00:00 President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. last warned the people behind the hoarding and smuggling of rice in the country.
00:06 The President also reminded the relevant agencies to tighten the implementation of the law
00:13 to address the issue of rice.
00:15 Alan Francisco will give the details.
00:18 In the new Philippines,
00:23 smugglers are prohibited,
00:26 hoarders are prohibited,
00:28 and those who are abusing the country are prohibited.
00:34 That is the bold warning of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.
00:38 against smugglers and hoarders of rice
00:41 when he announced the distribution of rice in Manila
00:44 for 1,000 beneficiaries of the 4-Peace
00:47 or Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program.
00:49 25 kilos of rice is being given here
00:53 in San Andres Sports Complex to each beneficiary
00:56 and if the beneficiary is unable to carry the rice,
00:59 they are assisted by DSWD officials.
01:02 This rice is a government aid to the Filipinos
01:06 to help in the middle of the rise in the price of rice
01:09 of some of the countrymen.
01:11 In the new Philippines, this is no longer allowed.
01:14 That is what they are doing.
01:16 First of all, they will smuggle rice.
01:20 They will bring it here to the Philippines.
01:24 But once it enters the Philippines,
01:27 they will not sell that rice to the market.
01:31 You cannot buy it yet.
01:33 They will not bring it to the market.
01:35 They will not release it.
01:36 They will hide it.
01:38 To increase the supply,
01:42 the price is increasing.
01:44 He repeated the orders of the authorities
01:46 and the government's agency
01:48 that the enforcement of the police and law
01:51 up to the issue of rice is strictly prohibited.
01:53 The rice that was distributed
01:55 still came from the fishing supplies in Zamboanga Port
01:58 which was proven to not go through the legal process of importation.
02:02 Instead of wasting this rice,
02:06 we will give it to the people.
02:10 This went through...
02:11 This went through the right process
02:17 of investigation, fishing, and inspection
02:22 to ensure that this rice is safe
02:25 and distributed to the needy.
02:28 This will also serve as a warning
02:31 to all smugglers and hoarders
02:34 that we will protect the rice of the country.
02:39 The recipients of rice, like Shirley,
02:43 a PWD from Barangay 740,
02:47 and her son, who went to Ayuda, are very happy.
02:49 I want to thank the President
02:53 for the help he's giving to the needy.
02:55 I've been able to hold on to this for a long time
03:00 and talk to the personnel.
03:02 The rice was distributed first to the people of Ecotibo,
03:05 then to Zamboanga, Cebu, General Trias Cavite,
03:08 and to Camarines Sur.
03:09 Aside from that,
03:10 the government also continued its programs
03:13 related to agriculture,
03:15 like the President's Department
03:17 and the machinery
03:19 for farmers
03:20 and other projects that will help their production.
03:23 Meanwhile, President Marcos called
03:25 the National Food Authority
03:27 to follow his directive
03:29 to prioritize modernization
03:31 in the agriculture sector.
03:33 In the message of the President
03:34 read by Agriculture Senior Undersecretary
03:37 Domingo Panganiban
03:38 on the 51st anniversary celebration of the NFA,
03:41 he recognized the NFA in its modernization program.
03:44 The President also gave a statement
03:45 that the government continues to look for solutions
03:48 to the problems in agriculture and food productions.
03:52 Alan Francisco for the morning show of the country,
03:55 Rice and Shine, Philippines.
