Kiko Pangilinan demands from Duterte: Where is the money? PPEs, food packs? Plan?

Opposition senator and current Party President of the Liberal Party Senator Francis “Kiko” Pangilinan is asking the Duterte administration “Where is the plan?.”

Pangilinan is inquiring about the status or progress of the Duterte administration with regard to government efforts to combat the novel coronavirus 2019 or COVID-19 outbreak nearly a week after the passage of the Bayanihan Law.

The Bayanihan law was specifically created to combat COVID-19, it gives the Philippine President extra powers to stop the spread of the new virus which came from Wuhan, China. It also obligates the President to submit a weekly progress report to Congress.

“It’s been five days since the emergency powers, and as required by law, IATF needs to submit to Congress and effectively to the people a progress report every week. Where is the money? PPEs, food packs? Plan?” Pangilinan said in a Facebook post.

Pangilinan is also interested to know how the Duterte administration spent the funds for its response against COVID-19. He also sought an update on the Personal Protective Equipment for health workers as well as the food assistance for poor families.

“We’re almost halfway in our enhanced community quarantine, at katulad ng nabanggit natin sa ating pahayag nang ipasa ng Senado itong batas na ito, gusto nating makita na ipinapatupad ang batas at inilalaan ang pondo nang ayon dito at gaya ng inaasahan,” he said.
