Farmers, fisherfolk now entitled to fuel subsidy
April 13, 2011
FARMERS and fisherfolks are included in the beneficiaries of fuel subsidy offered by President Benigno Aquino III to cushion the impact of continuing price increases in imported oil products.
Agriculture Secretary Proceso Alcala Jr. made the announcement Tuesday in a press briefing in Malacanang.
He said the implementation of the program might begin within the next two weeks.
Alcala said the lists of farmers and fisherfolk beneficiaries were already submitted to the office of Energy Secretary Rene Almendras.
He said the lists of beneficiaries are gathered from the records registered at the Philippine Coast Guard and Maritime Industry Authority (Marina) while the lists of tractors and water irrigation pumps are collated from the registered traders and different municipal agriculturists nationwide.
Alcala said he submitted the lists at the office of Secretary Almendras immediately after the proposal to provide fuel assistance to public transportation industry was presented to the Cabinet.
The Department of Agriculture secretary said the Energy department will determine how much would be the subsidy for farmers and fisherfolks.
On Tuesday, President Aquino hinted at expanding the fuel subsidy program for farmers and fishermen who are also involved in transporting food products.
Recently, the President has issued Executive Order 32 instituting the Public Transport Assistance program (PTAP) known as the Pantawid Pasada program of the government that initially allots P450 million to assist transport groups in the country.
The program partially subsidizes the average consumption of identified public transport group provided that they have legitimate franchises under the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board.
The Energy department is still finalizing the implementing rules and regulations for the program to be published this week. (Jill Beltran/Sunnex)
