00:25President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. passed three important bills today,

00:31including the bills that will help in improving the economy of the Philippines

00:36and to protect the mental health of students and teachers.

00:43In order to increase the production of rice, reduce the price of rice,

00:47and ensure food security,

00:50President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. prepared a bill on the agenda

00:55regarding the provision of rice for this reparation.

00:58Under Republic Act 12078,

01:02the Rice Competitiveness Enhancement Fund, or RCEF, was extended until 2031,

01:08which ended in 2024.

01:11From the current 10 billion pesos, the RCEF increased to 30 billion pesos.

01:17It will be used to distribute free rice that can provide a high income.

01:23It will also provide financial assistance, irrigation, and other assistance to farmers.

01:30This is also the statement of President Marcos Jr.

01:35This law empowers our farmers to thrive and to help our country secure a stable food supply.

01:42By increasing investments in agriculture,

01:45providing more resources, and creating a more competitive rice industry,

01:50we are laying the groundwork for a stronger, more self-sufficient Philippines.

01:59One of the biggest parts of the RCEF fund

02:03is the distribution of machinery to farmers,

02:07which is expected to respond to post-harvest losses.

02:15By preventing up to 375,000 tons of milled rice from being wasted annually,

02:23we can help feed an additional 3.4 million Filipinos each year for the next six years,

02:30improving food security, making rice more accessible to everyone.

02:35It is said that this will also prevent the supply from running out

02:39or that the price of rice will be too high.

02:42This is given by the power of the President of the Philippines

02:46and the Department of Agriculture

02:48to increase the limited volume of rice in low prices in these situations.

02:54The Regulatory Power, the Bureau of Plant Industry,

02:58was commissioned to inspect the rice warehouses

03:01and establish a national database to monitor the rice supply in the country.

03:07The Republic Act No. 12079, the OVAD Refund for Non-Residents Tourism Act,

03:15was also passed today.

03:16It is expected to attract many tourists

03:20while making the Philippines known as a prime shopping destination in Southeast Asia.

03:26Under the law,

03:28foreign tourists are allowed to claim a 12% value-added tax refund

03:34for local products purchased here in the Philippines

03:37worth Php 3,000 per transaction.

03:42The products purchased can be refunded

03:45from accredited stores and will be transported abroad

03:49within 60 days of purchase.

03:53According to President Marcos Jr.,

03:5530% of tourist expenses in the country

04:00will help small businesses and local industries.

04:06The Basic Education Mental Health and Well-Being Promotion Act was also passed today.

04:11This will strengthen the mental health programs in schools

04:15by placing a plenty of positions for school counselors.

04:21It is expected to have 4,600 school counselors

04:25who will focus on the mental health of children in schools.

04:29It will strengthen mental awareness

04:31and address problems in thinking and suicide prevention efforts.

04:37This is important because it is said that

04:39the number of people suspected of committing suicide attempts in 2024

04:45has increased to 1,000 from only 300 in 2023.

04:49That is the latest from Malacanang.
