There will be no massive lockdowns under the administration of presidential aspirant Vice President Leni Robredo, who on Wednesday, November 3, said that her plan will address hunger, unemployment, and the threat of a looming education crisis.In less than five minutes, Robredo laid down a pandemic response plan that thumbs down lockdowns on her belief that these are not the solution to the coronavirus disease crisis because they cause hunger and loss of jobs.
Similar to her previous calls, she wants financial support for small businesses in exchange for not laying off employees and unemployment insurance for workers who lost their jobs because of the pandemic. It is just recently that the government approved the pilot face-to-face classes in 100 educational institutions in the country. Robredo, on the other hand, initiated the Community Learning Hubs to help students who do not have access to computers and the internet.
It is high time that the Philippines implement a strategic plan on how to combat the pandemic to end the suffering of the people, she added.“Kayang ipatupad ito gamit ang resources at makinarya ng pambansang gobyerno. Kailangan na nating tuluyang makalaya para tayo’y makahinga muli ,” Robredo stressed.
