00:00It's been more than 10 days since the Department of Agriculture
00:07issued the Maximum Suggested Retail Price for pork,
00:10but there are still a lot of people who are not able to comply with it.
00:13This is Bernadette Reyes with the latest news.
00:19For more than a week, the Maximum Suggested Retail Price for pork has been in effect,
00:25but the Agri-Department, which is being sold in Metro Manila,
00:29is still able to reach P420 per kilo of pork, while P470 per kilo of pork is being sold in Metro Manila.
00:38Mayra is trying to find a place in San Juan City to buy pork so that she can find a place in the SRP.
00:45I will move to Blanc.
00:46How much is it here? How much is it there?
00:48It's cheaper here. I'll stay here.
00:50Here in the Agora Market in San Juan, depending on the retailer,
00:53the maximum SRP is P350 per kilo of pork, while P380 per kilo of pork is being sold in Liempo.
01:01But there are other retailers that are not able to sell at this price.
01:05According to the Department of Agriculture,
01:07even though the compliance is not 100 percent,
01:10additional numbers are being added.
01:13According to the estimate of the Department of Agriculture,
01:15only 25 percent or more than 2 out of every 10 retailers are able to sell pork at the maximum SRP.
01:23They give a high price.
01:24If the price goes down by P50, we lose because we have to pay for the place.
01:29There are some who still have it.
01:30The price is low for us, so if we can sell it at a lower price,
01:34we also sell it instead of keeping it for ourselves.
01:36In Marikina Public Market, P380 per kilo of pork is being sold,
01:40while P420 per kilo of pork is still exceeding the maximum SRP.
01:44They're lowering the price by P10, so we can't keep up with the maximum SRP.
01:51That's why we're still giving P420 per kilo of pork.
01:54It depends on the retailer if we can sell it at a lower price.
01:58If we can sell it at a lower price, we won't lower the price.
02:00That's right.
02:01Because that's what they're complaining about.
02:04Maybe that's what they're complaining about.
02:06If the price is high, they'll raise the price.
02:09Of course, they have their reasons.
02:11For the agri-department, the number of customers is increasing.
02:15If you look at it, from 6 to 25 in how many days?
02:201, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
02:22It's not even a week yet.
02:24That's already quite a lot.
02:26They're already discussing where in the process of selling pork,
02:29there will be a delay.
02:31Their complaints are really there.
02:33It's also recorded.
02:36Everything is recorded.
02:39They also know where in a specific place,
02:43specific section or value chain, there are problems.
