NCR distributes 94% of ayuda

By Pearl Gumapos

The Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) on Wednesday (Sept. 1) announced that, as of yesterday (Aug. 31), the distribution of financial aid in the National Capital Region (NCR) has reached 94.73%.

“Base po sa mga reports ng local government units as of yesterday, 94.73% na ang ating napamigay na ayuda sa ating mga kababayan which represents 10,663,537 actual recipients,” DILG Undersecretary Jonathan Malaya said during the Laging Handa public briefing.

“Ito na po ang pinakamabilis na pamimigay ng ayuda mula noong nagsimula tayo mamigay nito,” Malaya said.

Among the local government units that finished distributing their financial aid are Quezon City, Metro Manila, Caloocan, Pasig, Malabon, and Navotas.

“5% nalang po ang hindi nila napapamigay. Mayroon pang konting panahon ang ating mga kababayan na nasa listahan na tumungo sa mga LGUs para sa kanilang ayuda.

According to Malaya, LGUs now have the right to thoroughly review the grievance claims of their residents.

“Since mayroon po tayong mga unclaimed na ayuda sa ilang mga LGUs, ay mayroon nang pagkakataon ngayon na mabigyan sila [ng ayuda]. In other words, ‘yung mga nag grievance [claim], sila na po ang priority,” Malaya said. – bny
