Ping: Panahon na Para Ibigay sa LGUs ang Procurement at Implementasyon ng Proyekto

Para maiwasan ang korapsyon at maling paggastos ng pondo, napapanahon na para ipasa ng gobyerno sa lokal na pamahalaan ang pagbili ng supplies at implementasyon ng kani-kanilang proyekto, ayon kay Senador Ping Lacson nitong Miyerkules.

Ayon kay Lacson, marami nang nagawang maling desisyon ang mga pambansang ahensya ng gobyerno sa procurement, kabilang na ang paglipat ng P42 bilyon sa Department of Budget and Management Procurement Service (PS-DBM), kung saan nakakuha ng bilyun-bilyong kontrata ang mga kahina-hinalang kompanya tulad ng Pharmally Pharmaceutical Corp. sa kabila ng kakulangan sa qualifications.

“Why don’t we devolve the procurement of medicines, drugs and other items? It’s about time. Time and again we have witnessed bad procurement by the DOH and other line agencies,” ani Lacson sa deliberasyon ng Senado sa P5.024-trilyong national budget para sa 2022.

Lacson: Time to Devolve Procurement, Project Implementation Functions to LGUs

To prevent corruption and underutilization of the national budget, it is high time that the government devolve its procurement of supplies and implementation of projects to the local government units, Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson said Wednesday.

Lacson said national agencies have shown bad procurement decisions, including the transfer of P42 billion to the Department of Budget and Management’s Procurement Service – which in turn allowed shady firms such as Pharmally Pharmaceutical Corp. to bag multibillion-peso contracts despite lack of qualifications.

“Why don’t we devolve the procurement of medicines, drugs and other items? It’s about time. Time and again we have witnessed bad procurement by the DOH and other line agencies,” he said at the Senate deliberation on the P5.024-trillion budget for 2022.

Ping: Mas Kailangan ng Inklusibong Badyet sa Gitna ng Pandemya

Dahil sa pandemya, mas naging importante ang pagkakaroon ng inklusibo at development-oriented na badyet kung saan may partisipasyon sa paggawa ng panukalang badyet ang mga makikinabang nito sa lokal na lebel, ayon kay Senador Ping Lacson nitong Lunes.

Bilang tugon sa “Budget Serye 2021” ng Social Watch Philippines, sinabi ni Lacson na ang badyet ang pinakaimportanteng kasangkapan para matugunan ang mga problema ng lipunan na mas pinalala pa ng pandemya.

“The national budget is the government’s most important tool in achieving its goals, especially in the midst of an unprecedented health crisis when all our social, economic and political problems have magnified into massive scale,” aniya.
