SP passes a resolution honoring Bohol‘s centernarians

Six qualified Boholano centenarians were given honors after the Sangguniang Panlalawigan (SP) passed a resolution during its regular session on Tuesday, May 25, 2021, recognizing the said centenarians for their life achievement for reaching the age of 100 years old.

According to reports, the qualified centenarians are Teologo B. Curiba from Mahagbu, Trinidad; Aurelia Daleon from Anoyon, Valencia; Feliciana Paas from Cansumbol, Bilar; Veronica S. Quim from Taug, Lila; Toribia Saludes from Sacaon, Garcia Hernandez; and Julian Selma Sr. from Sagbayan Sur, Sagbayan.. 

The said centenarians are included in the first batch that will receive a cash incentive of P100,000 coming from the Provincial Government of Bohol (PGBh).

A provincial ordinance provides the cash incentives to centenarians and the eligible centenarians are chosen by a committee that was created by the provincial ordinance.

The cash incentive coming from the PGBh is on top of the cash incentive provided to centenarians under Republic Act 10868 or the Centenarians Act of 2016. The centenarians, under the said law, will get P100,000 from the National Government via the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD).
