00:00 The distribution of food stamps has already started.
00:05 Under the Food Stamp Program of the government.
00:08 But you can't buy any food from the Kadiwa Store.
00:12 Oscar Oida is targeting that.
00:14 Ms. Maribik, who set up the Kadiwa Store in Pretel, Tondo, Manila,
00:23 as a beneficiary of the Food Stamp Program of the DSWD and the World Food Program of the United Nations,
00:30 was given an Electronic Benefit Transfer or EBT card.
00:34 This includes the load that can only be bought from the Kadiwa Store.
00:38 The food cost is up to P3,000 per month.
00:42 Ms. Maribik thought of a shopping list.
00:45 Carnipol and rice.
00:47 Why?
00:48 Because the price of rice has increased.
00:54 So I want to buy rice.
00:56 But it's not allowed.
00:58 According to the program's rules,
01:00 there is a limit to what can be bought from each food group or food type.
01:05 It's P1,500 for carbohydrates like rice,
01:10 P900 for protein like meat,
01:13 and P600 for vegetables and fruits.
01:17 I thought that the P3,000 that was given was for meat.
01:24 When I went there, I saw that it's for all.
01:30 So that when they prepare food at home,
01:34 the nutrition of the food they get is complete and balanced.
01:39 Are you okay with that, Ms. Maribik?
01:41 It's necessary for the children to be healthy so that when they grow up...
01:48 The beneficiaries of the Nutrition Education Seminar also joined in before the purchase.
01:53 So that we can give the right guidance on choosing the food that we will cook in our homes.
02:01 Before, we only buy what is budget-friendly.
02:05 If it's not budget-friendly, it's not.
02:07 This is really balanced.
02:09 A reminder from DSWD,
02:11 non-transferable or non-useable EBT cards can be verified using the owner's registered fingerprint.
02:20 The pilot stage of the program will last for six months,
02:24 for the chosen beneficiaries.
02:27 But it plans to make it easier for the so-called 1 million poorest households in the country.
02:35 For GMA Integrated News, Oscar Oida,
02:38 Stay tuned for 24 Hours.
