President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. mentioned his administration will maintain its deal with offering individuals jobs and alternatives to earn, saying Filipinos need livelihood not dole outs.
“Ang ugali ng Pilipino ayaw nila ng umaasa at basta’t nag-aantay na lang ng ayuda, nag-aantay na lang ng TUPAD (Tulong Panghanapbuhay sa Ating Disadvantaged/Displaced Workers), nag aantay na lang ng AICS (Assistance to Individuals in Crisis Situations),” Marcos said in his latest vlog.
“Mas maganda para sa bawat Pilipino na sila ay nagtatrabaho, na meron silang inaasahang kikitain at meron silang pag-asa na gumanda pa ang kanilang hanabuhay,” he added.
The president continued, “Ganyan talag ang Filipino mentality, mas gusto nilang magtrabaho kaysa na umasa na lang sa ayuda.”
He touted government projects including the consolidated rice production and mechanization program in South Cotabato, which he said are targeted to improve farming production and subsequently, lower food prices.
He also said some government agencies distributed assistance that provided not only financial aid but also livelihood support to the people.
“Ito ay hindi lang ayuda na salapi kund ayuda na pagkakataon para sa mamamayang Pilipino,” Marcos mentioned.—LDF, GMA Integrated News
