6,500,000,000 PHP for ONE FAMILY
IS EQUAL TO:
Luxury cars they could parade in the streets with no speed limit, coding,
or any respect for traffic policies
Vacation houses that would be empty for 11.75 months a year
Family vacations in Europe, the US, the Moon, etc.
Handbags that are more expensive than low cost houses
Watches that could send a dozen scholars to school from pre-school to high
school
6,500,000,000 PHP
is EQUAL to
108,000 families that would be given decent homes that they could live in
for 15-20 years
77,380 employees that would be fairly supported for one year
135,416 Scholars who could go to decent colleges for four years
40,000 people who would get health insurance for a year
11,607 Scholars who could study in ATENEO or LA SALLE for four years with
stipend and school supplies allowance
9,285 Public School libraries that would serve 18,570,000 public school
students
WHAT IS 130 MILLION DOLLARS TO YOU?
How many schools would that be?
How many children would be given laptops for their education?
How many street children could be saved from the streets?
I am inviting you to calculate for your country.
