NFA nakapamahagi na ng 10,000 sako ng bigas sa Marawi City
Workers from the National Food Authority (NFA), stack sacks of rice at a warehouse in Manila on December 19, 2008. The Philippine government's mammoth rice subsidy programme hurts the poor people it is supposed to helping, according to a study published December 18. The report called for reforms to the programme, which ate up 2.5 percent of the 2008 gross domestic product and turned the monopoly rice importer NFA into the largest loss-making state firm.
