BALANGA CITY — Senatorial bet Mar Roxas on Tuesday batted for zero interest for loans to market vendors and farmers as he made the rounds of the Balanga City Public Market in Bataan.

He shook hands, posed for pictures with vendors and marketgoers and asked vendors of their concerns.

He said that the vendors voiced many complaints, first, the increase in prices of products and second, their need for low interest on loans having not enough capital.

“Pinakareklamo ng mga nanininda ay matumal na matumal ang benta dahil walang pera ang mga tao,” the former senator said.

“Magsasaka hindi makapagbenta ng magandang presyo dahil imported ang kalaban. Nanininda naiipit ang kanilang puhunan kaya naghahanap sila ng mas murang pautang kesa sa 5-6 na katumbas ng 20 porsiyentong tubo kada buwan,” Roxas said.

He said those who can afford credit cards pay only three percent interest monthly. “Mahihirap naiiwan dahi sa interes pa lamang lugi na sila, dehado na sila.” He said the solution was very simple.

“Mula sa national government, paraanin sa LGU at pautangin sila kahit walang interes. Ang gobyerno hindi naman dapat kumita.”

“Gawin automatic na members ng 4Ps ang mga magsasaka at vendors at pautangin nang walang interes,” Roxas added.

Asked if it was true that he has a gap with other candidates under Otso Diretso, he answered “kayo lang sa media nag-iisip niyan. Siguro naghahanap kayo ng pasabong.”
