QUEZON CITY – The Social Security System (SSS) urged household employers to register their kasambahay or household helpers with the SSS to ensure they are covered by the country’s social security protection program, as it launched a Kasambahay Caravan on March 22, 2026 at 43 sites across Metro Manila and Rizal.
SSS President and Chief Executive Officer Robert Joseph M. de Claro emphasized that the Kasambahay Caravan is a key SSS initiative to extend protection to this often‑overlooked group of workers.
“Household helpers keep our homes running smoothly but often lack emergency protection,” de Claro said. “This initiative ensures every kasambahay can access SSS benefits such as sickness, maternity, disability, unemployment, retirement, funeral, and death.”
De Claro added that registered kasambahay can also apply for SSS loan programs, including salary loans and calamity loans. “They will also get additional protection from the Employees’ Compensation (EC) Program for work‑related sickness, disability, or death,” he said.
Speaking at the kickoff event held at SM City Marikina on March 22, 2026, SSS NCR Operations Group Acting Senior Vice President Benjamin Dolindo Jr. said the drive aims to strengthen social security coverage for a sector that plays a vital role in family life.
“Social security coverage for the sector that is truly important in our homes is a shared responsibility,” Dolindo said. “May we continue fulfilling our responsibility to ensure that every house helper is registered and protected.”
The Kasambahay Caravan is part of a broader campaign to bring SSS registration and membership services closer to household workers and their employers, many of whom are still not formally enrolled.
At the event, SSS provided on‑site services such as SSS registration for kasambahay and household employers, issuance of SSS numbers and member data change requests, online services assistance such as, My.SSS registration, password resetting, generation of Payment Reference Numbers (PRNs), loan and benefit application, and orientation on benefits, coverage, and registration responsibilities.
Under Republic Act No. 11199 or the Social Security Act of 2018, employers are required to register their household helpers within 30 days of hiring and remit their contributions.
For kasambahay earning ₱5,000 or more per month, household employers deduct the employee’s share from the salary, add their own contribution, and pay via accredited channels. For those earning ₱5,000 or less, employers fully cover the contributions.
SM City Marikina Mall Manager Francis Brian Cruz welcomed the partnership, saying the mall is committed to supporting community‑driven programs that promote social protection.
“We are honored to partner with SSS in bringing essential services near to our community and most especially to our kasambahay who play an important role in our homes and our daily lives,” Cruz said.
Social Security Commissioner Eva Arcos, who also attended the launch, stressed that social security should be viewed as a long‑term investment in workers’ well‑being.
“We should look at social security as an investment rather than an expense,” Arcos said. “For every employer who registers their kasambahay, they are not only paying a contribution but also securing a safety net for a worker who helps run their household.”
The SSS plans to expand the Kasambahay Caravan in other areas with the goal of closing coverage gaps among household workers and ensuring they receive the same basic protections as other formal‑sector employees.
President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. inspected the newly opened final segment of the CAVITEX C5 Link.
The newly opened stretch runs from Airport View Subdivision to the Sucat Interchange in Parañaque City.
The project is a joint venture between Metro Pacific Tollways Corporation’s (MPTC) subsidiary, Cavitex Infrastructure Corporation (CIC), and the Philippine Reclamation Authority (PRA).
Joining the President in the inspection were Transportation Secretary Banoy Lopez; Public Works Secretary Vince Dizon; Philippine Reclamation Authority (PRA) Chairman Alex Lopez; MPTC President Emeritus Mr. Jose Maria Lim; MPTC President and CEO Gilbert Sta. Maria; and Transportation Undersecretary Steve Pastor.
Segment 3B completes the 7.7-kilometer CAVITEX C5 Link. It connects Manila–Cavite Expressway (CAVITEX) to C5 Road in Taguig City, reducing travel time from the usual 1.5 hours to just 15 minutes.
The opening follows the earlier completion of Segment 3A-1 (C5 Flyover to Merville), Segment 3A-2 (Merville to RSG and Airport View), and Segment 2 (Sucat Interchange to R1 Expressway) between 2019 and 2024.
To immediately serve the motoring public, Segment 3B will initially open under a modified scheme for a seamless bidirectional travel. Eastbound motorists will have direct access to Bonifacio Global City (BGC), while westbound travelers will have a smoother route toward Parañaque, Las Piñas, Bacoor, and Kawit, Cavite.
Designed as a six-lane expressway (three lanes per direction), the at-grade section will temporarily operate with four lanes (two lanes per direction) while Right-of-Way (ROW) concerns are being addressed. Once the DPWH acquires the pending ROW, the remaining portion of the service road will also be completed and opened in its planned two-lane-per-direction configuration. Construction of the additional expressway lanes will then begin to complete the full six-lane capacity for the entire stretch.
The CAVITEX C5 Link provides efficient access to NAIA and C5, via key interchanges at the R1 Expressway (Coastal Road), Sucat Road (Dr. A Santos Avenue), and C.P. Garcia Avenue (C5 Road). The expressway is projected to serve around 36,000 motorists daily.
By diverting heavy traffic, including commercial trucks, the expressway eases congestion on major arterial roads across Cavite and southern Metro Manila. It also strengthens the logistics link between the industrial hubs of Cavite and the commercial centers of the National Capital Region, supporting regional economic growth.
