A House leader is seeking a three-month extension of the special powers granted to President Rodrigo Duterte to address the coronavirus pandemic under the Bayanihan to Heal as One Act. | deejayapINQ

The law also authorized him to provide an emergency subsidy to around 18 million low-income households, amounting “to a minimum of P5,000 to P8,000 a month for two months … computed based on the prevailing regional minimum wage rates.”

“Such powers are good for three months. Unfortunately, two months after the effectivity of the law, the end to the pandemic is not yet in sight,” said Rodriguez, chair of the House constitutional amendments committee. He noted that new COVID-19 positive cases were still being reported every day “and the country is not yet fully operating.”For more news about the novel coronavirus clickFor more information on COVID-19, call the DOH Hotline: 86517800 local 1149/1150.

deejayapINQ SP wtf is there really an impact of that,your trolls on both senate and congress knew how angered citizen you govern our nation.extension means ewan

deejayapINQ No use if incompetent ang bigyan ng special power.

deejayapINQ What ?

deejayapINQ No.

deejayapINQ May special powers na pala

deejayapINQ Teka.. What did his emergency powers do that really helped our country during covid? May difference ba

deejayapINQ Rufus: ... $$$&$1 Me: (sings club scene song early late 90’s) p0tng 4x....

deejayapINQ Stop nonsense emergency law. Extend ECQ lang alam ng gobyernong ito.

deejayapINQ No.

deejayapINQ I don't think this is necessary.

deejayapINQ tss..🐘💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

deejayapINQ madami ng asar sa style ng pres Pray for the Philippines

deejayapINQ Presidente kung mag speech napasiga panay naman hingi. Hingi ng tulong sa private sectors, hingi ng emergency powers, hingi ng volunteers pero salamat Xi

deejayapINQ Wala na. Lokohan na talaga 'to. Ayawan na talaga.

deejayapINQ What the hell did you do when you were granted special powers in the first place? Not a lot of help!

deejayapINQ Ang malas natin pag pati ang pwesto nya i extend pa🤮

deejayapINQ Facepalm🤦‍♂🤦‍♂🤦‍♂🤦‍♂

deejayapINQ 'We are winning the war against Covid-19' di ba? Kung gusto talaga ng extension, dapat may concrete plans and objectives muna at kung sinu-sino ang responsible.

deejayapINQ And after 3 months— Bahala nanaman ang plano?

deejayapINQ walang tigil na extension.

deejayapINQ U L O L

deejayapINQ Akala ko ba we are already winning the war against covid19? So bakit kailangan ng extension?

deejayapINQ What the hell for?

deejayapINQ Hahaha! Ampota talaga. Wala naman nangyari nung binigay sa kanya yung powers ni Enteng Kabisote. Kinulong lang ang mga tao pero wala namang effort para hanapin ang mga carrier ng virus. Dumami lalo ang mga kaso dahil sa local transmission😂😁

deejayapINQ Okay na sguro yung 3 months hanetchi? Mauubos ang kaban nang bayan kapag nagextend pa

deejayapINQ Before such a thing is granted, government officials better ask themselves first: Did granting Duterte special powers do anything to help resolve this situation? From what I see, it did nothing. And other officials have also shown that such special powers are not needed to act.

deejayapINQ Emergency powers ahould not be extended unless the alleged corruption at the DOH is duly investigated, besides it has not helped the country in its efforts against the pandemic

deejayapINQ Gawin na hanggang end of the year 2020. Para ma safe.

deejayapINQ HAHAHAHAHHA. Joke time! DDShit

deejayapINQ para que?

deejayapINQ For what? Me nangyari ba sa ilang buwang paglockdown? Wala nga kayong kaplano plano pra s mass testing, tracing at tulong pra s mga tao at SMEs, para saan pa ang extension ng special powers? Pwede bang maging efficient at capable muna kayong gobyerno.

deejayapINQ

deejayapINQ Ay ginamit ba yung una? 🙄

deejayapINQ no way, naka more than 2 months na tayo evh hanggang ngayon walang plano si duterte? pati nasaan na ang 275billion plus? panagutin na

deejayapINQ ano ba ang point ng special powers kung wala namang nangyayari. 2 months of those and no mass testing. what can we expect from 3 more
