🍽️ Food Budget and Poverty in the Philippines
The script discusses the inadequacy of the PHP 664 daily food budget per person set by the National Economic Development Authority (NEDA) in the Philippines. The budget is critiqued for being too low, with Maki and Kasya questioning if it can sustain a healthy diet. The script references the Food and Nutrition Research Institute's recommendations for a balanced meal, which includes eggs, rice, and vegetables, and suggests that the current budget might not cover such meals.

Toto shares his experience of shopping at a market where the prices are far from the government's ideal PHP 2 per meal, indicating a disconnect between government estimates and real-world costs. The script calls for an updated survey to reflect the true cost of living and the need for a more accurate poverty threshold.
