00:00 There is a substantial alternative to instant noodles and canned food.
00:06 That is the instant chop suey and instant pinakbet
00:10 launched by the Agriculture Department.
00:13 Here is Melales Mora.
00:15 Instant chop suey and instant pinakbet.
00:25 These are the new products launched by the Department of Agriculture.
00:32 These are vegetables packed in a vacuum pack.
00:35 You just need to add hot water and it's instant.
00:38 It's delicious and nutritious.
00:40 For our fellow countrymen, this is a complete recado.
00:46 This is the chop suey, these are the vegetables, and of course, it also comes with a special sauce.
00:51 You don't need to add fish sauce or any other recado because it's already complete.
00:55 And this is the frozen pinakbet, these are the vegetables, and of course, it also comes with a special sauce.
01:01 And when it's cooked, it will just be boiled.
01:05 This is the finished product of the pinakbet.
01:08 And of course, when it's cooked, this is the boiled version and the finished product of the chop suey.
01:15 Instant chop suey and pinakbet project is part of the Adopt-a-Town, Adopt-a-Farmer program of the government
01:22 that is promoting food security in the country.
01:25 Under this, the waste of excess food and the food that is close to our fellow countrymen will be avoided.
01:35 Launching of these products is one way of addressing the oversupply of vegetables in the country.
01:43 This nutritious food package aims to be available all year round.
01:48 Food security remains a priority of this administration.
01:52 And this program presents a unique opportunity for us to come together.
01:57 For now, the price of the instant food package is being overestimated.
02:01 But the DA's target is to sell it in the market at an earlier time.
02:07 We will also be partnering with DSWD, DepEd, Bucor for school-based feeding programs during calamities.
02:16 Not only canned food, but also instant noodles.
02:21 Meanwhile, the DA also issued a statement in their official visit to the incident of onion hoarding and profiteering that is now facing complaints.
02:31 We at the DA respect the due process that is happening now.
02:37 And we also hope that the process will lead to the truth.
02:43 Ase Christine is under preventive suspension of Ombudsman.
02:47 There was a ruling before.
02:50 The case was also submitted to Ombudsman.
02:54 We will wait for what Ombudsman will say to Director Glenn and Director Juniberto.
03:01 Aside from this, the DA also commented on the camera footage that they were removed from the confidential funds under the proposed 2024 national budget.
03:10 The lower house was removed from the DA.
03:15 Again, we respect the process that is happening in the lower house.
03:20 Although we showed during the House deliberation and Senate deliberation where we will use the P50 million proposed confidential fund,
03:33 but if it will be transferred as proposed by the lower house, again we respect that decision.
