BICOL Saro Party-list Rep. Brian Raymund Yamsuan has pushed for the passage of a bill that would grant cash incentives to creative industry workers such as filmmakers, literary writers and other performers who will win major awards in international competitions.
Under House Bill (HB) 1934, which he co-authored, a P1 million cash grant will be given to artists who have garnered the highest award in film festivals, exhibitions, and other prestigious contests.
