Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, April 9) Pasig City has opted for house-to-house distribution of cash aid as reports emerge of recipients gathering in large groups and lining up until wee hours to get their financial assistance from their local government.
Pasig Mayor Vico Sotto on Friday said 40 teams have been deployed to visit the homes of the individuals qualified to receive aid during the enhanced community quarantine period. He said the visits are unannounced to prevent crowding of those hoping to receive help.
The local chief executive added they are opting for cashless distribution for families that are part of the Social Welfare Development s Social Amelioration Program list.
