@ensaymeowda @leemkhaech True. If you are seeing corruption tapos wala ka naman ginagawa to report them, then complicate siya.
English
@leemkhaech Edi isumbong mo silang lahat sa dswd ganyan pala. HAHAHAH
Filipino
Your tita is not the only 4Ps recipient.
At kung galit na galit ka sa mga 4Ps, edi bakit di mo ireport? :)
faye 🍀@leemkhaech
they're not closely monitored :) my aunt is part of the 4Ps dahil para sa anak nya supposedly yung money para mapag-aral. but in reality, yung anak ay di na nagaaral at may sariling pamilya na. but sa records, student pa rin.
Filipino
@rupertnotholmes For example, 4Ps also incentivize farmer parents to make sure that their children really goes to school. In rural areas, many children would be helping their parents sa bukid, often neglecting their studies, this program wants to end that.
English
A few things, Christine:
1. Many 4Ps recipients have jobs contrary to what's hurriedly implied all the time. The problem is that, one, they are typically employed in low-paying, informal, or unstable work; and two, they don't earn enough to afford most basic needs. To borrow your words, it's not about not knowing how or not being willing to fish; it's about working and still having so little to live on.
2. Student ka kamo. Bakit ka nag-aaral? Di ba para magkaroon ng stable future? That's the point of the education aspect of 4Ps. Add that to health requisites (vaccinate children and ensure their good health) and family development sessions, they all help ensure families become self-sufficient in the long run, and their life of poverty and inequality are less likely to be passed from one generation to the next.
3. 4Ps "graduates" are linked to further support through initiatives like DSWD’s Sustainable Livelihood Program, so that they keep their gains and not return to subsistence.
christine@tine_undergrad
@rupertnotholmes would've been better if trabaho/pangkabuhayan package nalang binibigay sa kanila, that way mas masasabing "self-sufficient" sila and one time help lang. Sabi nga, teach people how to fish at habang buhay nilang madadala yon
English
@radikalmagmahal @lovenosh143 True. Ito problem eh, yong may nakikita daw silang umaabuso, pero wala naman silang ginagawa to report and make sure na matanggal yong lumalabag sa conditions, tapos magrereklamo dito!? Haha
Filipino
@lovenosh143 Ireport nyo na lang sa mswd pag may alam kayong nagsusugal at nagbibisyo kasii bawal yan sa 4ps. Pwede sila tanggalin sa program.
Filipino
@larcenblack @lovenosh143 Ito ang di nila gets. Parents are forced/incentivized to send their children to go to school and maintain attendance, kasi otherwise mas malaki possibility na isasama ng magulang sa mga sakahan/bukid mga anak nila to work instead of making them to go to school.
Filipino
@lovenosh143 masakit sa ulo, not worth the overhead managing it to minimize some irresponsible parents, ndi naman lahat. It doesn't really matter if they waste the money as long as they are forced to send their children to school so they don't become trouble maker in the future
English
@lovenosh143 Conditional yong cash transfer, dapat nag-aaral ang mga anak and yong attendance sa pag-aaral ay monitored and parents must attend family development sessions. So parents are incentivized to make their children go to school instead of making them work for the family.

