SWS: 49% of Filipino families consider themselves poor in June
Forty-nine percent of Filipino families viewed themselves as poor in June, which is one point lower than the previous survey in April, according to the Social Weather Stations (SWS) on Friday. SWS said the June figure represents 13.7 million Filipino families, down from 14.1 million in April. ''The one-point decline in the nationwide Self-Rated Poverty between April 23-28, 2025 and June 25-29, 2025 was due to declines in the Visayas and Balance Luzon (or Luzon outside Metro Manila), combined with increases in Mindanao and Metro Manila,'' SWS said. Of the families who identified as poor, 34.8% never experienced being non-poor (''always poor''), 6.4% were non-poor five or more years ago (''usually poor''), and 7.8% were non-poor one to four years ago ("newly poor"). The June 25-29, 2025 survey also found the percentage of borderline families at 10%, up 2 points from the record low of 8% in the April 23-28, 2025 poll. Forty-one percent of the 1,200 respondents said they were not poor, which is 1% less than the record high 42% in April. SWS said 41% of families rated themselves as food-poor, 10% as food borderline, and 49% not food-poor. The median family expenses in June remained the same (house rent at P3,000, transportation to work and school at P2,000, and internet at P800) except for mobile phone load, which decreased from P400 to P300. For the June survey, SWS conducted interviews with respondents in Metro Manila, Balance Luzon (or Luzon outside Metro Manila), the Visayas, and Mindanao. There were 300 respondents in each geographical area. The sampling error margins are ±3% for national percentages and ±6% each for Balance Luzon, Metro Manila, the Visayas, and Mindanao. —VBL, GMA Integrated News

Construction of Bataan-Cavite bridge to start before 2025 ends —Marcos
The multi-billion dollar bridge project connecting the provinces of Cavite and Bataan will begin construction before the end of 2025, President Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos Jr. said Monday. The Bataan-Cavite Interlink Bridge project, envisioned to be one of the world's longest maritime bridges, is set to be bankrolled through a multi-tranche financing scheme, under which $2.1 billion will be financed by the Asian Development Bank, while $1.14 billion will be co-financed by the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank. 'Bago matapos ang taon, magsisimula na ang Bataan-Cavite Interlink Bridge. Ang tulay na ito ay tatlumpu't dalawang kilometro ang haba, at tatawid ng Manila Bay,' Marcos said in his fourth State of the Nation Address (SONA) at the Batasang Pambansa in Quezon City. (Before the year ends, the construction of the Bataan-Cavite Interlink Bridge will begin. This 32-kilometer-long bridge will stretch across the Manila Bay.) 'Kung ang biyahe ngayon mula Mariveles hanggang Naic ay umaabot nang limang oras, balang araw ito ay magiging apatnapu't limang minuto na lamang,' the President said. (If the current travel time from Mariveles to Naic is five hours long, it will be shortened to just 45 minutes.) Spanning a distance of 32.15 kilometers, the project is poised to provide a strategic convergence between Regions III and IV-A, fostering greater economic growth and improved tourism. The project will be divided into seven contract packages, with the construction to begin first in the two on-land packages. Package 1 is the 5-kilometer Bataan Land Approach, and Package 2 is the 1.35-kilometer Cavite Land Approach. Packages 3 and 4 are marine viaducts in the north and south with a total length of 20.65 kilometers. Packages 5 and 6 are the North Channel and South Channel Bridges with lengths of 2.15 and 3.15 kilometers, respectively. The seventh package involves project-wide ancillary works. The 32.15-kilometer, four-lane inter-island bridge will connect Barangay Alas-asin in Mariveles, Bataan, and Barangay Timalan Concepcion in Naic, Cavite. The bridge will have two navigational bridges, the 400-meter North Channel Bridge and the 900-meter South Channel Bridge, that are expected to traverse Corregidor Island. About 80% of the structure will be over the sea. —VBL, GMA Integrated News
