ダバオ地域の各市政府はCovid-19への対策として、様々な角度から状況を判断し、数々の措置を実施している。その一つが、低所得世帯への現金支給による支援だ。社会福祉・開発局(Department of Social Welfare and Development:以下DSWD)ダバオは4月13日までに、同地域の247,181世帯に6,000ペソの現金支給を終えていると発表した。これは、目標としている953,521世帯のおよそ25.9%にあたる数に上り、金額にして14億ペソを越えているという。
各地域ごとの割合は、ダバオ市で31,957世帯、Davao del Surで29,330世帯、 Davao Occidentalで32,421世帯、 Davao del Norteで55,584世帯、Davao de Oroで59,511世帯、Davao Orientalで38,378世帯となっている。
同局のKristelle May Catigan氏によると、現在の強化されたコミュニティ防疫下で、少しでも貧困世帯への影響を緩和するため、2週間以内に全世帯への支給を目標としているという。
Thank you for your continued support of Davao’s portal site “Davaotchi”. “Davaotchi” is an information portal about Davao that has been running for about seven and a half years since September 2016 with the aim of conveying the charms of Davao to Japanese people in Japanese and making them more aware of Davao. Thanks to everyone’s support, we have gained a certain amount of recognition, such as being featured in a magazine, and many people have started to hear the term “Dabaotchi”. On the other hand, we have prioritized the mission of conveying the charms of Davao to as many Japanese people as possible, so there is almost no profitability, and we have allocated the profits generated from other businesses to the site management, but we have no plans for the future. As a result of careful consideration of scalability and development, Davaotchi has decided to recruit supporters who can support Davaotchi in order to better manage the site. We considered charging for the site or introducing a subscription plan, but we wanted to deliver information about Davao to as many people as possible, so we decided to simply ask for support from Davaochi fans first.
