00:00We will clarify the 20% discount for PWD.

00:04Our Alamin, along with the National Council on Disability Affairs Executive Director,

00:10Asek Glenda Riloba.

00:11Asek Glenda, we are with DSWD.

00:14Good afternoon to you.

00:18Good afternoon, Usec Edu and Usec Nina.

00:22Asek, first of all, for our countrymen to understand

00:25what is the basis of this 20% discount for PWDs in our country?

00:33Usec Edu, the basis of this is Republic Act No. 10754

00:38or the law that extends the benefits and privileges of people with disabilities.

00:44So, Republic Act No. 7277 or the Magna Carta of Persons with Disabilities

00:52states that the establishments that sell products and provide services will be given a 20% discount

01:01and they are also exempted from the 12% VAT.

01:05So, this is the legal basis, Usec Edu.

01:10What is the correct use of this discount for group setting and individual consumption?

01:18Usec Nina, for individual consumption, persons with disabilities can use this.

01:24For example, they went to an establishment or restaurant

01:28and it is very clear that they are using it alone.

01:31So, definitely, they can avail the 20% and the VAT deduction

01:36based on the total cost of the price of the food that they avail.

01:41For group setting, if a person with disability has a solo order,

01:46only that will be given a 20% discount and VAT exemption.

01:51If all the food that is in order is for one group,

01:55the amount that is in order should be divided and commensurate with the order

02:01or the exclusive consumption of persons with disabilities.

02:05For example, if there are five persons, it will be divided into five.

02:09So, only one portion will have a 20% discount and then exemption from VAT.

02:21Alright, thank you for clarifying.

02:23Glenda is really a partner that you need because many of our PWDs

02:28have not yet understood the group setting and what their claim is.

02:32The total bill deducted is 20%.

02:35To clarify, Glenda, what are the limitations of using this discount card

02:41that is included in the Magna Carta for PWDs?

02:46Maybe we should know where we can apply the 20%.

02:52We have a special discount of 5%.

02:56So, for the 20% discount, it will only be available on medicines and medical supplies

03:04subject to the guidelines of the Department of Health,

03:07Administrative Order No. 2012-007.

03:12So, professional fee of attending physicians in all private hospitals,

03:17medical facilities, outpatient clinics, and home healthcare services.

03:23Professional fees of license help providing home care services.

03:28Medical and dental services diagnostic.

03:31Laboratory fees in all private hospitals, medical facilities, outpatient clinics.

03:38Actual fare for land transportation, travel in public utilities,

03:43including domestic air transport services, and sea shipping vessels.

03:49Utilization of services in hotels and similar lodging establishments,

03:54restaurants, and recreation centers.

03:57Admission fee for theater, cinema, concert halls, circuses, leisure, and amusement.

04:06Food, drinks, desserts, and other consumable food items.

04:11Funeral and burial.

04:13So, that is the only coverage of 20%.

04:16The 5% is for basic necessities or prime commodities.

04:22So, that is the limitation of our discount.

04:25They can see this on our web page of NCDA,

04:30what is entitled for 20% and what is entitled for the 5%.

04:36So, what is the implication of this for restaurants and service providers

04:41for their group consumption including PWD?

04:48Siguro po, marapat lang po na maging aware at maging accommodating po

04:56ang ating mga restaurants and establishments sa pago-honor po

04:59ng persons with disabilities ID cards.

05:02And i-determine po nila na halimbawa man even if ang isang person with disability

05:07ay um-order siya ng group meal.

05:10Pero nakita naman nila, lalong-lalong kung dine-in,

05:13made-determine naman nila na exclusive availment and enjoyment

05:18of persons with disability.

05:20Kahit group meal yan, siya lang yung nag-consume.

05:22Then, kinakailangan po, total cost po yung ibigay po nila po

05:27para sa persons with disability.

05:29So, yung determination po lies with the establishment.

05:33Pero yun nga po, pag napatunayan na talaga namang

05:37si persons with disability lang yung nag-consume,

05:40even if it's a group meal, kinakailangan po ay ibigay po ito

05:44ng ating mga establishmento.

05:46As in Glenda, balikan natin ng issue ng regulation dito sa pag-issue ng PWD IDs.

05:53Alam natin, nakatalaga ito sa local government.

05:58Paano natin na-regulate?

06:01Alam natin, may mga napeke pa rin yan.

