00:00The SSS brought their programs and services closer to the Filipinos
00:05through the launch of the SSS Nationwide Caravan today.
00:10That was Benji Durango's surprise.
00:15I forgot my number.
00:17He asked Jomar for his SSS number.
00:21But he forgot it, so he had to walk.
00:24Instead of going to the SSS Diliman Branch,
00:27he was taught here in front of the Quezon City Hall
00:29for his simple transaction.
00:31I'll just verify my SSS.
00:33The SSS distributed 165 off-site locations
00:37for the existing members
00:39who have connections to their positions.
00:41Aside from their branches,
00:43the SSS also placed e-wheels
00:45in prominent places throughout the country
00:47including the NCR.
00:49That's why Clinice, who also didn't have time
00:51to go to the head office of the SSS,
00:53went here to Quezon City.
00:55I got robbed.
00:57Today, the SSS Nationwide Caravan
00:59where the SSS brought people closer
01:01to their positions.
01:03In the NCR, they targeted 8 prominent locations.
01:05Aside from regular transactions,
01:07the SSS also allowed
01:09500,000 new accounts
01:11from the ages of 15 and above
01:13to join.
01:15It's really important
01:17for people to be pensioned
01:19because it's important for them to grow old.
01:21It's up to them to decide
01:24Imagine, you don't have any income,
01:26you've been working for 30-40 years,
01:28your eyesight is weak,
01:30and you don't have a job
01:32even if you're sick.
01:34That's not right.
01:36More than 40 million Filipinos
01:38are members of the SSS.
01:40Most of them are in the working sector.
01:42They also wanted self-employed
01:44and ordinary citizens
01:46to be pensioned
01:48through the SSS.
01:504 million new members
01:52to cover the entire population.
01:54All the job orders,
01:56for example, in Quezon City,
01:5812,000 job orders
02:00are not from the SSS.
02:02In Tarlac,
02:043,000.
02:06In Manila, 6,000.
02:08So we're encouraging them
02:10to become members.
02:12It's important for them
02:14to grow old.
02:16They announced several programs
02:18like the Pension Booster
02:21to help retirees
02:23and to waive the penalty
02:25for debts that are still unpaid.
02:27We will guarantee that everybody
02:29will have a pension
02:31that they can count on.
02:33The cry for forever
02:35in the SSS.
