Senator Francis Pangilinan on Thursday called on the government to shoulder the swab tests for all inbound passengers, especially returning Filipinos.

In a statement, Pangilinan said people are already financially struggling amid the COVID-19 pandemic. He also accused private companies and their"corrupt backers in government" of profiting from the swab test requirement.

[Translation: It would be better if the government shoulder the swab tests of all inbound passengers, especially our OFWs, so it would lessen their financial burden.]
