

on the deaf community.

03:43:44Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005877

It is probably the only constituency

03:43:46Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005878

in the entire sector

03:43:48Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005879

of persons with disabilities

03:43:49Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005880

which has its own law.

03:43:51Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005881

Because the identity

03:43:52Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005882

of deaf people

03:43:53Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005883

is not just dependent

03:43:54Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005884

on being a person

03:43:55Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005885

with a disability

03:43:56Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005886

but because they have

03:43:57Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005887

their own language

03:43:58Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005888

and culture.

03:44:00Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-005889

So this is under...

03:44:00Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-005890

There are also separate laws

03:44:02Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-005891

for persons with autism.

03:44:03Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-005892

Recently, I've already

03:44:04Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-005893

mentioned it.

03:44:04Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005894

Yes, I'm sorry.

03:44:05Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005895

It's okay.

03:44:06Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005896

And also for the others,

03:44:07Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005897

I was going to mention that

03:44:09Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005898

we also have the laws

03:44:11Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005899

which recognize persons

03:44:12Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005900

with rare diseases,

03:44:14Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005901

the mental health law,

03:44:15Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005902

the national cancer control law

03:44:17Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005903

which all recognizes

03:44:18Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005904

these persons with disabilities.

03:44:21Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005905

These constituencies

03:44:23Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005906

as persons with disabilities.

03:44:25Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005907

But we have specific questions

03:44:27Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005908

because we have many good policies

03:44:29Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005909

which unfortunately

03:44:30Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005910

remain on paper.

03:44:32Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005911

For instance,

03:44:32Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005912

the 1992 RA 7277

03:44:36Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005913

has a section on

03:44:37Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005914

auxiliary social services

03:44:39Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005915

which includes

03:44:40Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005916

the provision of

03:44:41Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005917

qualified sign language interpreters

03:44:43Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005918

as part of that.

03:44:45Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005919

And that has remained

03:44:46Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005920

unimplemented since 1992.

03:44:49Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005921

The DSWD,

03:44:51Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005922

actually issued

03:44:51Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005923

an administrative order

03:44:52Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005924

in 2003-059

03:44:54Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005925

for the guidelines

03:44:55Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005926

for the implementation

03:44:57Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005927

of the auxiliary social services

03:44:59Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005928

in coordination...

03:45:00Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005929

A more recent one is because of the previous 1% earmarked spending of all agencies during the second decade of persons with disabilities lapsed from 2003 to 2012.

03:45:17Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005930

So the general provision in the GAA annually has remained but with no more earmarking.

03:45:22Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005931

So it's just requiring agencies to have programs and activities for persons with disabilities and older persons.

03:45:31Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005932

In fact, there is a Joint Circular DBM-DSWD-NCDA-NCSC Joint Circular No. 1 Series of 2023 on the MEAL, the MEAL, Monitoring and Evaluation of Accountability for Learning.

03:45:49Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005933

For and learning from the implementation of Section 12.

03:45:52Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005934

So there has been a general provision 36. It was 37 in the succeeding years. It's been still in 2026.

03:46:08Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005935

And this is, and we requested actually this week, we asked the DSWD to send us some of the annual, the reports because of this Joint Circular.

03:46:21Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005936

And we were surprised.

03:46:22Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005937

We were surprised to receive tables showing shelters, facilities, and rehabilitation programs.

03:46:29Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005938

And so we were wondering, we weren't quite sure what was in their minds in looking at all of the, what was mandated in the general provision.

03:46:40Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005939

In the budget hearing last Monday, and I think Senator, the Honorable Senator Erwin Tufo mentioned this, our DSWD Secretary mentioned in relation to this,

03:46:50Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005940

we raised the,

03:46:52Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005941

the implemented sections of the Magna Carta.

03:46:57Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005942

And regarding particularly the auxiliary social services,

03:47:01Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005943

and our good Secretary mentioned that they have already proposed indicators for the SGLC to compel LGUs to comply.

03:47:12Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005944

And that has to do with my last point later on.

03:47:16Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005945

And also our...

03:47:18Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-005946

I thought your last point was now.

03:47:20Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005947

Okay.

03:47:20Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005948

Okay.

