00:00Correspondents, the role played by the National Anti-Poverty Commissioner, NAPC,

00:06when it comes to the government's plans to lower the poverty rate in the country.

00:11And some of the prominent figures included in this are those who serve as the laughingstock,

00:17who are the backbone of the country.

00:19He is the one appointed by NAPC.

00:21And now, let's join us live this morning,

00:25Ruperto Cauper Alrosa, the Vice Chairperson for Basic Sectors of NAPC,

00:32to talk about the projects and programs in the basic sector.

00:39Good morning and welcome to Rise and Shine Pilipinas, Sir.

00:42Cauper, good morning.

00:43Good morning to you, Ma'am Diana and Mr. Andre.

00:46And to all the televiewers, advance Merry Christmas.

00:49Advance Merry Christmas.

00:51All right, Cauper.

00:52For the knowledge of our viewers, educate us all about the basic sectors

00:59under the National Anti-Poverty Commission.

01:01What are these?

01:02And in the present, what should NAPC focus on?

01:07Yes, for our listeners to have an idea, NAPC is very unique.

01:15The government and the basic sector are included here.

01:19It is assisted by the secretariat, led by the lead computer.

01:24The potent sectors include the marginalized people, farmers, sectors,

01:30PWDs, senior citizens, children, cooperatives, NGOs, victims of disaster and calamity,

01:42children, and youth and students, urban poor.

01:47Those are the 14 basic sectors under NAPC.

01:52Cauper, as a facilitator in the role of NAPC in answering challenges in each sector,

02:00do you have any flagship programs or rights that you are assisting

02:05and will give priority to the sector of formal labor for migrant workers?

02:10All 14 sectors have their own sectoral agenda.

02:15There are many.

02:17In formal labor, of course, their number one priority is decent work

02:25and the regularization of our contract of service workers, COS,

02:33so that they can have a decent job.

02:37The 13 other sectors also have their own agenda

02:42to address the poverty of their respective sectors.

02:48Cauper, when were the simultaneous 4th quarter regular meetings and other sectoral engagements

02:55held by the 14 basic sectoral councils and the 17 regional basic sector coordinating councils of NAPC?

03:01What were the issues that were discussed regarding the assistance?

03:05This last quarter meeting is very important.

03:11Every quarter, there is a sectoral council meeting of the 14 basic sectors.

03:17Here, first, we assessed the whole year of our operation.

03:24Here, we saw that we were pushed and there is still a lot to be done.

03:32During that time, we held a bilateral meeting with our partner government agencies.

03:39Because every sector has its own partner agencies.

03:43There, we discussed what assistance can be provided by the government and the basic sector.

03:52We also made a platform because the National Anti-Poverty Commission

03:59only has a national office.

04:03It does not have a local office.

04:07That is why we created a Regional Basic Sector Coordinating Council

04:12where all the sectoral councils in the 14 basic sectors within the region also come together

04:20and discuss regional issues.

04:24We localize the national issues that are discussed here in the National Council.

04:31You mentioned the bilateral meeting.

04:34How is the 14 basic sectors in NAPC?

04:43How is its engagement?

04:45We are happy for the last two years

04:50since Secretary Lopez Santos assumed his office as lead convener.

04:55We have a lot of talks in the government sector.

04:59There are a lot of TAU-TWG meetings.

05:03Each sector facilitates its own agenda in each partner agency.

05:10That is why we think NAPC's engagement in the government sector is good.

05:19You are the vice chairperson of the basic sector.

05:24What do you think are the successes of the 14 basic sectors including NAPC this year?

05:32Yes.

05:33One of the mandates of the President is that NAPC should go to remote areas

05:44to look for the poor and find out their problems

05:50and bring them to the local government and national government agencies.

05:55That is one of our goals.

05:57We think we succeeded in bringing local government units together.

06:05We are now starting to formulate the Local Poverty Reduction Action Plan.

06:15To achieve that, we are forming a Local Poverty Reduction Action Committee or council

06:22that is formed by the government and the basic sectors within the localities.

06:29We think that is a success.

06:33Aside from our legislative proposals,

06:37we are now discussing with both houses of Congress

06:44and there is already a law.

06:47For example, the Magna Carta for Children.

06:51Those are the agendas that we pushed.

06:56You sent a letter to President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.

07:01asking him to strengthen his support for the goal of reducing poverty in our country.

07:09Can you explain the content of the letter?

07:13Yes.

07:14As I said earlier, the President told us to look for the poor.

07:22His goal is to reduce poverty from 18% to single-digit by the end of his term.

07:33And of course, we are the poor.

07:35We are the main beneficiaries of this.

07:38That is why we immediately sent a letter of thanks

07:43and to strengthen our support for his goal.

07:49We also said that it is right for the Secretary of NAPC to appoint him

07:58because we can see his dedication and his great help

08:03for our sectoral agendas to be pushed.

08:08We think this is the way to reduce poverty.

08:13Thank you very much, Mr. Opar.

08:15Thank you very much, Mr. Opar.

08:16NAPC's programs have helped us a lot

08:19to reduce our poverty rate to single-digit at the end of the administration of our beloved President.

08:28We should really focus on the needs of the 14 basic sectors.

08:33Thank you for your efforts to address the needs of these sectors.

08:39Again, thank you very much, Mr. Opar.

08:40Thank you for your help to us

08:44because because of you, we are able to find more information that the public needs to know.

08:51And of course, it is our duty, especially our President.

08:56Like now, one of our calls is that the President should appoint

09:03the sectoral representatives of the 14 basic sectors

09:07because it has been one year since we had the National Sectoral Assembly

09:12and until now, we are still waiting for someone to replace us

09:17to lead the 14 sectoral councils.

09:21Okay, we'll look into that development.

09:24Again, thank you very much for joining us here in Rise and Shine Philippines.

09:30Thank you, sir.

National Anti-Poverty Commission, patuloy ang mga programa at aksyon para tugunan ang mga hamon sa mga batayang sector sa bansa!
