Batangas engineer office



LUNGSOD NG BATANGAS CITY, Hunyo 27 (PIA) -- Patuloy ang mga tauhan ng city engineers office (CEO) sa

paglilinis ng mga kanal sa iba't ibang bahagi ng lungsod upang maiwasan ang pagbaha tuwing malakas ang

ulan at panahon ng bagyo.

Sinabi ni Gemma Nuez, inhinyero ng CEO, na ang paglilinis ng mga kanal ay isang regular na gawain ng

kanilang tanggapan kung saan may eskedyul sa paglilinis kasama ang mga barangay na may kahilingan nang

paglinis ng mga kanal.

Lagi rin silang nakahanda kung sakaling may mga hindi inaasahang pangyayari sa panahon ng kalamidad.

Aniya pa, sapat ang kanilang mga kagamitan tulad ng pala, kalaykay at garbage trailers na siyang ginagamit

upang maalis ang mga basurang bumara sa mga kanal.


10/34

Isa sa mga lugar na matinding bahain ay ang kahabaan ng P. Burgos St. kung saan halos dalawang bangka ng

basura ang nakukuha dito.

Bagamat mahigpit na ipinatutupad ang Batangas City environment code, hindi pa rin maiwasan na

magkaroon ng mga basura ngunit malaking porsiyento na nito ang nabawas buhat ng ipatupad ang naturang

batas.

Malaking bulto rin ng basura ang mga nabubulok na isda at gulay sa bahagi ng bagong palengke kung kaya't

nagpaalala ang CEO na huwag bastang itambak ang mga basurang tulad nito na nagiging sanhi ng pagbara sa

mga kanal at hindi magandang amoy sa kapaligiran.

Sinabi pa ni Nunez na ang kanilang pagkilos ay upang maiwasan na ang lungsod ay matulad sa Maynila na

kaunting ulan lamang ay lampas tuhod na ang baha.

Muli din nitong ipinaalala sa mga Batangueno na ang basurang ikinakalat sa mga lansangan at kanal ay

maaaring magbigay ng kapahamakan sa mga susunod na panahon kung kaya't patuloy ang paghikayat nila

na mag-segregate ng basura at maglinis ng kapaligiran. (Ulat mula kay Bounvurt Macaraig-

LUNGSOD NG BATANGAS, Hunyo 27 (PIA) --Bibigyang pansin ng pamahalaang panlalawigan katuwang ang

mga miyembro ng Sangguniang Panlalawigan ang agrikultura at turismo sa probinsiya.

taong ito ay mas bibigyan ng pansin ang sektor ng agrikultura at turismo.

Aniya, noong nakaraang mga taon ay unang tinutukan ang kalusugan at edukasyon kung saan isinaayos ang

mga serbisyo ng mga ospital,health centers,paaralan at pinondohan ang mga pangangailangan ng parehong

sektor upang makasapat sa serbisyong para sa mga Batangueno.

Natapos na din ang pagpopondo sa mga kalsada at pagawing pang-imprastraktura at inaasahang sa mga

susunod na taon ay ang lalawigan ang unang probinsya na nakumpleto ang pagsasaayos ng mga provincial

roads.

na daan ang hinahanap kung kaya't inuna ng pamahalaang panlalawigan ang mga proyekto kaugnay nito.

Ito ay upang mas lalo pang maraming nagnanais magnegosyo ang pumasok sa probinsya at magbibigay ito

President Benigno S. Aquino III cited the Development Academy of the Philippines for its innovative, technical andrelative programs to support the bureaucracy, saying the agency was a partner of government in effectingpermanent change in the way it conducts its business of governance.

In his speech keynoting the 40th Founding Anniversary of the DAP, the President said that these programs haveempowered public servants to be effective, dedicated and trustworthy deliverers of genuine service to the people.

While I may be Chief Executive of the country, it is certainly not within my abilities to personally oversee each andevery office in the country. So I must rely on good managers men and women in all levels of governmentwhotake pride in their jobs and are able to fulfill their demands, towards serving our 'Bosses,' the Filipino people. This iswhere the DAP comes in ---through empowering public servants with the added learning, training, andcompetencies they need to meet their responsibilities, the President said.

From diploma courses for intelligence officers, to programs for senior managers and executives, to graduatedegrees with specializations in rural development, security, and local governancethe DAP has a wide variety ofprograms that support the bureaucracy, he added.

