It’s
the turn of the House of Representatives to do the selfless act as what they
should do everyday being in the service of public service.
House
Speaker Alan Peter Cayetano announced that almost 200 lawmakers will donate
their full salary for the month of May and raise P50 million to help the
government in fighting the novel coronavirus 2019 disease or COVID-19 crisis in
the country.
“Almost
200 congressmen will donate our full sweldo ng May. Ang initial target ay P50
million,” Cayetano said in a virtual press conference when asked if Congressmen
will also donate salaries for the COVID-19 fight fund just like what the
Cabinet members earlier did.

“We want to use the money where it
will be most effective,” he added.
Cayetano said they are ready to make another donation if the crisis continues up to June.
“May muna pinagusapan namin, hopefully hindi umabot ng June pero ‘pag umabot pa, then we will make a second call,” he said.
(We only thought of donating salary
for May and hopefully the crisis will not continue until June but if it will,
then we will make a second call.)
