Is this better than Philhealth or worse than philhealth?
I am currently receiving about Php 2,500 monthly pension. How can I apply for an advance which I would use to operate a tricycle, and how many years maximum can I apply for. My monthly pension is so small that I could barely survive due to rising costs.
