Sara slams P20/kilo rice program anew

"Nilabay na ang tulo ka tuig unya naa na kuno karon ang tag P20 nga bugas. Kabalo mo ngano? Kay election na man sad. Kinsay gipahimuslan? Ang kabus, ang ilang gipahimuslan," Duterte told the crowd.

Cebu Governor Gwen Garcia, on a separate statement earlier, defended the Department of Agriculture’s P20-per-kilo rice program, stressing that the initiative is meant to help indigent families and not serve political interests.

“Up to now, maoy gisigehan og sukot, hain na man ang 20 pesos nga bugas? Karong nia na, ang yawyaw na sab, nganong karon pa man? Aw di mo, ayaw! Pero nia na,” the governor said during a coordination meeting with mayors for the program’s rollout in Cebu Province last Friday.
