Because ECQ has been extended, it
follows that government aid must not only be extended but also expanded to
cover all in millions who are left behind by CAMP and SAC due to its
non-universal approach and bureaucratic gridlock. The amount should also be raised
approximating the level of minimum wage, or P10K whichever is higher.
The extension should also be utilized in
preparing the best protocols for workers' safe and protected return to work,
including enhanced capacity for conducting the most effective method of mass
testing and industry compliance to OHS law and other labor standards.
As to financial difficulty facing the
our covid-19 response, we call on the government to consider imposing higher
taxes on private wealth of big businesses and richest families.