06:03May mga for sale yan na fake IDs na talaga na-abuso.

06:07May mga habang ba tayo sa NCDA para sugpuin yung mga ganung peking IDs?

06:15Yung SEC-EDO, tayo ay very closely nakikipag-coordinate

06:19sa mga persons with disability affairs offices.

06:22So, tinuturoan natin sila, binibigyan natin sila ng technical assistance

06:26regarding sa pag-issue ng ID po ng ating mga persons with disability

06:33para yung talagang presumption ng regularity ng pag-issue ng ID ay naroon.

06:39Nakikipag-partner din po tayo sa mga establishment

06:43para po bantayan ang ating mga ID na nagsisirculate

06:49at tumatawag po sila sa mga PDO offices para po i-report

06:52kung meron silang nakikita ng mga fake na mga IDs.

06:56So, kailan lang po nakipag-meeting po tayo sa mga ilang local chief executive

07:01lalong-lalo na po dito sa National Capital Region

07:04para po magkaroon ng hotline ang mga PDO offices na kung maaari ay 24 hours

07:10kasi yun lang po yung way para po ang mga establishments naman po

07:13ay ma-validate po ang authenticity ng ating mga ID.

07:18Sa lower house po meron po tayong pending deal regarding the universal design of ID

07:24na ang nakalagay po doon ang mag-i-issue sana ay ang NCDA.

07:29So, we're working closely po dito sa Congress regarding dito

07:34at meron po tayong hearing sa October 22 sa Technical Working Group on universal ID po.

07:42Bukod po dito sa 20% discount, may iba pa po bang benefits at discounts

07:48na maaaring ma-avail ng ating mga PWDs katulad po nitong 20% discount?

07:55Yusek Mina, meron tayong JMC No. 1 Series of 2022.

08:00Na-inamend naman ngayong 2024 ng JMC 24-02. Ito yung sinabi ko kanina na 5% sa basic and prime commodities.

08:10So, dati yung cap noong 2022, meron kang cap na within a month na P1,300.

08:19So, every week kinakailangan may mababawa sa mga binibiling prime commodities and basic commodities P65.

08:29So, for this year tumaas yung cap, naging P2,500 siya.

08:34So, every week senior citizen or persons with disability can get as high as P125 per week.

08:47So, a total of P500 for basic and prime commodities.

08:51Meron po tayong mga local ordinances na nagmumula sa LGUs na nagbibigay ng special privileges.

08:56Pero ito ay nagmula sa savings or programs ng ating mga local government unit.

09:03Meron din naman po tayong automatic na registration or membership ng persons with disability sa ating Peel Health.

09:11Meron din po tayong mga disability support services na ibinibigay po nila.

09:16Diyan po sa opisina nila, USEC-EDU, sa aming mother agency, ang DSWD.

09:22So, nagbibigay po tayo ng financial assistance, medical assistance, and then auxiliary or augmentation po.

09:29Ito po yung mga gadgets na kinakailangan ng mga persons with disability.

09:33Katulad ng mga prosthesis, hearing aid, canes, and wheelchairs po.

09:38So, madami po na na-avail ang ating mga persons with disability.

09:43Alright. Mensahin nyo na lang po si Glenda sa ating mga kababayang PWD na nakatutok sa atin ngayon.

09:51Una sa lahat, maraming salamat ni USEC-EDU and USEC-NINA for giving us this opportunity

09:57na i-clarify po yung tungkol sa 20% discount and other discounts.

10:02Kailang lead agency po para sa disability sector, ang NCDA po ay bukas na tumatanggap ng mga tanong,

10:08sugestion, at mga reklamo patungkol po sa issue ng discounts at iba pang violation po sa mga karapatan ng persons with disability.

10:18Makakaasa rin po kayo na kami ay patuloy na kumakausap sa ibang mga ahensya at mga institusyon

10:24upang gawing mas inklusibo ang mga pulisiya at programa para po sa sektor ng may kapansanan.

10:31For further po na information, pwede po kayong mag-email sa council.ncda.gov.ph,

10:39pwede rin po sa aming FB and Instagram page,

10:42at pwede din pong tumawag sa Programs Management Division number 53104763.

10:50Maraming salamat po at mabuhay po kayo.

10:53Maraming salamat po sa inyong oras.

