The full digitalization of the government – including the removal of human intervention in government processes – holds the key to finally stop crime and corruption, former Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson stressed Tuesday.
Lacson noted that while several laws had been passed to end corruption – including those authored or sponsored by him – these could not be implemented because of such “human intervention.”
“I am glad with the President’s pronouncement that we are aiming for full digitalization of the government. Once we achieve this, we will have not only faster transactions but also less graft and corruption because there is no human intervention and everything is online,” he said in Filipino at a press conference of the Alyansa para sa Bagong Pilipinas senatorial slate in Pasay City.