The President lauded the DAP for being an instrument for others to contribute to sustainable development andadvocacy of his Administration that includes inclusive growth.

In addition to this, you have also provided technical expertise for a number of governments efforts, including theResults-Based Performance Management System and the Performance Based Incentive System, and the craftingof Citizens Charters for government agencies and LGUs. Over the years, the DAP has truly become an instrumentfor others to contribute to sustainable development. On this occasion, allow me to extend my congratulations, andthanks, for your contributions, he said.

He challenged the men and women of the DAP to not become complacent and continually update and upgradethemselves in order to keep up with the times and changing environment.

This is an issue we must all be concerned with, especially now that things have changed in the Philippines. Theworld has already acknowledged the sea change in governanceour commitment to fighting corruption, institutinggood governance, and rendering true service, the President said.

The DAP can help to ensure the permanence of these changes, spurring a virtuous cycle of true public service ineach level of the government. After all, the people you educate are involved in the daily operations of governmentoffices, in implementing important projects, and in dealing directly with the public. They are the face of thegovernment; they are the ones who will show the ir countrymen that things have truly changed in the Philippines, hesaid.

Through your programs, you can foster in them a deep sense of responsibility and service. In this way, long after Istep down, government will continue to serve with integrity and pride, and keep us all from backsliding into thecorruption and impunity of the past. Never forget that you are an agency of empowerment. Never forget the role youplay in strengthening governanceand in so doing, strengthening the Philippines, the President further noted.

The DAP, a government owned and controlled corporation which was created by Presidential Decree No. 205 onJune 7, 1973, is mandated to: 1) generate pioneering, value-adding, synergistic ideas, concepts, principles,techniques and technologies addressing development problems of local, national and international significance; 2)capacitating individuals and development stakeholder organizations in government, the private sector, civil society,academe, and international organizations to perform their respective roles and mandates in development moreefficiently and effectively; and 3) promote partnerships and facilitate the integration of policies, plans, programs, andsystems towards a holistic perspective, through the conduct of training, education, policy/action-orientedresearches, consulting/technical assistance, and publications in good governance and productivity improvement.

programa tungo sa pagbabago, teknikal at mahalagang hakbang upang suportahan ang burukrasya kaya ito ay

tunay na kabalikat ng pamahalaan para magawa ang palagiang pababago sa pamamagitan ng mabuting

pamamahala.

Sa talumpati kaugnay ng ika-40 taon ng pagkatatag ng DAP, sinabi ng Pangulo na ang mga programang ito ang

naging daan para ang mga lingkod ng bayan ay maging masigasig, matapat at mapagkakatiwalaang tunay na

maglingkod sa sambayanan.

Bagaman ako ang Punong Tagapagpaganap ng bansa, hindi ko naman makakayang tuwirang pangasiwaan ang

bawat isang opisina sa bansa. Kaya sa mahuhusay na tagapamahala ako umaasamga lalaki at babae sabuong pamahalaan na marangal na tumutupad ng kanilang mga tungkulin at tugunan ang kailangan para

paglingkuran ang ating mga 'Boss,' walang iba kundi ang sambayanang Pilipino. At dito pumapasok ang DAPsa

pagbibigay sa mga lingkod ng bayan ng karagdagang kaalaman, pagsasanay at kakayahang kanilang kailangan

upang gampanan ang kanilang mga pananagutan, wika ng Pangulo.

Mula sa mga diploma courses para sa mga intelligence officers hanggang sa mga matataas na mga

tagapamahala para makatapos bilang mga dalubhasa sa kaunlaran ng kanayunan, kapanatagan at lokal na

pamamahalaang DAP ay may malawak na programang umaagapay sa burukrasya, dugtong pa ng Pangulo.

Pinuri ng Pangulo ang DAP sa pagiging istrumento upang ang iba ay patuloy na makapag -ambag sa kaunlaran

at sa pagtataguyod ng isinusulong niya na laganap na kasaganaan.

Binigyang diin ng Pangulo na ang DAP ay naging mabisang kasangkapan upang magpatuloy ang pag-unlad,

bukod pa sa pagkakaloob ng kasanayang teknikal para sa ginagawa ng pamahalaan na Results-Based

Performance Management System at Performance Based Incentive System, bukod sa paglikha ng Citizens

Charters para sa mga ahensiya ng gobyerno at mga lokal na pamahalaan.