10:55Paglilinaw ng Manila International Airport Authority tungkol sa VIP Service Protocols

11:10at ang paghahanda nito bilang airport regulator,

11:13ating pag-uusapan kasama si Atty. Chris Bendijo,

11:17ang tagapagsalita at head executive assistant ng Manila International Airport Authority.

11:23Atty. Chris, magandang tanghali po.

11:29Ano ba ang nagtulak sa MIAA para maglabas ng paglilinaw tungkol sa VIP Service Policies na ito?

11:38Yes ma'am, there was a clarification only on the part of MIAA dahil ito kung VIP Service na ito,

11:47this will now be handled by NNIC already bilang operator ng ating terminal.

11:52And in one of the press releases, there was misinterpretation siguro na sinasabi doon

11:59na for P800 if you avail of the VIP services, mababaypas po ang airport processes.

12:06So we had to clarify that even before when MIAA was handling the VIP services,

12:12wala pong pagbabaypas na nangyayari sa ating airport regulations.

12:17Even if VIP po kayo, mag-avail po kayo ng VIP services,

12:21dadaan pa rin po tayo sa customs, immigration, quarantine and security protocols ng ating airport.

12:27Alright, salamat sa paglilinaw. Further clarification siguro Atty. Chris,

12:32ano po ba yung mga purpose, original purpose talaga at features nitong meet and assist service

12:37na binibigay ng MIAA at ano po magiging pagbabago dito

12:42sa ilalim ng pamumuno ng new IA Infrastructure Corporation?

12:47Originally, USEC, ang VIP services natin was a free service.

12:51This was extended as a courtesy for other government and other states.

12:56Para pag meron tayong mga dignitaries or visita, this was the VIP service that was extended to them.

13:02It slowly evolved into a payable service and it was open to the public,

13:06kung sinong may gusto mag-avail ng VIP services.

13:09Before, when it was MIAA hunting it, meron po tayong assistance patungkol sa baggage ng ating VIP passenger.

13:17Yung ating VIP passenger would also have access to the VIP lounge.

13:21At meron nga po siyang parang magiging guide.

13:24Kasi sa aming mga historical records, yung po nag-avail itong kadalasan either yung mga first time traveler,

13:31yung pong mga medyo sikat na personalities para meron po silang parang kasama sa ating paliparan,

13:37at pati rin po yung mga advanced in age na gusto po na may kasamang magpubuhat na kanilang mga bagahe.

13:43Now, with respect to the turning over to the new NAIA INPRA Corporation,

13:48I think it's their intention to sort of discourage itong pag-a-avail ng VIP services

13:54because with the introduction of their technology, their renovations, their improvements,

13:59ang hangarin po nila ay hindi na po mga ngailangan ng VIP service.

14:04Because mababawasan na po yung queuing, bibilis na po yung ating mga proseso,

14:08there will be no need to avail of VIP services na lang po.

14:12But in the very rare occasions that we will still avail, they have increased the premium to P8,000 po.

14:19Sir, magkano po uli?

14:21Question, kung ikaw ay ordinary yung mamamayan, hindi ka artista, hindi ka official or dignitary or politiko,

14:29pwede bang mag-avail yan basta magbayad sila? At magkano nga uli?

14:34Tama po yun ma'am. It is open to the public if they will be paying the premium of P8,000 po.

14:41Okay.

14:43Alright, salamat sa clarification.

14:45Atty., ano po ba yung mga hakbang ng MIAA para may iwasang maabuso itong ganitong meet and assist services

14:54ng MIAA noon bago paman ang naging pagtaas ng presyo nito?

15:01Even before sir, ito pong ating meet and assist, there's only a selected office that will handle meet and assist.

15:11At sila po yung makikita nyo noon na nakapurple na coat.

15:15At present, we will turn over to NNIC.

15:18They have also limited the individuals who would be able to provide this service.

15:23Kung kaya very limited rin lang po talaga ang mag-a-avail ito.

15:27At the same time, we have to consider also and balance yung security na kailangan nating gawin.

15:33At sa ganun, hindi naman po maabuso itong meet and assist service natin.

15:38Paano natin masisiguro na hindi ito maaabuso ngayon na mga pasaherong may kakayahang magbayad ng malaki para sa VIP service?

15:48In this case, 8,000 per person.

15:51So kahit po bata, may senior citizens discount ba yan?

15:56Tama po yan.

15:57If the senior citizen would still avail of the VIP service,

16:01una-una po meron na po siyang automatic service mula sa airlines for assistance kapag tayo po senior citizen.

