He said that the PWDs had been waiting for their financial assistance for quite some time now since the city government focused first on the release of the financial assistance to the senior citizens.Even the senior citizens’ financial assistance distribution last March 2021 was also delayed because the personnel of the City Treasurers Office were busy handling the permit renewals of establishments from January to February 2021.