03:47:22Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005949

N-C-D-A-E-D, Ms. Relova, and because we were asking even in the budget hearings of the House regarding Filipino Sign Language interpreters,

03:47:35Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005950

and they mentioned an upcoming or ongoing DSWD Academy training allotted for 1 million four times a year, 45 trainees, and that you already have 80 interpreters on your roster.

03:47:47Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005951

However, on the ground, we have received cases of rape victims.

03:47:52Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005952

And they're usually women and girls who are unschooled and therefore much more vulnerable who have been advised by the social workers to learn sign language first on their own so that they could have the communication skills.

03:48:05Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005953

Essentially, we feel this is highly discriminatory.

03:48:08Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005954

And especially so since the Supreme Court has already issued a rule on interpreting, specifically institutionalizing deaf-rely interpreters for unschooled deaf people.

03:48:21Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005955

So,

03:48:22Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005956

they may not sign in the standard language, but they are highly communicative.

03:48:29Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005957

So, we are very disturbed because the incidence of rape and sexual violence is about 10 times higher than the national average.

03:48:37Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005958

Last 30 seconds.

03:48:41Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005959

Last na po.

03:48:42Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005960

Here is just a challenge or food for thought.

03:48:47Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005961

We have been talking a lot since Monday about the PWD IDs.

03:48:51Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005962

Maybe it is time for us to step back a little and maybe not put too much value on the discounts and the VAT exemption if we can provide a whole of government approach in really providing services to persons with disabilities.

03:49:09Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005963

I can imagine that if there is no discount, then the government will have all agencies, not just DSWD na sila ang tinuturo lagi or DILG only.

03:49:20Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005964

But all agencies have to provide, make their public services accessible to all.

03:49:26Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005965

The reason that disability is such a beast to deal with siguro in governance, it's because it's a highly diverse group.

03:49:35Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005966

You're talking about, we have many conceptions of sino ba yung totoong person with a disability and laking debate niyan between the SWDD or HNCDA and so on.

03:49:48Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005967

Where are the deaf-blind?

03:49:49Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005968

Where are, we don't talk very often about those on the spectrum, those with intellectual disabilities, and those with mental health, those who have episodic and chronic conditions.

03:50:02Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005969

You don't see them.

03:50:04Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005970

And sometimes they're all just lumped.

03:50:06Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005971

O, psychosocial kayo lahat.

03:50:09Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005972

Okay.

03:50:10Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005973

And our experience with the deaf, it shows that this whole government approach is so critical.

03:50:17Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005974

And this is our appeal to the committee.

03:50:19Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005975

Let us not just put it all on one agency.

03:50:23Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005976

Because for instance, if we look at the 2,000 proposed disability support allowance, 2,000 per month, one interpreting for one hour is already 1,000.

03:50:34Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005977

Going to see a developmental pediatrician is at least 5,000.

03:50:39Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005978

Taking a grab, just to go from if you're in a wheelchair or you have to carry your child who has severe cerebral palsy,

03:50:48Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005979

will take you at least 800 pesos.

03:50:51Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005980

Wala ka agad yung 2,000.

03:50:57Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005981

There are now 35 deaf people who have been arrested without being read their rights.

03:51:05Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005982

They do not know why they're being arrested.

03:51:09Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005983

There was an attempt to translate the Miranda rights,

03:51:13Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005984

but it was done, unfortunately, without the lack of awareness.

03:51:17Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005985

That you have to ask deaf people.

03:51:18Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005986

So that they can be understood.

03:51:21Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005987

These are mostly deaf people who have never been to school.

03:51:24Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005988

The number is growing.

03:51:27Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005989

Where are we in the deaf-deaf SDGs?

03:51:31Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005990

The time will be up in three years.

03:51:34Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005991

We have had 15 years, SDG 1 on the poverty about leaving no one behind.

03:51:42Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005992

Persons with disabilities and children are already left behind.

03:51:45Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005993

Because there's no data even up until now.

03:51:48Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005994

How much is government spending for persons with disabilities, including children with disabilities?

03:51:54Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005995

The only study which has been done was in 2013 by Civil Society, the Philippine Coalition on the CRPD.

03:52:01Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005996

But as of now, we don't know.

