President Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos Jr. meets Indonesian businessman Dato’ Sri Tahir in Malacañang on May 30, 2023.
“So maybe I use this opportunity. I like to see, explore, we can work together in social work,” Tahir said. “We have a program that we are going to start for the street children. Unfortunately, we still have people who are homeless. So, we are trying to look after them,” said the President, adding the government program for senior citizens to help them financially and medically.
He stressed that it is "a very important part of our agenda" as it causes many social problems if the housing backlog will not be addressed.
