A member of the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) in Barangay Gusa, Cagayan de Oro City returned the Php 6,000 Social Amelioration Program (SAP) grant on Monday.   Rosalie Villa, 64 and a mother of six, said that their household is no longer qualified for the SAP subsidy as they have been receiving cash assistance through the 4Ps already. “Kahibalo g’yud ko nga dili nako pwede makadawat [sa SAP] kay 4Ps ko, maong human nako huna-hunaa, ako dayon gipahatod balik ang kwarta,” she said. (I know that I no longer qualify to receive [SAP] since I’m already receiving money from 4Ps, that’s why I thought of returning the cash aid.) Accordingly, Villa asked her daughter to return the money during the distribution of cash grants to SAP beneficiaries in their barangay. The City Government of Cagayan de Oro has lauded her honesty and hopes that others will follow Villa’s example. According to the DSWD guidelines, existing members of the 4Ps will receive their COVID-19 cash assistance separately and NOT UNDER THE SAP.   Earlier, Gusa Barangay Captain Marlo Tabac also reported another honest resident who returned his SAP subsidy despite being listed as a beneficiary.   —(Source: CDO COVID 19 RESPONSE)