03:52:03Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005997

We are invisible.

03:52:05Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-005998

Okay, this is the final.

03:52:07Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-005999

Yes, please, because also Senator Amy would actually like to interject here.

03:52:11Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006000

Okay, so please wrap up, Ms. Liza.

03:52:13Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-006001

This is a provision which builds on, this is for the deaf,

03:52:17Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-006002

and the main point, it has several things, we have sent the draft,

03:52:23Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-006003

is to make persons with disabilities visible.

03:52:28Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-006004

We are not asking for any appropriation, but we are asking for certain accounting,

03:52:34Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-006005

you know, governance mechanisms, just so that it can be seen.

03:52:39Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-006006

Because if you're out of sight, you're out of mind.

03:52:42Source

Dr. Liza Martinez

asr-006007

That's all. Thank you very much.

03:52:43Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006008

Yes, Madam Chair.

03:52:44Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006009

Thank you very much, Ms. Liza.

03:52:45Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006010

Yes, for the Chair.

03:52:47Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006011

Senator, I'm...

03:52:47Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006012

Dr. Martinez's plea that, in fact, those with severe challenges should actually be provided their own stipend.

03:52:57Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006013

I filed in the last Congress still a disability support fund already and refiled it in 2025 last year.

03:53:07Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006014

But we had discussions.

03:53:09Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006015

It's a far more modest proposition at 500 bucks per month, which is hardly enough, as you said,

03:53:14Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006016

because it's extremely expensive, assistive devices.

03:53:17Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006017

Therapy, et cetera, is already quite onerous.

03:53:21Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006018

And we came to some kind of agreement at that point in time, sa 500 a month lang muna.

03:53:28Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006019

Kasi kailangan mag-identify ka ng funding source.

03:53:31Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006020

Hindi ba, alam ni Chair yun.

03:53:33Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006021

At sana mabuhay ngayon, and I appreciate hearing it from you,

03:53:38Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006022

because nanahimik na yung bilis.

03:53:40Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006023

Sana buhayin natin ulit.

03:53:42Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006024

At tigit sa lahat, very alarming nga ang criminal statistics,

03:53:46Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006025

yung mga crimes against chastity.

03:53:47Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006026

And sexual assault sa ating deaf community.

03:53:53Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006027

And also the blind community.

03:53:55Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006028

Talagang malaking problema yan.

03:53:57Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006029

At kinakailangan talaga pagtuunan ng pansin.

03:54:01Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006030

Pero in the SWD, severely hampered, as are the LGUs,

03:54:05Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006031

for lack na nga of the psychologists, psychiatrists, and others who can identify mental

03:54:12Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006032

and the cover, catch-all, psychosocial neurodivergence,

03:54:17Source

Senator Imee R. Marcos

asr-006033

divergent, etc., classification.

03:54:21Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006034

Salamat, Sen. Amy.

03:54:22Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006035

Before I ask the Secretary if he'd like to respond initially dun sa inputs ni Ms. Liza,

03:54:29Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006036

gusto kong i-confirm na meron nga ang mga disability support allowances bills filed.

03:54:38Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006037

Yung sa representasyong ito, 2,000 a month din ang proposal sa bill.

03:54:44Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006038

So, pagtutulungan na lang namin i-follow up.

03:54:47Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006039

Muli.

03:54:47Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006040

Muli itong kongreso yung proposals namin iyon.

03:54:52Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006041

Ang ganda po nung proposal about a predictable rights-based social protection.

03:54:58Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006042

And sinare ko rin kay Secrex nung mga briefings namin na gusto ko talaga ma-raise yung profile ng department

03:55:05Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006043

aside from for their essential, urgent, tactical responses, yung long-term strategic trajectory ng department.

03:55:15Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006044

And I think isang magandang possible anchor ito.

03:55:17Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006045

Yung rights-based social protection na ang DSWD ang mag-champion yan.

03:55:22Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006046

So, well-noted yung mga specific proposed, possible proposed amendments for 2027 na i-restore to at least 2026 levels

03:55:32Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006047

at o i-adopt yung Tier 2.

03:55:35Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006048

And then yung possible amendment on the child protection system.