16:07But in the event that they will avail of it, the discount extended to senior citizens will still be offered.

16:13Ito naman po ginagawa ng NNIC towing mag-a-apply po tayo for VIP service.

16:19I think it undergoes a screening process also.

16:22They also evaluate itong nagre-request kung mayroon pa bang ibang considerations.

16:27And in such instances, lumadaan din po siya sa security processing.

16:32So ito po yung mga pamamaraan nila para ma-regulate itong meet and assist service.

16:36Again, their intention really is maybe in a few years' time,

16:40wala na po mag-a-avail ng VIP service dahil the entire process sa ating airport will be expedited na po.

16:47Alright.

16:48Atty. Chris, sa ngayon naman po, ano yung paghahanda ng MIA para sa bagong role ninyo as airport regulator?

16:54Para sa kaalaman ng ating mga kababayan, ano po bang pagbabago when it comes to policy and operations ng paliparan?

17:03Tama po yun. We just completed a three-day workshop with ADB

17:08as we identify and we also absorb itong ating magiging bagong role as regulator.

17:16Dati po, kami po ang nagpapatako ng ating paliparan.

17:20Dito rin po, tayo naman ang mag-o-observe sa nagpapatako ng ating paliparan. Ito yung NNIC.

17:26At doon sa ating concession agreement, may nakapalo po ditong key performance indicators.

17:31Magiging trabaho na po ng MIA na bantayan na tutugunan po ito ng NNIC.

17:37Ito rin po ang ating kagampanan ito.

17:39Pagdating po sa ikawalong taon ng concession agreement, ito rin po ang magiging basihan

17:44kung mag-e-extend pa po ng additional 10 years ang kontrata with NNIC.

17:48At kung hindi naman po nila ito nagagampanan, ang kanilang kontrata ay mananatili ng 15 taon po lamang.

17:54So, marami pa po tayong ginagawang activities.

17:57For instance, meron tayong nakaschedule pang training sa ating magiging electronic data system

18:04kung saan magkakaroon ng palitan ng komunikasyon between the private concessionaire and MIA.

18:09We are familiarizing ourselves with this new technology.

18:12And of course, just this morning, we convened yung project management team

18:17at nangsa ganun, bawat departamento ng MIA ay may tungkulin na babantayan,

18:22may key performance indicator na babantayan,

18:24at nangsa ganun ay masigurado nating matutugunan ng ating private concessionaire ang concession agreement.

18:30Paano po sa ngayon binabalanse ng MIA at NNIC ang kaligtasan, seguridad,

18:36at professionalism sa lahat po ng airport services nito?

18:41Madalas po ang ating coordination with NNIC.

18:45We have to admit that even before the turnover, marami na po tayong coordination meeting.

18:51Parang meron po nangyaring shadowing.

18:54Meron po tayong security division. Sa NNIC din po, meron din po security division.

19:00At madalas po naguusap ang dalawang panig na ito.

19:03At nangsa ganun, masigurado natin na smooth yung transition.

19:07Ngayon na nag-ooperate na po ang NNIC, patuloy pa rin po ang dialogong ito.

19:11At dahil meron din po mga responsibilidad nakapaloob sa ating concession agreement,

19:17kung kaya talagang minamarapat po namin madalas ang pag-uusap with NNIC,

19:22para masigurado po natin wala po tayong nakakaligta ang obligasyon sa loob ng ating concession agreement.

19:28Alright, Atty. Chris, mensahe o paalala nyo na lang po sa ating mga kababayan mula sa inyo sa MIAA.

19:36Mula po sa MIAA, galing po sa ating general manager na si Eric Ines,

19:41kami po ay nagpapaalala na bilang sa pagtugun namin sa aming bagong role as regulator,

19:48makakaasa pa rin po ang ating publiko na tayo ay handang makinig at maglintod sa ating mananakay sa palipara.

19:54Kung meron pa kayong naisiparating o reklamo, opinion, or reaction sa mga bagay,

19:59sa mga developments na nangyari sa ating paliparan,

20:01pag po kayong mahiyang lumapit sa amin, at amin po itong ipaparating din sa ating private concession agreement.

20:07Yun lang po, maraming salamat.

20:09Maraming salamat po sa inyong oras, Atty. Chris Bendijo,

20:13ang tagapagsalita at head executive assistant ng Manila International Airport Authority.
