00:00According to the Senate, there is no proper list of beneficiaries of aid to the Kapos Angkita Program or AKAP.

00:09Aside from that, there is also information from a mayor that the amount of aid given to some beneficiaries is reduced.

00:16Ian Cruz has the first news.

00:22According to the Senate on aid to the Kapos Angkita Program or AKAP of the government,

00:27it was released that it is not yet clear who will be the AKAP beneficiaries

00:33that should be given to those who earn less than the minimum wage.

00:37There is no list of minimum wage earners now.

00:40And this is the target of AKAP, but it is not clear who they are.

00:45But as far as I know, there is a process on how to find out who they are.

00:50But it is still true. It will still apply. It will still be approved.

00:55But for now, it is still unclear because there is no name yet.

00:58It is clear that there are no names yet.

01:01The difference this year is that the names of the recipients of AKAP will be released every month in each province.

01:09But Retired Senior Associate Justice Antonio Carpio, who was also invited to the hearing,

01:14said that the names should not be released to the beneficiaries of AKAP.

01:18DSWD should upload in its website the list of beneficiaries under AKAP

01:27and opposite the name will be the amount actually received.

01:33And a third column, the person who recommended the beneficiary.

01:40If it turns out that the only members of Congress recommended,

01:48then that will violate the prohibition that the congressmen can only appropriate but cannot implement

01:57because the implementation belongs to the executive branch.

02:00DSWD will say in their leadership that Carpio is a liar.

02:05Baguio City Mayor Benjamin Magalong said that the LGUs are laughing at the hearing.

02:10He also got information that the beneficiary is already receiving less aid.

02:17Another source of corruption is these funds that are in their discretion.

02:24According to other mayors, they are surprised that the beneficiaries signed blank.

02:33Because most of them will just sign.

02:35Only to find out that what was given to them is 3,000, they will just report that it is only 5,000.

02:40The agencies of the government did not respond to the hearing, but we asked them for their reaction.

02:47In the pastoral letter of CBCP issued by their president, Pablo Virgilio Cardinal David,

02:56they admitted that the misuse of public funds is shameful

03:01and that they are in doubt about the increase, decrease, and adjustment of the national budget.

03:06And the programs against poverty that hide the corruption in the culture of patronage and corruption are truly disturbing.

03:16According to Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin,

03:19it should be remembered that the President directly approved the largest appropriation in history.

03:25There are strict conditions for the issuance of the budget

03:28to ensure the priority and protection of the partisan interest.

03:33This is the first news, Ian Cruz for GMA Integrated News.

03:49Thanks for watching.