03:55:42Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006049

Kaugnay din ito sa kapapasa din naming batang ligtas.

03:55:47Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006050

Law, no?

03:55:48Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006051

Laban nga sa OSAIC, CISAEM, at pati laban sa NVE.

03:55:51Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006052

And then yun na nga po yung disability support allowance.

03:55:54Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006053

So, Secrex, would you like to respond?

03:55:56Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006054

Well-noted, Madam Chair.

03:55:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006055

Actually, Social Watch Philippines is a partner of ours in the cabinet cluster on social development and social protection.

03:56:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006056

So, all the points that they raise are well-noted.

03:56:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006057

I just want to put on record na meron na ho tayong mga incubator social protection programs in those areas.

03:56:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006058

At least that you mentioned.

03:56:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006059

First of all is yung binalik sa house na budget na 25 million for Project Aruga.

03:56:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006060

Project Aruga is a pilot project that takes care of the family, the caregivers themselves, as well as the child na may disability.

03:56:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006061

So, it calls for support in early detection, assessments.

03:56:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006062

Number two, meron ng disability support allowance na TIG to 2,000.

03:56:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006063

And then they also get auxiliary services.

03:56:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006064

We're going to use our AICs to tie up with service providers in the area.

03:56:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006065

So that whatever therapy or whatever intervention that they need, especially for children with special needs,

03:56:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006066

can seek help using our guarantee letters ng AICs program, another use of the AICs program.

03:57:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006067

And then it also calls for, it also has a built-in capacity building for family support

03:57:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006068

because it can be taxing for the family of a person with disability on how to cope.

03:57:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006069

We also have to take care of the family themselves.

03:57:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006070

And last, advocacy campaigns.

03:57:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006071

A lot of people are still ignorant, not because they choose to do so,

03:57:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006072

but because of lack of information on what they should and not do,

03:57:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006073

what they should say and what not say,

03:57:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006074

or how they should refer to people with disabilities.

03:57:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006075

So, the whole program is holistic.

03:57:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006076

Sa HGAB po, nabalik na ho siya, 25 million.

03:57:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006077

Malit lang ho siya, but it's a good starting point.

03:57:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006078

These are pilot programs in selected LGUs that we can learn from

03:57:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006079

so that pagka time na may budget na mas malaki,

03:57:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006080

we can already have the learnings and the impact.

03:57:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006081

The assessments and the monitorings.

03:57:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006082

Pangalawa po, the other fund that was restored was the 25 million fund for Project SAFE,

03:57:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006083

which is an OSAIC advocacy campaign.

03:57:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006084

One, it teaches people or the young people on what to look out for in their families,

03:58:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006085

the red flags.

03:58:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006086

Pangalawa, it has a strong reporting system and network of care for OSAIC victims.

03:58:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006087

Pangatlo, obviously what we do best are healing services in our care facilities.

03:58:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006088

And pangapat, recovery and reintegration services.

03:58:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006089

So, it's again a pilot because of the tight fiscal space,

03:58:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006090

but at least nandun na ho siya, the 25 million.

03:58:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006091

Now, I totally agree with the good professor on restoring sana the attached agency budgets

03:58:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006092

because these are administrative in nature.

03:58:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006093

As mentioned to the good chairwoman,

03:58:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006094

marami ho doon are employee-based na compensation na maaring mawala by next year

03:58:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006095

kung hindi ho maibabalik yung mga points.

03:58:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006096

Now, we can do a better job with the implementation of FSL.

03:58:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006097

We admit that, we admitted that in the House.

03:58:58Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006098

Kaming nga mismo sa Departamento, kulang ho kami.

03:59:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006099

Now, what is the concrete step towards the direction that you want?

03:59:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006100

The Department has an academy.

03:59:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006101

It's about to be opened by the end of the year.

03:59:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006102

Of course, we're running it off-site now.

03:59:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006103

The academy will work with the Philippine Association of the Deaf

03:59:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006104

to help capacitate our own service providers.

03:59:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006105

As well as LGU service providers

03:59:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006106

by doing these courses inside our academy, these certification programs.

