 Aeats in Capas tarlac get DSWD aid

 

MANILA, Philippines — The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) distributed farming carabaos to members of the Aeta community in Capas, Tarlac on Thursday.

“Ayaw po namin na maramdaman ninyo na malayo kami. Ang utos ng Pangulo, ang mga ahensya ng pamahalaang nasyonal dapat sa kasuluk-sulukan na lugar ng Pilipinas nararamdaman at nakikita po ninyo,” Social Welfare Secretary Rex Gatchalian said.

(We don’t want you to feel that we are out of reach. The President’s order is that the national government agencies should be felt and seen even in the most remote areas of the Philippines.)
