prices in public markets are the same as in the government-run stores, hopefully by March next year, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said Thursday.President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. takes a look at rice sold at P25 per kilogram at the Kadiwa ng Pasko caravan in Quezon City on Thursday. The Chief Executive said the Kadiwa stalls will continue operating even beyond the holiday season to provide more affordable products to Filipinos.
The Kadiwa program was relaunched in November to allow the public to buy agricultural products at lower prices amid higher inflation. The severe inflationary crisis combined with a global slowdown in economic growth – driven in part by the war in Ukraine and the global energy crisis – are causing a striking fall in real monthly wages in many countries, according to the new ILO report.
“The multiple global crises we are facing have led to a decline in real wages. It has placed tens of millions of workers in a dire situation as they face increasing uncertainties,” said ILO Director-General, Gilbert F. Houngbo.
