“That is not only for Odette response but it includes all kinahanglanon nato gastuon, especially sa COVID because we are facing not only one, but two situations nga kinahanglan nato nga i-address and COVID is not really a matter nga which we can take lightly. So we need to appropriate funds mao to nag realign ta and then gi supplement nato,” said Seno.
