00:04 The DSWD is asking the government to make a permanent program of the food stamp program.
00:11 The committee has already approved the plan but because there is a lack of funds,
00:15 it will be passed to another committee in the chamber.
00:17 For now, the DSWD has already asked for additional funds from the Department of Budget and Management
00:24 to give the target of 300,000 beneficiaries starting from July.
00:29 At present, the program is only for the 3,000 poorest families in 5 places in the Philippines.
00:36 The program will be funded every year and will continue to be implemented even if the administration changes its mind.
00:44 Under the food stamp program, beneficiaries receive P3,000 per month
00:50 through electronic benefit transfer or EBT card to buy food from the neighboring families.

01:02 The DSWD is asking the government to make a permanent program of the food stamp program.
01:11 What do the netizens say?
01:13 Wilma Santos has no problem with that.
01:15 As long as the beneficiaries are entitled.
01:19 Rachel Lozano said that the priority should be giving work.
01:24 It is unfair to the minimum wage earners who are not beneficiaries of the program.
01:28 Like Rachel, Jonathan Del Carmen also has the same opinion.
01:32 He said that Filipinos will be more lazy in the food stamp program.
