“Sa ngayon nakikipagtulungan tayo sa Bureau of Customs. We are thankful sa BOC dahil na-facilitate na ang release ng 9,000 boxes. But there are around 5,000 more to go, half of them are in the Davao port. We are thankful sa BOC, may deed of donation na ido-donate sa atin at tayo na ang magdi-distribute, so isasagawa natin yon,” he said.

“Dito sa Manila, we are working on the same deed of donation system, pero ang maganda dahil sa hearing noong isang araw, nakita natin na pwede pala yung system na puntahan mo nalang sa warehouse, around 40 boxes were released the other day. This will be just the beginning of the continued distribution, so 9,000 now, 5,000 more to go," he added.
