Duterte orders DSWD, DILG to distribute cash aid in ‘disorganized’ LGUs

By Prince Golez

President Rodrigo Duterte has instructed the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) and the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) to take over the distribution of cash aid in some areas in Metro Manila.

In his televised address late Monday, Duterte lamented the disorganized distribution of financial assistance to those affected by the implementation of the most restrictive enhanced community quarantine.

“I ordered your department (DILG) and itong [DSWD] na kayo na ang magbigay ng mga ayuda pati ‘yung mga kung anong maitulong sa national government sa local government units na walang alam, na hindi marunong mag-organize ng mga distribution and it only results in disorder,” the Chief Executive said.

“Kayo na muna hanggang matuto sila. Nakita naman ninyo, it’s on TV and all, na wala talagang kaalam-alam itong mga mayor na ‘to,” he added.

Duterte did not name the LGUs but hinted that “there’s only one [in] Metro Manila.”

“It has happened several times and several times he has blamed other people other than himself,” he said.
