SUBSIDY FOR RICE RETAILERS. Hundreds of qualified small rice retailers from Marikina City received a P15,000-financial subsidy from the national government on Wednesday, September 13, at Brgy Concepcion Dos, led by Marikina Rep. Estella Quimbo.
This was following the imposition of Executive Order 39 which mandates a price ceiling on rice. President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. instructed the Department of Social Welfare and Development to utilize the agency's Sustainable Livelihood Program to help mitigate the expected financial difficulties faced by small rice vendors due to the temporary price cap.
