Several local governments took to social media to lament the “quota system” supposedly being imposed in the distribution of the social amelioration funds for low-income households.
Each city or municipality will be given a fixed amount from the P200-billion fund under the quota system, local officials said. “We have an appeals system in place na you can refer to or you can go to appeal to the DSWD and the national government kung meron bang mga sa palagay ninyo na hindi naisama na kailangan isama dahil sila naman ay qualified,” Nograles said.
The government has set aside P200 billion cash aid to be distributed to about 18 million low-income families.The amount, ranging from P5,000 to P8,000, to be distributed to the beneficiaries will depend on the minimum wage in their respective regions.
