A leader of the House minority on Monday called on President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr. and Vice President Sara Duterte to forego the proposed confidential fund allocations for their respective offices in 2023 and have these realigned for cash aid to those in need.
"Kung talagang may concern sila lalo sa mga pinakamahihirap na sektor ng ating lipunan, dapat ay ibigay na nina President Marcos Jr at Vice President Duterte ang kanilang confidential and intelligence funds sa ayuda," Castro said. The 2023 proposed CIF for the Department of Education is also at P150 million, although the Senate has since realigned P152 million worth of agencies’ CIF to its maintenance and other operating expenses .The House of Representatives and the Senate are still reconciling their differing versions of the proposed P5.26 trillion budget for 2023, with the House realigning P77 billion and the Senate reallocating as much as P215 billion.
Naaddict na sa cash aid ang mga politicians natin. Madali kasing macorrupt! Parang pera kasi nila pinamamahagi nila… masakit dyan mahirap ma-audit dahil sa liit nang amount at sa dami “daw” nang nabigyan! Un pala kanya-kanya nang bulsa 🤑
House Deputy Minority Leader France Castro of the ACT Teachers party list said Marcos and Sara's combined confidential and intelligence fund allocations under the proposed P5.26-trillion national budget may instead benefit 500,000 poorest families given P10,000 each. [2/2]
