Cash Aid for Poor Filipinos Might Have Another Round amid High Inflation, DOF Reveals

DOF Speaks on Cash Aid for Poor Filipinos amid High Inflation Rate

CASH AID FOR POOR FILIPINOS – The Department of Finance revealed that there might be another “ayuda” for the poor Filipinos amid the high inflation.

The Filipinos are currently faced with the problem of high prices of goods and commodities in the country. The inflation rate, the speed by which the prices of goods and services go on an upward trend, continues to increase for more than a year now. Many Filipinos appeal to the government as their usual monthly budget could no longer provide for the needs of their families.

Undeniably, a lot of Filipinos families have yet to recover to the impacts of the pandemic and are still facing financial struggles after losing their jobs and acquiring debts that continuously increased for several months.

Recently, the Department of Finance announced a good news for the poor Filipinos in the country. There might be another round of cash aid for poor Filipinos.

Based on a report on ABS-CBN News, Finance Secretary Benjamin Diokno announced that there might be another round of cash aid for poor Filipinos amid the high inflation rate in the Philippines now. According to the Finance Secretary, the the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) is planning to implement a 2-month extension in its Targeted Cash Transfer (TCT) program.

According to Diokno, the planned cash assistance for poor Pinoys amid the high inflation rate in the country “is for the poorest of the poor” and not necessarily for the members of the 4Ps, the anti-poverty program in the country. Meanwhile, while the cash transfer is not necessarily for the 4Ps members, the Finance Secretary expressed that there might be 4Ps members who will receive the cash transfer.

Based on the report, instead of Php 500.00, the beneficiaries of the cash transfer program will get Php 1,000.00. The program costs P9.3 billion so 9.3 million Filipinos will be beneficiaries of the program.

As of this writing, there were no other details about the cash transfer program released. More updates may be posted soon.
