Villanueva alarmed over NFA’s lapses in rice procurement: Sen. Joel Villanueva on Tuesday expressed alarm over the lapses and irregularities of the National Food Authority (NFA) when it comes to its rice procurement process. “The NFA seriously needs to improve the implementation of its rice procurement policies. These lapses are simply inexcusable since we are talking about food security. Our government should look after the welfare of our kababayans and ensure that there is food on the table of every Filipino,” Villanueva lamented during the Senate probe on the alleged NFA rice shortage.
