‘Food stamp program to help feed the poor’

Iloilo Rep. Janette Garin has lauded the implementation of Food Stamp Program of the administration of President Marcos, saying it would ensure that every poor family will have something on the table.

She also said the program would not only alleviate the plight of Filipino families, but also help farmers and small entrepreneurs as the aid that would be given will be only purchased from accredited retailers. Meanwhile, Garin said the program might not be enough at present, but it would possibly increase to provide greater assistance to Filipino families.
