Kaban ni D_BystandeR: HINABANG ALANG SA NAPAIG NGA TIGULANG, GILISOD-LISOD?
DSWD head Ester Concha
should not make it hard for the family members of the centenarian, Juanita
Canete Arcaya, 101, who died in a fire last September 25 in Barangay
Kasambagan, Cebu City. Instead she should adopt that
"public-friendly" attitude to help the claimants. When all the papers
were submitted to her office, it was returned because she wants them to submit
a "write-up" or sort of autobiography of the centenarian. That would
probably give another problem for the claimant's relatives especially if they have
nobody in their family having the talent to comply with such requirement. In order not to give so much
"stress" on the part of the claimant's relatives, what Concha could
have done was to assign somebody from
her staff to conduct interview to the "old lady" (at the time when
she was still alive) to come up with the requirement. Mayor Mike Rama and VM Labella
should help "iron out" this problem especially that this family is
now badly in need of the money that their grandma, Juanita Arcaya, rightfully deserves to receive.
