MANILA - The government has distributed financial assistance to 92.45 percent of beneficiaries in Metro Manila and 4 neighboring provinces affected by the reimposition of hard lockdown, the Department of the Interior and Local Government said.
"Sa natitirang isang linggo, sisiguraduhin po natin maipapamigay ang lahat ng ayuda at matugunan ang lahat ng reklamo, complaint at apela sa ating grievance and appeals committee," he said. In March, the so-called NCR Plus was placed under hard lockdown to limit public movement as part of efforts to stem fresh coronavirus infections. The measure was extended in April.
