00:00 In the ongoing price cut in rice, retailers have only two options.

00:04 Sell the rice or stop selling.

00:09 Here is the first live news of Darlene Kai.

00:12 Darlene.

00:14 No one can sell a regular meal dry of P41 per kilo to the rice we have harvested that is already open here in Trabajo Market in Manila.

00:27 There are those who can sell P45 well-milled rice, but they are already in loss.

00:33 John Ray can't do anything if he won't sell P45 per kilo of well-milled rice even if he is already in loss.

00:43 This is the list of price list from his supplier.

00:47 Based on this, he bought a basket of well-milled rice for P2,170.

00:52 This means that the total is P43.40.

00:57 That's why there is no rice to be grown and it's a loss if he will sell P45.

01:01 They still have expenses in their place, delivery, plastic and other things.

01:06 It's hard for the retailers because there are only a few rice farmers here.

01:13 We need to follow the government's order.

01:17 Based on Executive Order No. 39 of President Bongbong Marcos, the price ceiling for regular and well-milled rice will be implemented.

01:25 But we haven't gotten the regular and well-milled P41 yet, ma'am.

01:30 This is P45 per kilo of well-milled rice.

01:33 It's yellower, more crushed and has a different smell compared to other types of rice.

01:38 That's why other farmers like Margie don't buy it.

01:42 We want to buy it but the color is different. It's like brown, like it's old.

01:51 The customer needs it.

01:53 The rice here is good.

01:56 And the smell is like that.

01:59 Some rice retailers like Amie can't sell P41 to P45 per kilo of rice.

02:08 Only the better types of rice are what her customers want.

02:13 P45 is only available for P1,125 per kilo.

02:20 The best is for P13.

02:23 How can we sell it at that price?

02:28 That's why if the price cap is to be implemented, she won't be the first to sell rice.

02:35 That's why we said, "What can we do?" I'll drop the price because it's too high.

02:41 I'll remove the rice first.

02:43 This is one of the calls of the people we talked to who sell rice here in the labor market.

02:48 If that's what will happen, it's better to get it back.

02:52 So we can get it back to the market because the rice is really bad.

03:04 Igan, the rice retailers I talked to said that they are ready to follow the price cap that the government imposed.

03:12 However, because the price of rice is too high, they can't do anything if the selling doesn't stop if the policy and system continues.

03:24 That is the first news here in Manila. I'm Darlene Cai for GMA Integrated News.

03:29 Igan, you are the first in the news. Subscribe to GMA Integrated News on YouTube.
