KASAMA na rin si ex-senator JV Ejercito sa ilang netizens na dinedemand na tanggalin na ang red tape sa pag-release ng funds ng national government para sa mga naapektuhan ng COVID-19.
Sa isang tweet, hinahanap nya ang sinasabi sa report ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte na P140 billion na ini-release sa Department of Social Welfare and Development bilang assistance.
“According to the President’s Report that more than 140 Billion has been released to DSWD as assistance. Where is it? People haven’t worked because of the lockdown, this is badly needed for the duration. People will be hungry soon. Cut the red tape. Release the funds!”

Sa isa pang tweet sinabi ni JV na nakaka-frustrate daw maging ex government official dahil kahit anong sabihin nya ay optional lang para sa ibang taong gawin pero aniya, hindi pwedeng paupo-upo lang dahil kailangan ang pagtutulungan.
Sometimes it’s frustrating 2 be called an ex government official. Whatever you ask or request for is just optional if people would act on it, unlike if you are in position.
Nonetheless, we cannot just sit around. We all need help in whatever way we can.
Ibang laban ito.
