LGU, Direktang Dadaluyan ng Pondo sa Panukala ni Ping

Direkta nang madadaluyan ng pondo buhat sa kaban ng bayan ang mga lokal na pamahalaan upang matustusan ang mga pangangailangan ng mga proyektong pampayamayanan na ipinatutupad ng mga ito.

Ito ay sa pamamagitan ng inaasahang mabilis na pagsasabatas sa Senate Bill 40 na pinamagatang Budget Reform for Village Empowerment Act of 2016 na isinulong ni Senador Panfilo Lacson sa hangaring magkaroon ng mas makatuwirang pondo para sa mga proyekto ang mga lokal na pamahalaan.

“It is hoped that by giving the LGUs the necessary wherewithal to be active participants in the development of our country, we will end the culture of mendicancy and political patronage that viciously thrive in our system,” paliwanag ni Lacson sa pagsasampa ng naturang panukala.
