NEDA’s P64/day claim insults Pinoy workers

The Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP) criticized the National Economic and Development Authority’s (NEDA) outrageous claim that a Filipino can thrive on just ₱64 for three meals daily.

TUCP, in a statement Thursday, said the low poverty threshold is an insult to Filipino workers.

 “How can anyone expect families to survive on such a meager amount? It said this assertion is not just absurd; it’s a slap in the face to those struggling to make ends meet.

Bianca's heart, determination

The 2024 Paris Olympics saw the birth of Carlos Yulo as the greatest Filipino Olympian. His story is inspirational and worth writing in a book for our children to read in future generations.

But this Summer Games produced another remarkable tale: Bianca Pagdanganan's fightback on the final day of the women's golf competition.

No, Pagdanganan didn't win a medal. She narrowly missed a podium finish, but her performance against the best golfers in the world on the sport's biggest stage is an inspiring story to tell.
