00:00It's profitable and profitable.
00:02That's the help of the government to the farmers
00:05through two farm-to-market roads in Albay.
00:09I'm Emanuel Bongco of Radyo Pilipinas, Albay for Balitang Pambansa.
00:16Now, there's no more poverty.
00:18If you have a business or you're going to bring something to the town,
00:23you can already get a tricycle or a motorcycle.
00:29The new farm-to-market roads in Pulang, Albay
00:31is a big help for Nana Josefina.
00:35In the past, they had to import or import products
00:39so that their products can be exported and sold in the market.
00:43Because of the Situ San Luis Lourdes FMR,
00:46which is 1.97 kilometers long,
00:49the farmers in the town can save a lot.
00:53If there's an FMR, it means there's progress.
00:56If there's progress, we know that there will be more businesses.
01:00If there are businesses,
01:02since this area of the town of Pulang Luis is more agricultural,
01:07we expect that their farm-to-market roads will increase even more.
01:14Malabnig Mapaco-Mauraro FMR in Ginubatan
01:17also brought a lot of progress
01:19because it's 2.293 kilometers long.
01:22The government allocated P150 million for two FMRs.
01:27These initiatives are part of the promises
01:31of the administration of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.
01:34to help farmers and strengthen the agricultural sector of the Philippines.
01:39From Radyo Pilipinas, Albay, Emmanuel Bongcudin,
