00:00Meanwhile, Kamalax is talking to politicians not to get involved in giving aid, especially now that the election is nearing, 2025.
00:09It's hard for them to stop, according to one agency, but they can urge, according to another.
00:14Sergio Aguinaldo is on the line.
00:16Aid under the Tupad for those who lost their jobs, or help for those who have money but it's under the AKAP.
00:29There are also aid for those who need help in giving shelter and other things.
00:34The Commission on Elections in Kamalax does not agree with these, but they hope that no one will get involved in giving aid, especially now that the 2025 midterm elections are nearing.
00:47The implementation of the Tupad requires a clear resolution that will not be used in the campaign.
00:57Not because a politician or a candidate wants you to be excluded, you should not be included.
01:04But the Labour Department says that it is against the distribution of the Tupad.
01:09It is not easy to prohibit politicians from participating in the payout of aid.
01:14That is one of the challenges of the Department of Labour and Employment.
01:17Most of the constituencies of our politicians and local government officials are in their areas.
01:26We don't have strict regulations on prohibiting them if they are allowed to pass through and show up there.
01:36We are just trying to avoid the politics of giving benefits.
01:44The Social Welfare Department also agreed that politicians are allowed to distribute aid, sometimes to congressmen, sometimes to local officials.
01:55If there are presence of our partners, our legislators, that is an exercise of their oversight functions.
02:05In some activities, we have local partners who are present, primarily because they extend assistance to the DSWD.
02:16They lend us their covered court, their security, the local police.
02:25It can be criticized if the aid is used for politics.
02:29If you see that there is something wrong, then report it.
02:35Comelec said that politicians are not yet considered candidates until the campaign period.
02:41But it would be better if they are already nominated.
02:45Remember, even if the election is over, as long as there is a case of disqualification,
02:51those disqualifications will not disappear.
02:54And even if we win, we can still disqualify.