Hiningi ng Pangulo sa mga tauhan ng DAP na huwag tantanan ang pagsisikap na lalo pang maihanda ang

kanilang sarili upang tugunan ang mga kailangan ng nagbabagong kapaligiran, lalo na ang puspusang pagbaka

sa katiwalian at ang hangaring magpatuloy ang mabuting pamamahala at tunay na paglilingkod sa taong bayan.

Sinabi ng Pangulo na ang DAP ang makatitiyak para manatili ang mga pagbabagong ito ukol sa tapat na

paglilingkod sa bayan ng lahat ng nasa pamahalaan.

Ipinahayag ng Pangulo ang pananalig niyang sa pamamagitan ng mga programa ng DAP ay mahahasik ang diwa

ng pananagutan at paglilingkod upang kahit matagal na siyang wala sa tungkulin, magpapatuloy pa rin ang

gobyerno sa paglilingkod nang marangal at matapat at hindi na babalik sa nakagawian nang nakalipas na

panahon ng katiwalian at pagsasamantala.

Huwag ninyong kalilimutan ang inyong ginagampanan para mapatatag ang pamamahalaat sa inyong

ginagawang ito ay kasabay ring tumatatag ang Pilipinas, dagdag ng Pangulo.

Ang DAP ay korporasyon ng pamahalaan na nilikha ng Presidential Decree 205 noong Hunyo 7, 1973 upang

hasain at ihasik sa isip ng lahat ng lingkod ng bayan ang katapatan at puspusang pag-aalay ng sarili sa higit namabisa, matapat at marangal na pagtupad sa tungkuling sinumpaan.

President Benigno S. Aquino III's Speech at the 40th Founding Anniversary of the Development Academy of

the Philippines (DAP)Assembly Hall, DAP Bldg., San Miguel Ave., Pasig City

27 June 2013

Maupo ho tayong lahat. Magandang umaga po.

Secretary Arci Balisacan; members of the Cabinet present; Mr. Antonio Kalaw, President of DAP; former chairmen,board of trustees, officials, staff of the Development Academy of the Philippines; fellow workers in government;honored guests; ladies and gentlemen:

Muli, magandang umaga po sa inyong lahat.

The Development Academy of the Philippines (DAP) traces its roots to Martial Lawa time when the organizingprinciple was to concentrate all agencies, instrumentalities, and powers of government in the hands of the

dictatorship.

Today, a little over 27 years after our nation reclaimed its democracy, the governing principle is the reverse: to placethe powers of government squarely in the hands of the people. Today, instead of working towards absolute power,we work for inclusive growth, peace, and stability, on the bedrock of accountability.

While I may be Chief Executive of the country, it is certainly not within my abilities to personally oversee each andevery office in the country. So I must rely on good managers men and women in all levels of governmentwhotake pride in their jobs and are able to fulfill their demands, towards serving our Bosses, the Filipino people. This iswhere the DAP comes in: through empowering public servants with the added learning, training, and competenciesthey need to meet their responsibilities.

From diploma courses for intelligence officers, to programs for senior managers and executives, to graduate degrees

with specializations in rural development, security, and local governancethe DAP has a wide variety of programsthat support the bureaucracy. In addition to this, you have also provided technical expertise for a number ofgovernments efforts, including the Results-Based Performance Management System and the Performance BasedIncentive System of which I intend to follow up with Secretary Abad [laughter] as to goal implementation, and thecrafting of Citizens Charters for government agencies and LGUs. Over the years, the DAP has truly become aninstrument to others to contribute to sustainable development. On this occasion, allow me to extend mycongratulations, and thanks, for all your contributions.

At the same time, your 40th anniversary also gives us a chance for reflection. Your institution is founded on the basictruth that one must never be complacent and that there are always ways to better our service to our countrymen. Inthe same vein, the DAP can never be complacent. As Mr. Kalaw said earlier, your institution was formed to be onethat looks at development issues and problems with global, futuristic, and non-traditional perspectives. Modules thatmay have been applicable ten, twenty, or forty years ago may not be as effective today. And while the basicrequirements of integrity and hard work remain unchanged, there are other, newer demands now being made ofgovernment workers.

