00:00Pension for all Filipino senior citizens, the mission of the Panukala in Camara.
00:07The question is, where will they get the funds for that?
00:10Jonathan Andar is on the line.
00:13There is a pension for senior citizens, but only for the indigent or the poor.
00:21Mother Beatriz, who is already 72 years old, did not receive a pension, even though she is always applying for this.
00:29I was told that I will be validated, but I have already been validated several times.
00:32Until now, I still haven't received a pension.
00:34I am always being denied.
00:36Most of the time, other people die of heart attacks, but nothing happens.
00:41That's why I said, I will just stop getting heart attacks.
00:44I will just let myself die.
00:47Currently, there is a Panukalang Batas in Camara that if passed, all senior citizens in the country will receive a pension.
00:55If there is no qualification, everyone, whether 60 years old and above, whether rich or poor,
01:01whether they have a pension or not, will receive a monthly pension.
01:05You will register in OSCA to be counted as a senior citizen.
01:12Under the Universal Social Pension Bill, the pension is P500 per month for the first year.
01:18Every year, P100 will be added up to P1,000.
01:22To achieve this, a P89 billion fund will be needed for the estimated 10.5 million senior citizens.
01:30The question is, where will this money go?
01:33According to Congressman Loreto Amante, Vice-Chair of the House Senior Citizens Committee,
01:37according to the study, the National Budget can fund the pension of grandparents
01:42who do not owe and no agency can reduce the budget.
01:46But Panukala still has a long way to go.
01:48It was approved by the House Committee on Appropriations earlier before being included in the plenary.
01:52If it passes through the House of Representatives, it needs to pass through the Senate.
01:56If it is also approved, the President needs to pass it to pass a law.
02:00For GMA Integrated News, Jonathan Andal, Katutok, 24 Hours.
