00:00We expanded the definition of solo parent and then expanded the benefits for them.

00:05So what are the benefits for them?

00:08We had a solo parent booklet.

00:10What is the booklet?

00:12If you are a solo parent with children below six years old,

00:15you are entitled to a solo parent booklet.

00:17That booklet can give you entitlement for discount on diapers, medicines,

00:22diapers, medicines, and formula.

00:26So those are your discounts. Limited to those only.

00:29Only for solo parents with children below six years old.

00:33This is not included in the previous law.

00:35Then there is the 1,000 per month subsidy

00:38that the local government is complaining about.

00:40Again, the media is here.

00:42That is the tip that I always call on them.

00:45The definition of aid for the solo parent

00:48is if they do not receive any other regular aid from the government.

00:53Therefore, even if they are a solo parent,

00:55they are not entitled to the 1,000.

00:57Whatever, the CASPRO or whatever their assets are,

01:01has to be given as part of the assistance given to this, you know,

01:06the businesses.

01:08It is not implemented because it is not realized yet.

01:13If we have that, if that's really implemented,

01:168%, that's about trillions.

01:19If you include the portfolio of that 8%,

01:22then you will be able to borrow a lot of low interest

01:25and you will be happy sometimes.
