The Parañaque City government is set to launch next month a new program giving about 40,000 residents P5,000 cash assistance, Mayor Edwin Olivarez announced on Sunday.

Olivarez said families who will benefit from the “Parana-Cash” program are those who did not receive any form of cash assistance from the national government under the Social Amelioration Program, expanded 4Ps, and COVID-19 Adjustment Measures Program of the Department of Labor and Employment.

“Households who did not receive cash from the national government are entitled to P5,000 cash assistance as part of the city’s relief efforts to mitigate the economic impact caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic,” the city chief executive said. 

Olivarez said the city government was able to raise funds for the Paraña-Cash program after suspending the construction of P200 million astrodome project supposedly to be constructed this year.
