THE PENULTIMATE SONA OF PRESIDENT BENIGNO S. AQUINO III

THE PENULTIMATE SONA 
OF PRESIDENT BENIGNO S. AQUINO III

The latest State of the Nation Address of the President became so emotional and less firing. Even the opposition spokesperson agreed with the analysis and considered this 5th SONA of the president as the best among previous annual addresses. The audio-visual presentation became more evident and comprehensive this time as it involved testimonies from the recipients  who benefited from TESDA schooling program which is one of the agencies that was funded by the so-called economic stimulus or popularly known as the Development Acceleration Program (DAP). Although DAP has its tangible and intangible benefits for boosting economic growth of the country, still many critics of the President have qualms about its existence prior to its repeal.Another, the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (Conditional Cash Transfer) was also underlined in the speech as this program has helped alleviate the effect of poverty and extend relief to the destitute families.
