The proposal gives seniors and people with disabilities a 20 % discount and VAT exemption on most purchases, a 15 % discount on the first 100 kWh of electricity and 30 m³ of water each month, free medical and dental care in government facilities, free training, and tax breaks for employers. It also creates a digital app (eGov PH) to manage IDs and discounts, and requires businesses to record discounted sales on the app. The law takes effect 15 days after publication, with a 12‑month transition period for agencies.
