Speaker Romualdez plinantsa pagpalabas ng P390M calamity aid sa mga ‘Enteng’ victims
ALINSUNOD sa utos ni Pangulong Ferdinand “Bongbong” R. Marcos Jr., plinantsa ni Speaker Ferdinand Martin G. Romualdez noong Lunes ng gabi ang pagpapalabas ng P390 milyong halaga ng tulong pinansyal para sa mga nasalanta ng Bagyong Enteng na nagpabaha sa malaking bahagi ng Metro Manila at CALABARZON.
Ang tanggapan ni Speaker Romualdez at ng Tingog Party-list ay maglalabas din ng pondo para sa pamamahagi ng 35,000 food packs na naglalaman ng de lata, noodles, at bigas sa mga evacuation center sa Metro Manila at Rizal simula ngayong Martes.
“Sisimulan natin ngayon ang ating relief mission katuwang ang Tingog Partylist. Nauna tayong humiling ng hiwalay na pinansiyal na ayuda para sa mga distritong nasalanta alinsunod sa direktiba ni Pangulong Bongbong Marcos na alalayan ang mga naapektuhan ng bagyo,” ani Speaker Romualdez. “My heartfelt sympathies are with all Filipino families affected by Typhoon Enteng. The flooding in the National Capital Region and CALABARZON, especially soon after Typhoon Carina, is a heavy burden.”
“I understand how overwhelming it must be to face these challenges back-to-back, and I want you to know that you are not alone – we stand with you during this difficult time,” saad ng lider ng Kamara na mayroong mahigit 300 kinatawan.
Ayon kay Speaker Romualdez, isang abugado mula sa University of the Philippines (UP), tig-P10 milyong financial aid ang ibibigay sa mga pamilyang apektado sa 39 na congressional district na naapektuhan ng bagyo.
Ang kabuuang P390 milyong financial assistance ay popondohan sa ilalim ng Ayuda Para sa Kapos ang Kita Program (AKAP) ng Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD).
“We, at the House of Representatives, have quickly organized financial assistance to help those in need. Through the DSWD AKAP Program, we are providing P10,000 to each of the affected families. While this may be a small step, I hope it offers some immediate relief and helps you begin the process of rebuilding,” wika pa ni Speaker Romualdez.
“I want to extend my sincere gratitude to the House Members who moved swiftly to ensure this support reached those who need it most. Their dedication to serving their communities in such trying times is commendable,” dagdag pa nito.
Uunahin sa mga bibigyan ng tulong pinansyal ang mga pinakabulnerableng sektor na nasalanta ng bagyo upang mabilis na makabangon ang mga ito, ayon kay Speaker Romualdez.