Rest in peace Sister Eva.
EWTN News@EWTNews
Sister Eva Fidela Maamo, a Catholic nun and surgeon known across the Philippines as the “Healing Nun” for her decades of free medical care to the poor, has died at age 85. She died on April 14, according to Our Lady of Peace Hospital, which announced her passing the following day. In the 1970s, Sister Eva performed surgery on an Indigenous woman using a bamboo table and coconut water to keep the patient alive in Lake Sebu, southern Philippines. The urgent action was necessary because reaching the nearest hospital required hours on foot and crossing multiple rivers. Her life of service and sacrifice made a deep impact on people, particularly the poor who most availed themselves of the nunʼs medical and pastoral care. “I remember her vividly during my years as an intern and resident at Manila Doctors Hospital, attending to her patients,” said Dr. Anthony Leachon, a physician. “Her quiet strength, her devotion to the sick and the poor, and her example of servant leadership shaped not only the lives of those she treated but also the young physicians who learned under her guidance,” he added. Sister Eva was born on Sept. 17, 1940, in Liloan, Southern Leyte. She studied at the Velez College of Medicine in Cebu, central Philippines, and practiced at her familyʼs clinic in Liloan for a while. Later, she entered the Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres to be a nun and missionary in 1974, serving as a physician in Lake Sebu and later in other parts of the country. One of her steadfast beliefs was that health is a right for all, not a privilege for a few. Being a surgeon, she did not limit herself to an operating room. She visited public hospitals, communities, and places with very limited access to health care. Sister Evaʼs role went beyond that of a physician who is meant to treat illnesses; she made sure to work for peopleʼs dignity — interacting with patients where they lived, seeing their existential realities. “In this way, she showed the human face of healing and care while witnessing Godʼs mercy,” Maria Martineze, a volunteer, told EWTN News. The nunʼs quiet and consistent commitment tried to abridge the existing gap — need and access to health but also working for inclusion and peopleʼs right to access health, Martineze explained. She trained “barefoot doctors” — men and women skilled to treat common illnesses and provide basic care in remote and rural areas where accessing health care has always remained a challenge. According to Sister Eva, the “barefoot doctors” are not physicians, but they are skilled at treating common diseases. Sister Eva trained 17 barefoot doctors in Lake Sebu in 1974. Over the years, she expanded the initiative across the country, training 274 barefoot doctors from 110 Indigenous communities. Sister Eva had a distinctive character — going to the peripheries — as a missionary and a doctor. In her heart, she had special love for Indigenous peoples and geographically and socially isolated communities in the country, including the Tʼboli, Aeta, and Manobo. She trained them in basic medical skills like CPR, physical exams, and minor surgery, empowering them to become health providers for their tribes. One of the Indigenous peoples, the Aeta, displaced by the Mount Pinatubo eruption in 1991, was cared for by the nun. The nun worked with them for years, capacitating the leaders and community, strengthening their dignity, resilience, and physical well-being. With her efforts, as many as 146 families with 500 persons were able to resettle. Some eventually converted to Catholicism. “She spent her life in healing and service with compassion and love for Indigenous people,” Lourdes Balinta, an Aeta teacher, told EWTN News. The Foundation of Our Lady of Peace Mission was established in 1984 by Sister Eva and American Jesuit Father James Reuter to address the needs of the poor. Additionally, in 1992, Our Lady of Peace Hospital, Parañaque, Metro Manila, was built to provide the poor with affordable access to quality health care, including feeding and livelihood programs for the poor in Metro Manila and other areas. “Through her foundation and hospital, she brought healing, dignity, and hope to countless marginalized communities across the Philippines, offering free medical care, shelter, and livelihood opportunities,” a message from Ramon Magsaysay Award Foundation said. “Small in stature but immense in spirit, Sister Evaʼs life stands as a powerful witness to Gospel compassion lived out in action,” it added. Sister Evaʼs life was marked by extraordinary compassion and service to the poor, embodying the Christian spirit of selfless love and dedication, Bishop Precioso D. Cantillas of Maasin said. Her tireless work as a healer and advocate for the marginalized was a profound witness to her faith in Christ and love for humanity, he added. The remarkable legacy she leaves behind — her ministry and compassion — touched countless lives. “May her example keep motivating us to live lives of service and faithfulness to Godʼs mission,” the prelate said. In 1997, Sister Eva received the Ramon Magsaysay Award, often considered Asiaʼs Nobel Prize, for her dedicated service to the poor communities through medicine. In 1992, she received the Mother Teresa Award of the Philippines. In 2006, the nun was recognized as a Lasallian Star of Faith awardee, recognizing her decades of dedicated service as a nun and surgeon whose life epitomized faith in service. Though Sister Eva has passed, her legacy remains in the hearts of people. “She was a hardworking, humble, and caring woman of God — a physician-leader whose hands healed and whose heart uplifted countless lives,” Leachon said. “Multi-awarded yet always grounded, she embodied the true spirit of service.” “Her life reminds us that medicine is not only science but also love in action,” he added. “May her memory continue to inspire generations of healers and advocates. Her light endures in the lives she touched.” ewtnnews.com/world/asia-pac…

@kentopias This is true. Instead of looking down, why not look up and direct their anger towards the people in powers and the billionaires who exploits people. Ang hirap kasi they are directing their anger towards those people who they thought are beneath them, which is very matapobre.

4Ps are not the reason our bill is higher. Hndi 4ps ang nag draft ng policies o nag decide how funds are distributed.
Theyre surviving, day by day, with what little support they can get.
If anything, the frustration should toward systems that pass the burden sa ordinaryo. Why are we paying extra instead of seeing our taxes work?

Congratulations, Engr. Rico Elao! 👏✨
Rico is a monitored child of the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) from Alegria, Cebu who ranked first in the 2026 Civil Engineering Board Exam.
Patunay ang tagumpay na ito ni Rico sa konkretong naitutulong ng 4Ps sa mga pamilyang mas nangangailangan; sa pagbibigay sa kanila ng pag-asa at kakayahan na maitaguyod ang magandang kinabukasan.
Sa pamamagitan ng naisabatas nating 4Ps Law (RA 11310) bilang principal author at ng panukala nating palawakin at palakasin pa ang programa (HB No. 1434), hangad natin na marami pang pamilyang Pilipino ang mapapaunlad ang kakayahan, makakaahon sa kahirapan, at produktibong makaambag sa lipunan.
Congratulations again, Rico! Ang tagumpay mo at ng marami pang 4Ps beneficiaries ay tagumpay ng buong bansa. Patuloy sana kayong maging inspirasyon hindi lang ng pagsisikap para maabot ang pangarap, kundi pati na rin sa pagtulong sa iba pang nangangailangan.

@easy_jonathan The second point is kinda hypocritical tho.

Probably the same reason they went with Leody or Isko instead of Leni because they think Leni is full of herself or whatever.
Or becaue they don’t like Kakampinks kasi “holier than thou” daw sila. Pero mismong sila, ganun.
“Gumuho na ang Pinas, basta gago mga Kakampink” ganern.

So rumors are making the rounds that a major Philippine real estate firm - one of the oldest - is facing financial difficulties on P300B ($5B) of “exposure” (likely debt related to poorly performing projects). This article suggests issues are isolated to this firm. But from what I’m hearing, issues are more wide-spread. While still not reaching alarming levels, there’s definitely stress on the balance sheet of local property firms. A looming recession will be the test of their mettle. Lots gorged on debt driven expansion over the past 5 years.