Segment 3B will be free for all classes until further announcement. Motorists will only pay the existing toll fees for CAVITEX C5 Link Segments 2, 3A-1, and 3A-2. Any updates will be announced by the Toll Regulatory Board (TRB) in coordination with CAVITEX management. (Photo credit: DOTr & Presidential Communications Office)
The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) Regional Statistical Services Office IV-A, in partnership with PSA Batangas, successfully conducted a Civil Registration System (CRS) Mobile Outlet/Service at the Talisay Municipal Hall on March 25, 2026.

Residents of Talisay and nearby areas benefited from the convenient and accessible service, eliminating the need to travel to distant PSA outlets.
The initiative forms part of PSA’s ongoing efforts to improve public service delivery and ensure that civil registration documents are readily available to all Filipinos, particularly those in underserved areas.
PSA RSSO IV-A and PSA Batangas expressed their appreciation to the Local Government Unit of Talisay for its support and coordination, which contributed to the successful implementation of the mobile service.
The PSA remains committed to expanding its outreach activities to better serve communities across the region.

Binigyang-diin ni Senadora Loren Legarda ang kanyang panghabambuhay na adbokasiya sa pagtataguyod ng kapayapaan, kasabay ng paggunita sa kanyang mga dekadang karanasan sa pagmo-moderate sa mga lugar na may alitan, pakikipagnegosasyon para sa pagpapalaya ng mga bihag, at pagsusulong ng mga programang nagtataguyod ng kaunlaran mula sa mga kasunduang pangkapayapaan para sa mga komunidad na matagal nang napagkaitan ng batayang serbisyo.
Inilahad niya ang mensaheng ito bilang Guest of Honor and Speaker sa paglagda ng Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) para sa PAyapa at MAsaganang PamayaNAn (PAMANA) Program sa pagitan ng Office of the Presidential Adviser on Peace, Reconciliation and Unity (OPAPRU) at mga nagpapatupad na lokal na pamahalaan, na ginanap noong Marso 26, 2026 sa Foro de Intramuros.
“Negotiation may stop the gunfire for a time, but only development can prevent it from starting again,” ani Legarda.
Binalikan ni Legarda ang kanyang mga unang misyon sa Sorsogon, Lianga, Marilog, Kalayaan, at Jolo, kung saan isinapanganib niya ang kanyang buhay upang matiyak ang pagpapalaya ng mga pulis, sundalo, at mamamahayag.
“I placed myself in the middle of a crossfire with no script and no certainty about what would happen, focused only on the outcomes that the captives would return home alive, that we could open space for peaceful dialogue, and that I would return safely to my children,” kuwento ni Legarda.
Nakipagtulungan din ang four-term kina yumaong Jesus Varela at Tomas Millamena ng Iglesia Filipina Independiente sa pagpapalaya kay Army Major Noel Buan, at kalaunan ay sa pagpapalaya ng mga mamamahayag na sina Arlyn dela Cruz, Ces Drilon, at Jimmy Encarnacion.
Binigyang-diin niya na ang kapayapaan ay dapat pinatatatag sa pamamagitan ng pagtugon sa kahirapan, kakulangan sa inklusyon, kawalang-katarungan, at kakulangan ng oportunidad.
“We stood firm that we would not validate abduction as a business model. We did not agree to ransom, instead, we committed to bring development assistance to communities long deprived of basic services,” ani Legarda.
Bilang isang propesyonal sa pambansang seguridad na nagtapos bilang top ng kanyang klase sa National Defense College of the Philippines, binigyang-diin ni Legarda na ang seguridad ay tungkol sa pagtiyak ng mga kondisyong pumipigil sa muling pagsiklab ng alitan.
Ang PAMANA Program ang pangunahing programa ng pamahalaan para sa pagsasanib ng kapayapaan at kaunlaran na nakatuon sa mga komunidad na apektado ng alitan at mga liblib na lugar.
Mula 2011, nakapaglaan na ang PAMANA ng mahigit ₱75.8 bilyon na pamumuhunan para sa mga komunidad na apektado ng alitan, kabilang ang mga kalsada, tulay, pabahay, serbisyong pangkalusugan, at mga proyektong pangkabuhayan. Nakasaad sa MOA ang mga kinakailangan sa operasyon, pag-uulat, at post-implementation para sa maayos na pagpapatupad ng mga proyekto, na nagsisiguro ng malinaw na koordinasyon at pananagutan ng mga katuwang na ahensya.
Bilang Chairperson ng Senate Committee on National Defense and Security, Peace, Unification, and Reconciliation, at Chair ng Senate Committee on Culture and the Arts, pinagtibay ni Legarda ang ganitong pamamaraan sa pamamagitan ng Senate Bill No. 532 na naglalayong gawing institusyon ang Transitional Justice and Reconciliation Program para sa Bangsamoro, at sa karagdagang ₱850 milyon sa 2026 General Appropriations Act upang palawakin ang Educational Assistance Program ng OPAPRU.
“Through education, we aim to reduce the appeal of violence and expand the horizon of what is possible for the next generation of Filipinos,” ani Legarda.
Tinapos ni Legarda ang kanyang talumpati sa panawagan sa mga lokal na pamahalaan na tiyakin ang inklusibo at transparent na pagpapatupad ng mga proyektong PAMANA.
“Peacebuilding requires the careful rebuilding of trust where none existed and the delicate balancing of principle and pragmatism in the face of real and unavoidable danger,” Legarda concluded.
Sa isang press conference na ginanap sa Philippine Information Agency (PIA), opisyal na inilabas ng DOST-Philippine Science High School (PSHS) System ang mga resulta ng National Competitive Examination (NCE) para sa Taong-Paaralan 2026-2027.
