That truly is by all accounts a test, among numerous different things. Along with this, Bayanihan 2 was in the plan during their visit to Malacañang, yet they couldn’t take that up. There has been no clearness pushing ahead. It’s looking very close. The probability of augmentation is getting dimmer now.

The House passed the action expanding Bayanihan 2 presently House Bill 9538 on second perusing before Congress went on break last June 4. It proposes to revise Republic Act 11519, which initially broadened the accessibility of Bayanihan 2 assets until June 30 this year.
