Cayetano clarifies 10K cash aid per family still a proposal

MANILA – Senator Alan Peter Cayetano has clarified that providing PHP10,000 cash aid to every household is merely a legislative proposal and would be one of the priority bills that he intends to file as soon as the 19th Congress convenes.

He noted that it differs from the privately financed “Sampung Libong Pag-asa” (Ten Thousand Hopes) initiative, which delivered PHP10,000 cash to select beneficiaries and highlighted a crucial component of his economic recovery plan to assist families in acquiring basic necessities.

Sa mga namba-bash sa 10K ayuda (aid), kung kaya ko lang silang bigyan ng tig-sasampung libo, binigay ko na sa kanila. Pero sa katotohanan ito’y isang legislative proposal (To the bashers of 10K subsidy, if only I can provide them with PHP10,000 each, I would give it to them. But the fact is this is still a legislative proporal),” he said during the oath-taking ceremony of Taguig City officials on Thursday, including his wife, Mayor Lani Cayetano

“So ang hinihingi ko po doon sa mga tumutuligsa sa programang Sampung Libong Pag-asa (So, to those who are criticizing the Ten Thousand Hopes program) during the pandemic, tumulong na lang kayo (just help),” he added.

The Cayetano couple filed House Bill No. 8597 or the “10K Ayuda” bill during the 18th Congress, a financial aid program that will distribute PHP10,000 to every Filipino family or PHP1,500 per family member.

The bill that sought inclusion in the Bayanihan 3 Covid-19 aid package or the PHP5-trillion 2022 budget was denied in Congress.