Today, I challenge each and every one of you to ask these questions of yourselves: Am I training managers toperfect the art of red tape? Or am I empowering them to genuinely challenge convention towards improving oursystems? Am I reinforcing complacency and years of routine, or helping government workers find different ways ofsolving problems and contribute to the efficiency of their institutions? There is something I always remind mymanagers: the danger for any bureaucrat is to put red tape ahead of public service.

This is an issue we must all be concerned with, especially now that things have changed in the Philippines. Theworld has already acknowledged the sea change in governanceour commitment to fighting corruption, institutinggood governance, and rendering true service.

The DAP can help to ensure the permanence of these changes, spurring a virtuous cycle of true public service in

each level of government. After all, the people you educate are involved in the daily operations of governmentoffices, in implementing important projects, and in dealing directly with the public. They are the face of thegovernment; they are the ones who will show their countrymen that things have truly changed in the Philippines.Through your programs, you can foster in them a deep sense of responsibility and service. In this way, long after Istep down, government will continue to serve with integrity and pride, and keep us all from backsliding into thecorruption and impunity of the past. Never forget that you are an agency of empowerment. Never forget the role youplay in strengthening governanceand in so doing, strengthening the Philippines.

Once again, my congratulations on your 40th anniversary.

Before I end, may Ill just share a couple of thoughts. When I was looking at all of the programs that you are assistingwith, I think once again we were all deluged with a lot of acronyms. [Laughter] So much so that it has become its ownlanguage. [Laughter] And if we are supposed to use language to communicate, I wonder how many of us really have

memorized all of these acronyms so that we continue to communicate.

Im reminded of a commercial when I was youngeryoure 40 years now, you know 73 marked an important year inmy life. Of course, that was the first year after the imposition of Martial Law. It was the time I graduated from gradeschool. There was a sea change in my life.

Bottom line was there was a commercial that used to go like this, and to those of you who are roughly my generation,I think youll remember this.

It went, F-U-R-N-I-T-U-R-E. . All the people who are nodding have admitted they are part of my generation. I wouldlike to inform you that Domus, the fine furniture company, seems to be still operating. I saw a store with that name inGreenbelt. To those of you who are younger, I was also as perplexed when I first heard that commercial because wewere studying English and it said, F-U-R-N-I-T-U-R-E, and I couldnt understand it. So Secretary Julia Abad of the

PMS is tasked with providing me with a glossary of all of these acronyms. [Laughter] So I ask you, perhaps its timethat we studied all of these things, and try to come up with some system that even if its the first time youve heard


18/34

about it, somehow, the acronym will endeavor to encourage you to perform whatever is necessary, that much better.

And last point, Im sure youve seen all these new digital watches, which are called now wrist computers. And whyare they called wrist computers? Because in addition being a watch function, it also has instruments for readingbarometric pressure, or altitude, or a whole host of other things. Even with timeyou have timers, you havestopwatches, you have world time, you have multizone times. Bottom line is, when you get the watch, you get abouta half-inch worth of instructions. So you will probably be wearing the watch for one month before you understandhow to utilize 90% [laughter] of the functions of the watch you were so impressed with. So, each of these watchcompanies in turn provides both the manual and a quick guide, or a startup guide, so that you can utilize the watchright away. So my request to all of you is this: You have the time and the capacity to study all of the problemsbesetting the country to the minutest detail, but if it is left in a thesis presentation, locked up in some library, it doesnot help anybody. Perhaps we should focus that those who are responsible for running this country on a day-to-day

basis need a quick guide at the soonest possible time, and in their free times, can endeavor to more fully understandthe concepts that were illustrated in the quick guide. So together with a more thorough understanding of all of ourprojects, programs, and policies, and agencies and the quick guide perhaps we truly will be more effective to ourpeople.

Thank you. Good day.

President Benigno S. Aquino III's Speech at the 50th Anniversary of the National Irrigation Administration(NIA)

NIA open grounds, NIA Bldg. complex, EDSA, Diliman, Quezon City25 June 2013

Okey, maupo ho tayo lahat.

Secretary Proceso Alcala, Engineer Antonio Nangel, awardees of the National Irrigation Administration, farmers fromthe different regions present, officials and employees of the National Irrigation Administration, fellow workers in

government, honoured guests, mga minamahal ko pong kababayan: Magandang hapon po sa inyong lahat.

