Kaban ni D_BystandeR: MGA HINABANG NGA PAGKAON GIPANGHIPOS, SA SUOK NANGAPAN-OS!!
Thinking in a flashback
about the DSWD's hard to understand procedure of repacking the relief goods
supposedly intended for ready distribution to typhoon victims received from
foreign countries just for the reason of repacking them so that DSWD can put
the label proudly proclaiming that the relief goods come from DSWD is a lot of
nonsense. And we read in the papers how
some typhoon victims were seen lining up on the roadsides just to ask some
kind-hearted passing motorists begging for food only to realize now that they
would not have been seen doing so if only the government had successfully accomplished
their obligation to help the victims and the supplies could not have ended up
just being dumped to the garbage site because the goods could not be used
anymore for human consumption as they already reached expiry date. And the foreign and local money contribution, in a
whooping amount of P737M, just ended up in DSWD's depository accounts in the bank
could have been used to help the Tacloban victims thus, preventing from
happening the senseless deaths due to fire of six members in a family, if only
help was given and distributed as expected.