03:59:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006107

Kung kami nga ho mismo, like I said, we can do a better job,

03:59:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006108

then admittedly, we should be doing a better job.

03:59:32Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006109

Salamat, Secrex.

03:59:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006110

Can I just wrap up, Madam Chair?

03:59:36Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006111

Yes, of course, please.

03:59:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006112

Now, yung 1%, we feel strongly about that.

03:59:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006113

That GMC came to life because we wanted to make sure

03:59:44Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006114

na may mga positions in government

03:59:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006115

that are reserved for people with disability.

03:59:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006116

Pero tama ho kayo nung sinubmit yung mga plano.

03:59:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006117

Sometimes you'd feel that they're haphazardly done.

03:59:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006118

That's why I spoke to Secretary Kim

03:59:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006119

na we're going to do a budget converging.

04:00:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006120

planning, meaning

04:00:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006121

we will capacitate the departments

04:00:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006122

on what is qualified

04:00:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006123

and what is not qualified in those

04:00:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006124

accessibility plans.

04:00:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006125

Kayo nga nagbanggit kung parang

04:00:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006126

feeling nyo kung ano-ano na lang yung nilagay

04:00:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006127

doon. So we totally agree.

04:00:16Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006128

Give us the time to work with DBM

04:00:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006129

and the agencies concerned so that not only

04:00:20Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006130

do we reserve 1% of our

04:00:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006131

hiring plan, of our manpower base

04:00:24Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006132

but to also make sure that our workplaces

04:00:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006133

are accessible

04:00:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006134

and conducive

04:00:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006135

to working for people with disabilities.

04:00:33Source

04:01:34Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006166

target beneficiaries natin for now?

04:01:36Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006167

Kasi po, honestly,

04:01:38Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006168

napakalaki pa po talaga yung population

04:01:40Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006169

ng mga older persons na wala man lang

04:01:42Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006170

na-receive na anumang pension

04:01:44Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006171

nasa 42% po based sa

04:01:46Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006172

data ng PSA

04:01:47Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006173

and around P4.8

04:01:50Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006174

million po yung walang natatanggap

04:01:51Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006175

ni anumang pension. So, yung advocacy

04:01:53Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006176

po namin, matagal na to. Alam ko si

04:01:55Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006177

Sen. Reza isa to sa nangunguna dito.

04:01:57Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006178

Sa Sen. yung magkaroon ng

04:01:59Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006179

universal social pension, pero

04:02:01Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006180

unfortunately, since 2006

04:02:03Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006181

na pinupush natin, di pa po ito na-approve.

04:02:06Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006182

Pero, sana

04:02:07Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006183

madagdagan man lang din po yung mga beneficiaries.

04:02:10Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006184

Then, pangatlo po,

04:02:13Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006185

kagagaling po lang po sa

04:02:14Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006186

Northern Summer last week.

04:02:16Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006187

Then, isa po sa mga partner LGUs

04:02:17Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006188

namin, nakausap po yung mga senior citizens

04:02:20Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006189

organizations, yung Federation

04:02:21Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006190

and OSCA.

04:02:23Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006191

Dahil po dun sa CBMS ngayon,

04:02:26Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006192

um, para

04:02:27Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006193

ang, ang

04:02:29Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006194

natawag dito, na-identify po

04:02:31Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006195

tuloy ng mga bagong beneficiaries ng

04:02:33Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006196

social pension. Yung mga age 60,

04:02:35Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006197

mayroon daw po silang nasa listahan ng mga

04:02:37Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006198

80 years old yung nabab na, na hindi

04:02:39Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006199

pa rin po nakakatanggap. At hindi po

04:02:41Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006200

napasama doon sa list. So,

04:02:43Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006201

with that po, kasi mayroon din po

04:02:45Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006202

sana nga kaming pinupropose

04:02:47Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006203

sa mga LGUs na partner namin, yung

04:02:49Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006204

database po for senior citizen, yung

04:02:51Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006205

senior citizens registration

04:02:54Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006206

and information system na

04:02:55Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006207

actually, ano na po rin,

04:02:57Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006208

namin to sa NCSC para magamit

04:02:59Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006209

po sana, na-focus po talaga sa senior

04:03:01Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006210

citizens. So, nasa OSCA siya

04:03:03Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006211

or MSWDO, CSWDO,

04:03:05Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006212

once na mamatay po yung

04:03:07Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006213

older persons, tanggal agad. Tapos once na may

04:03:09Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006214

mag-60, ano agad,

04:03:11Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006215

ma-i-enroll po agad. So, mas

04:03:13Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006216

madali po siyang

04:03:14Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006217

maano natin yung population

04:03:17Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006218

po ng mga older persons. Yan po. Thank you.

