Marcos continues to improve the government’s social protection programs for Filipinos heavily affected by poverty, calamities and disasters. His proposed pieces of legislation on health response have not been enacted into law.
A netizen’s post on a Facebook group claims that DSWD Secretary Erwin Tulfo has approved cash assistance of 10,000 for every Filipino family.
Binawi ni Social Welfare Secretary Erwin Tulfo ang kanyang unang anunsyo na ang mga benepisyaryo ng Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) ay karapat-dapat na makatanggap ng tulong pang-edukasyon sa ilalim ng Assistance to Individuals in Crisis Situation (AICS) program ng kanyang tanggapan.
Social Welfare Secretary Erwin Tulfo has backtracked on his initial announcement that Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) beneficiaries were entitled to receive education aid under the Assistance to Individuals in Crisis Situation (AICS) program of his office.
This is misleading because solo parents or 4Ps beneficiaries are not outright recipients of the cash assistance. There are eligibility requirements under the DSWD guidelines for the Livelihood Assistance Grants (LAG).
Dating kontra, si DSWD Undersecretary Luzviminda Ilagan ngayon ay naniniwala na ang Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) ay isang "kongkretong" solusyon sa kahirapan.
Ilagan was a staunch critic of 4Ps during her three terms as Gabriela partylist representative.
