IMPROVING SOCIAL PROTECTION

INCLUDING THE GOVERNMENT

CONDITIONAL CASH TRANSFER
PROGRAM

BY: Given Manapat & Aldanver Caina

 CONDITIONAL CASH TRANSFER
(CCT)
 aim to reduce poverty by making welfare programs conditional upon
the receivers' actions. The government (or a charity) only transfers the
money to persons who meet certain criteria. These criteria may include
enrolling children into public schools, getting regular check-ups at the
doctor's office, receiving vaccinations, or the like. CCTs seek to help
the current generation in poverty, as well as breaking the cycle of
poverty for the next through the development of human capital.

 ANALYSIS OF THE
ACCOMPLISHMENT OF
DUTERTE ADMIN
 Duterte advocated for the expedient implementation of
progressive policies, such as the Responsible Parenthood and
Reproductive Health Law. According to Duterte, this is
aimed at empowering the Filipino families, especially the
poor to have freedom of informed choice on their preferred
number and spacing of children. He lobbied for Universal
Health Care through PhilHealth which will equalize and
broaden access to quality health services. Furthermore, he
called for genuine tax reform which would entail lowering
income and corporate taxes.
 CONCLUSION
 The fundamental challenge is for Duterte to sustain the growing momentum
of his radical agenda by: translating his personal, patriotic vision into strong,
dynamic and first-world state institutions that will outlive him; empowering a
new breed of political, bureaucratic and business elite to carefully implement his
pro-security and pro-developmental policies, plans and programs; maintaining
support among the majority of the Filipino populace; and managing bilateral and
multilateral relations with neighboring countries as well as regional powers.
 RECCOMMENDATION
(If there is misbehavior among beneficiaries, it is not only the pawning of cash
cards. It also includes gambling and getting drunk on alcohol. If it's just
consuming small amounts of alcohol that is fine.) The DSWD said some families
were already delisted in the program, but for good reason.
