Price of Rice Soared to P60- P100 Higher Per Sack



The rice retailers in different parts of the country are complaining about the rice price hike. As the rice price shoot up, they do not have a choice but to sell the product also at a higher price. Rice prices increased from P60 to P100 per sack. Federation of Central Luzon Farmers Corp. said that the rice price hike is due the high priced rice that is being distributed to the market places which are controlled by big-time rice processors, millers, and importers. National Food Authority's buffer stock is still low to assure that there will be no rice shortage in the country. NFA said that so far there are no price hike on rice wholesale as of the moment. The agency also said that there is sufficient rice and price hikes in rice retail is only P1 per kilo. However, NFA requested that they would be allowed to import 250 metric tons of rice from Vietnam and Thailand. Their buffer stock is only good for less than 15 days, meaning they cannot release enough rice to regulate the price during rainy season where there are no local harvests of rice. Agriculture secretary Manny Piñol said that he already informed President Rodrigo Duterte that it is possible to import rice now as the harvest season has ended. President Duterte has stopped rice importation due to the competition with the local rice. He even fired Undersecretary Maia Chiara Halmen Reina Valdez for contradicting with the NFA mandate to suspend rice importation during harvest season. Rice is a staple food for Filipinos and the rising cost of it will mean big for every citizen. Large chunk of every family's earning goes to the budget on food. High cost of rice could be an additional burden for the minimum wage earners and for those who are earning below the minimum wage rates.

Do You Need Money For Tuition Fee For The Next School Year? You Need To Watch This Do you need money for your tuition fee to be able to study this coming school year? The Philippine government might be able to help you. All you need to do is to follow these steps: -Inquire at the state college or university where you want to study. -Bring Identification forms. If your family is a 4Ps subsidiary, prepare and bring your 4Ps identification card. For families who are not a member of 4Ps, bring your family's proof of income. -Bring the registration form from your state college or university where you want to study. Nicholas Tenazas, Deputy executive Director of CHED-UniFAST said that in the program, the state colleges and universities will not collect any tuition fee from the students. The Government will shoulder their tuition fees. CHED-UniFAST or the Unified Student Financial Assistance For Tertiary Education otherwise known as the Republic Act 10687 which aims to provide quality education to the Filipinos. What are the qualifications for availing of the modalities of UniFAST? The applicant for any of the modalities under the UniFAST must meet the following minimum qualifications: (a) must be a Filipino citizen, but the Board may grant exemptions to foreign students based on reciprocal programs that provide similar benefits to Filipino students, such as student exchange programs, international reciprocal Scholarships, and other mutually beneficial programs; (b) must be a high school graduate or its equivalent from duly authorized institutions; (c) must possess good moral character with no criminal record, but this requirement shall be waived for programs which target children in conflict with the law and those who are undergoing or have undergone rehabilitation; (d) must be admitted to the higher education institution (HEI) or TVI included in the Registry of Programs and Institutions of the applicant’s choice, provided that the applicant shall be allowed to begin processing the application within a reasonable time frame set by the Board to give the applicant sufficient time to enroll; (e) in the case of technical-vocational education and training or TVET programs, must have passed the TESDA screening/assessment procedure, trade test, or skills competency evaluation; and (f) in the case of scholarship, the applicant must obtain at least the score required by the Board for the Qualifying Examination System for Scoring Students and must possess such other qualifications as may be prescribed by the Board. The applicant has to declare also if he or she is already a beneficiary of any other student financial assistance, including government StuFAP. However, if at the time of application of the scholarship, grant-in-aid, student loan, or other modalities of StuFAP under this Act, the amount of such other existing grant does not cover the full cost of tertiary education at the HEI or TVI where the applicant has enrolled in, the applicant may still avail of the StuFAPs under this Act for the remaining portion.

The rice retailers in different parts of the country are complaining about the rice price hike. As the rice price shoot up, they do not have a choice but to sell the product also at a higher price. Rice prices increased from P60 to P100 per sack.

Federation of Central Luzon Farmers Corp. said that the rice price hike is due the high priced rice that is being distributed to the market places which are controlled by big-time rice processors, millers, and importers.

National Food Authority's buffer stock is still low to assure that there will be no rice shortage in the country. NFA said that so far there are no price hike on rice wholesale as of the moment. The agency also said that there is sufficient rice and price hikes in rice retail is only P1 per kilo.

However, NFA requested that they would be allowed  to import 250 metric tons of rice from Vietnam and Thailand. Their buffer stock is only good for less than 15 days, meaning  they cannot release enough rice to regulate the price during rainy season where there are no local harvests of rice.
Agriculture secretary Manny Piñol  said that he already informed President Rodrigo Duterte that it is possible to  import rice now as the harvest season has ended.
President Duterte has stopped rice importation due to the competition with the local rice. He even fired Undersecretary Maia Chiara Halmen Reina Valdez for contradicting with the NFA mandate to suspend rice importation during harvest season.
Rice is a staple food for Filipinos and the rising cost of it will mean big for every citizen. Large chunk of every family's earning goes to the budget on food. High cost of rice could be an additional burden for the minimum wage earners and for those who are earning below the minimum wage rates.
