Poverty threshhold is P96/day PBBM did not say this; this is from PSA data


It is more fun criticizing






Poverty threshold is at P96.00/day. PBBM did not say this; PSA did


The P96.00 poverty threshold is trending;   some attribute this to PBBM, but he never said this.  Only PSA.   "  he national poverty threshold at P35,121 per person a year, or about P2,927 a month. Per day, the threshold is approximately P96.

This post was one of those who reacted to those numbers, since cooked rice is at P15.00 viand is at P40.00  = P55 x 3  =  P165.   and that is just for one person.  It is much higher for a family of 3 or 4...  The most common reaction is that the figures are not based on reality....

Are you poor or well (off) higher than P96.00 daily earning?