04:03:20Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006219

Thank you rin, Ms.

04:03:21Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006220

Emily.

04:03:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006220-split-2

Madam

04:03:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006221

Chair, ma'am, points of clarification.

04:03:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006222

Yung CBMS, hindi po,

04:03:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006223

hindi po siya age-based, no?

04:03:30Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006224

So,

04:03:30Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006224-split-2

it covers everybody?

04:03:31Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006225

Yes, po.

04:03:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006225-split-2

Well,

04:03:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006226

4.2 po yung target beneficiaries

04:03:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006227

this year, because yun po yung budget na

04:03:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006228

available. Pero sana nga parehas

04:03:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006229

kami na kasama nyo kami sa

04:03:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006230

lahat universal.

04:03:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006231

But number two, yung CBMS doesn't

04:03:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006232

exclude based on age. Pero

04:03:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006233

adminado rin po ang PSA and the good

04:03:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006234

chair can validate this, na medyo malaki nga yung

04:03:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006235

naging exclusion because it probably was the

04:03:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006236

first time that we were running CBMS nationally.

04:03:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006237

Now, ang panawa,

04:03:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006238

yung advice namin sa mga LGU, at alam

04:03:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006239

na rin nila ito, na dahil lahat po ng

04:04:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006240

financial assistance, not just from the

04:04:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006241

SWD, dahan-dahan na

04:04:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006242

nakinukuha sa CBMS,

04:04:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006243

seryosohin nila. You have to remember, ako ho,

04:04:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006244

nag-imero kasi ako. The CBMS is only as good as

04:04:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006245

the support from the local government unit.

04:04:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006246

Kasi if you are not going to monitor

04:04:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006247

the enumerators, talagang hindi yan makakapasok

04:04:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006248

kung saan-saan. And hindi lang naman ho ito sa

04:04:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006249

seniors nangyari, pati sa 4Ps nangyari.

04:04:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006250

So,

04:04:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006251

I think our local government units will do better

04:04:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006252

now in monitoring the enumerators

04:04:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006253

kasi sila ang magiging

04:04:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006254

biktima sa dulo, mga constituent nila.

04:04:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006255

Now, Madam, you mentioned

04:04:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006256

na may mga 60 pa taas na hindi pa

04:04:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006257

nakakatanggap. As mentioned a while ago kasi,

04:04:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006258

we reformatted the guidelines in the

04:04:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006259

department na dahil limitado yung pera,

04:04:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006260

binaliktad natin, unahin natin yung mas

04:04:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006261

matatanda, paatras. Kasi

04:04:45Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006262

for obvious reasons na hindi

04:04:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006263

natin sure kung baka

04:04:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006264

anytime, hindi na sila

04:04:51Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006265

tumagal. So, that's why pinaatras natin.

04:04:53Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006266

Meaning, 100, pababa muna.

04:04:55Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006267

That's why you will probably see

04:04:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006268

like that sa mga LGU na bakit

04:04:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006269

mas marami sa 60, tapos

04:05:01Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006270

yung mga 70 wala, pero mas marami nakakatanggap

04:05:03Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006271

dun sa matatanda. Binaliktad

04:05:05Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006272

ho namin yun. Now,

04:05:07Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006273

lastly, I know

04:05:09Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006274

the intention of a database

04:05:11Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006275

for the seniors is good. But

04:05:13Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006276

alam po nyo, from my experience

04:05:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006277

as mayor and now

04:05:17Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006278

as secretary, multiple databases

04:05:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006279

can be detrimental to our health.

