Parañaque City Mayor Edwin Olivarez has ordered the City Treasurer’s Office to release around P120 million for the mid-year bonus of City Hall employees.
Olivarez said City Treasurer Anthony Pulmano Pulmano was instructed to start depositing the mid-year bonus of around 7,000 City Hall employees to their ATM accounts on Monday, May 23.
He said the early release of the employees mid-year bonus is intended to help them cope with their expenses like for their children’s graduation since the school year is about to end and for the tuition of their children in the coming school year.
The mayor made the announcement during the recognition ceremony for the three athletes who competed in the South East Asian Games in Hanoi, Vietnam.
