State-run private sector pension fund Social Security System (SSS) said Saturday it is prepared to extend assistance to victims of the magnitude 7 earthquake that struck Abra in northern Luzon last Wednesday morning.
In a statement, the SSS said it is ready to release a calamity assistance program to earthquake victims in areas declared under the state of calamity.
The pension fund said that Calamity Assistance Package will be extended to SSS members and pensioners in areas to be declared by the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) as under the state of calamity.
SSS president and chief executive Officer Michael Regino said that the Calamity Assistance Package will consist of the Calamity Loan Assistance Program (CLAP) and the three-month advance pension for pensioners. —LBG/KG, GMA News
