Senior Deputy Speaker Aurelio 'Dong' Gonzales 3rd tells The Manila Times that the role of Congress is not to give "ayuda" or aid, but to look for funding for government agencies.

He issued the statement following criticisms from some quarters that Congress is just all about giving aid to poor citizens.