04:05:22Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006280

Ganyan ho nangyayari kasi may

04:05:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006281

database si ganito, may database si ganyan,

04:05:25Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006282

may database si ganito. I think the

04:05:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006283

intent of the CBMS is to centralize the

04:05:29Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006284

database so that all of us can just look at that.

04:05:32Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006285

Siguro ang payo ko na lang, and maybe the

04:05:33Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006286

Senate committee can look into

04:05:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006287

it, the stronger implementation of the

04:05:37Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006288

CBMS. Nandiyan na ho yung pera. We're spending so

04:05:39Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006289

much money on it already. The CBMS

04:05:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006290

can be a very powerful tool if

04:05:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006291

executed right.

04:05:46Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006292

Clarification lang po.

04:05:48Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006293

Alright, Ms. Yannis.

04:05:50Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006294

Secretary Rex, ang sinabi ko po

04:05:51Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006295

yung experience po sa Northern Summer,

04:05:53Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006296

yung 80 years old ang di pa nakakatanggap

04:05:56Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006297

na matagal na po, pero mas nakatanggap

04:05:57Source

COSE Executive Director Emily N. Beridico

asr-006298

yung mga younger.

04:05:59Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006299

So, ang theory ko ho dyan,

04:06:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006300

again, dahil limited yung

04:06:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006301

funds natin, syempre yung incumbent,

04:06:06Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006302

hindi naman namin pwede alisin yun.

04:06:08Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006303

So, kung nababawasan na po kami,

04:06:10Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006304

pabaliktad namin ginagawa. Kukuha kami

04:06:12Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006305

from the altered database. It could be

04:06:14Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006306

those people are not in the CBMS

04:06:15Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006307

because the exclusion is quite big, and I mentioned that

04:06:18Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006308

to Secretary Balisakan already,

04:06:19Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006309

as end user, na feeling ko the exclusion nga

04:06:21Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006310

is greater than 30%.

04:06:23Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006311

But, what did we do with Secretary Balisakan?

04:06:26Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006312

We now have an on-demand,

04:06:27Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006313

parang sa four piece, meaning

04:06:28Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006314

our people, the MSWDO

04:06:31Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006315

and the PSA, can introduce

04:06:34Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006316

people into the database

04:06:35Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006317

if we validate na totoo itong mga taong to.

04:06:38Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006318

So, nababawa,

04:06:40Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006319

sabi ng MSWDO,

04:06:41Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006320

si Rex Gatchalian ay

04:06:43Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006321

buhay, nandito sa harapan namin,

04:06:46Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006322

nagbibigay kami ng pension sa kanya,

04:06:47Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006323

kailangan talaga ng tulong.

04:06:49Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006324

Then, DSWD,

04:06:52Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006325

MSWD, PSA,

04:06:54Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006326

can certify that this person should be

04:06:56Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006327

put into the database.

04:06:57Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006328

So, it's a workaround

04:07:00Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006329

na kasi close-ended si CBMS,

04:07:02Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006330

but we created ways to tap

04:07:04Source

DSWD Secretary Rex Gatchalian

asr-006331

into it, even para sa four piece.

04:07:07Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006332

Salamat,

04:07:08Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006333

Secrex.

04:07:09Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006334

Moving forward in terms of yung

04:07:11Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006335

pag-consolidate na ng mga databases

04:07:13Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006336

and part of the resolution

04:07:16Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006337

nung ano nga ba yung relationship

04:07:18Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006338

between DSWD at saka

04:07:19Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006339

NCSC,

04:07:22Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006340

maybe a

04:07:24Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006341

starting point for that is the

04:07:25Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006342

CBMS. I'm just thinking aloud,

04:07:27Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006343

you know, CBMS, pero may paraan

04:07:30Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006344

na i-disaggregate yung data

04:07:32Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006345

ng senior citizens, and then

04:07:34Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006346

merong ganyang platform

04:07:36Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006347

para i-onboard

04:07:37Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006348

yung mga ma-validate na additional.

04:07:40Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006349

So, I'm not the techie

04:07:41Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006350

person in the room, so just thinking aloud

04:07:44Source

Senator Risa Hontiveros

asr-006351
