Question

Write the opinion on the pantawid Pamilya , Pilipino Program (4Ps) of the government as a solution to poverty in our country​

Answer 1

In my opinion, 4ps does help people who are suffering from poverty. However, this is not the solution to poverty because many people will rely on 4ps and some of them won't use it in the right way. 

Answer 2

By the number of recipients, the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) of the Philippines is the third-largest conditional cash transfer program in the world.

• Regarding how the 4Ps affect poverty, there is no apparent agreement.
• In the program's early phase, two impact evaluations were conducted, but neither discovered any effects on household consumption, income, or poverty.
• However, they noticed changes in the amount spent on healthcare and education.
• There are concerns regarding the benefit amount's sufficiency in battling poverty because it hasn't been modified in more than ten years and has decreased in real value.
• According to a third impact assessment, the 4Ps increased the cost of perishable foods high in protein in areas with a high concentration of beneficiary households.
• This had a detrimental knock-on effect on non-beneficiary children, who saw a rise in stunting.

As a result, the programme needs to change to reach targets for reducing poverty and giving recipients more secure employment.
