SOMETHING STINKS AT THE DOH!

SOMETHING STINKS in the Department of Health (DoH).

The DoH has set aside more than P500 million in its 2013 budget for contraceptives. But it only allotted a measly P31 million, or LESS THAN 10 PERCENT of that, for natural family planning.

What makes this HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS? The contraceptives the DOH wants to purchase are either CONSUMABLE or DISPOSABLE.

Check these out -- pills at P245.051 million; injectables, P91.225 million; intra-uterine devices, P170.441 million; and bilateral tubal ligation kits, P11.336 million.

Natural family planning, however, can be practiced for as long as the couple wants, like the rhythm method. If I remember correctly, NOTHING has to be PURCHASED REGULARLY.

And let’s not forget that it’s A LOT, if not totally, SAFER than contraceptives.  Again, anybody can correct me if I’m wrong.

So WHY should the DoH spend MORE THAN 10 TIMES an amount on TEMPORARY contraceptives than on alternatives which are safer and good for a LIFETIME AT NO PERPETUAL COST if practiced by  couples?

Why won’t the DoH SPEND MORE on the promotion of natural family panning?  

WALANG KATAPUSAN ang gobyerno ni PNoy sa PAGDAING na KULANG NA KULANG ang pondo ng bansa. Puwes, BAKIT gusto ng DoH na gumastos ng MAS MALAKI SA HALIP NA MAKATIPID?

Iisa lang ang nakikita kong dahilan, mga kababayan: MAY KIKITA, MAY MAGKAKAROON NG KOMISYON sa pagbili ng mga contraceptives.

Anybody who can think of a more logical but milder reason is welcome to comment. But believe it or not, our worry SHOULD NOT END THERE, boys and girls. There’s something else which is more SCARY.

WALANG HANGGANAN ang  pangongomisyon na ito pag nagkataon.

Paano? Kapag naubos na ang mga bibilhing contraceptives, natural na BIBILI ULIT. DAANG-DAANG MILYON, O BILYONG PISO na naman mula sa pera ng bayan, na GALING SA BUWIS NATIN.

Tulad  nga kasabihan natin sa Tagalog, TAYO ang magbabayo at nagsasaing, IBA ANG KAKAIN. 30
