DSWD Disaster Response Fund

With the typhoon season starting, I'm checking DSWD#41824. Is ₽2B enough for the whole country?

Universal Access to Tertiary Education

Checking the budget for free college. It's funded through DEPED#41247 (actually CHED). $60B seems fair.

Road repair vs New roads

DPWH focus seems to be on new bypass roads DPWH#40440 but our existing highway is full of potholes. Priorities?

Why is the school-based feeding program budget down?

I was looking at DEPED today and noticed that DEPED#41247 (School-Based Feeding Program) seems to have a smaller slice than last year. Does anyone know why? Is it because of the shift to other nutrition programs?

New Vaccine Procurement Budget

Is there a specific line item in DOH#41483 for the new flu vaccines? I see a general 'Public Health Services' lump sum.

Alternative Learning System (ALS)

The DEPED#41247 for ALS is a lifesaver for working students. We need to advocate for more funding here!

Health Facilities Enhancement - Barangay Health Centers

Great to see DOH investing in DOH#41483. Our local clinic finally got a new ultrasound machine! This is what transparency is for.

Is the DEPED budget really the highest?

Politicians always say DEPED gets the biggest chunk, but when you look at the DEPED#41247 for actual school buildings, it feels small. Where does the rest go?

Civilian Defense vs Military

Looking at DND. The DND#41671 for civilian defense (OCD) seems underfunded considering our typhoon risk.

My neighbors worked under DOLE#38985 (TUPAD) last month but haven't been paid yet. DOLE, please look into the regional disbursements.

Transparency in DPWH local projects

Found a project in my town listed under DPWH#40440. It says 'completed' but nobody has seen the bridge. Help?

Comparing DOH and DND spending

Just saw that DOH is getting significantly more than DND this year. A win for social services! Thoughts?

DND Modernization: Naval focus vs Air Force

Looking at DND#41671, it seems we are heavily prioritizing naval assets. Given the West Philippine Sea situation, this makes sense, but what about the DND#41672 air defense?

Livelihood programs for OFWs

Does DOLE have specific funds for returning OFWs? Looking at DOLE#38985 but it's not very specific.

DPWH Bypass Road Status in Iloilo

Does anybody have an update on DPWH#40440? The signs say it should be 80% done but it still looks like a dirt track. DPWH, what's going on?

Are there grants for small businesses in DOLE? I see DOLE#38985 but it seems to be for individuals only.

4Ps inflation adjustment

The DSWD#41824 (4Ps) is great, but with the current price of rice, the cash grant isn't enough. Is there any provision in DSWD for 'inflation buffers'?