Sana hoy ikatutuwa pa niyo yung presensiya ko dito dahil alam naman niyo ako, di ako pabola -bola, hindi akopatumpik-tumpik, hindi ako paligoy-ligoy. Pag meron akong nakitang kailangang aksiyonan, ituturo ko sa inyokaagad. Pasensiyahan na ho tayo muna.

Batid po niyo na akoy naging kinatawan ng ikalawang distrito ng Tarlac at bilang kinatawan po, siyempre,pangkaraniwang hanapbuhay po sa Tarlac eh nagsasaka. At ngayon, merong mga ulap na tila nagbabadya na uulandito, naalala ko po ang mga kababayan ko sa Tarlac na talaga naman hong umaasa sa sahod-ulan. Napinsala ponung earthquake nung 1990 ang kanilang taniman, lalo na yung irrigation facilities, na yung natira po ay tinaposnaman ng Pinatubo pagputok kaya karamihan ho ng ating mga kababayan doon ay sahod-ulan umaasa. So, naalalako po yung isang pagkakataon na matagal na bago nagkaroon ng ulan, biglang umulan, yung akin pong barangay ayper se eh nagsasaka, ang laki po ng tuwa na nakita sa kanyang mukha na tila nabuhayan sila sa pagdating nungulan at ng tubig na kanyang dinadala.

Nang simulan po nating tahakin ang tuwid na landas, dinatnan natin ang isang Pilipinas na mistulang nagdaan saisang mahabang unos. Dahil sa pagbuhos ng kaliwat kanang korupsyon sa gobyerno, marami sa ating mgainstitusyon ang nasirat naiwang lubog sa kultura ng baluktot na pamamahala. Unti-unti nitong inagos palayo angserbisyong dapat sanay umaabot at natatamasa ng sambayanang Pilipino. Tuloy, ang naikahong kaisipan ngmamamayan: Mahirap, kung hindi man imposible na iahon ang kalunos-lunos na kalagayan ng ating lipunan.

Nang pumasok tayo sa pamahalaan, malinaw sa atin ang atas ng taumbayan: bungkalin ang pinaka-ugat ngproblema, puksain ang korupsyong kumakain sa bawat butil ng pagkakataon sa kaunlaran ng bansa, at itaguyod angpundasyon para sa tapat at mabuting pamamahala. Ang tanong po ngayon: Ano na nga ba ang sitwasyon natin sakasalukuyan? Sa kabila po ng mga pagbabagong naganap sa maraming kawanihan, mayroon pa rin pong hindinatututo, at nananatiling lugmok sa lumang sistema ng katiwalian at kawalang-pananagutan. Habang dumarami anghanay ng mga lingkod-bayang tapat sa kanilang sinumpaang tungkulin, mayroon pa ri ng mga kawanit pinunong

matitigas ang ulo, at itinuturing na libreng tiket sa panlalamang ang pagiging bahagi ng pamahalaan.

Sa tuwing dadalo po tayo sa anibersaryo ng mga ahensiya ng pamahalaan, itinuturing natin itong pagkakataonupang magbalik-tanaw sa kalagayan ng kanilang kawanihan. Saan ba tayo nanggaling; at nasaan na ba tayo saating misyon bilang isang institusyon? Ngayong araw, habang ipinagdiriwang natin ang ika-limampung taon ngNational Irrigation Administration, angkop din lang sigurong balikan at alalahanin ang mandato ng NIA sataumbayan. Limang dekada na po ang ahensya, at baka po may ilan ditong nakalimutan na ang tunay nilangtungkulin na pangasiwaan at paunlarin ang sistemang pang-irigasyon ng bansa, at maghatid-serbisyo sa mgamagsasaka.

Simulan po natin sa accomplishment rate ng NIA sa mga pinangakong bagong lupain na mapapatubigan or newareas for irrigation.Unang sipat pa lang po, kapansin-pansin na agad ang problema: mula 2001 hanggang 2009, niisang beses, ulitin ko po, ni isang beses ayon sa datos na binigay niyo sa amin, hindi naabot ng NIA ang nailatag na

taunang target. May mga taon, tulad noong 2005, na sa target ninyong 18,883 hectares, nasa 56 percent o 10,539hectares lamang ang mga bagong lupaing napatubigan. Noong 2006, nasa 40 percent naman, 8,989 hectares
http://www.pcoo.gov.ph/speeches2013.htmhttp://www.pcoo.gov.ph/speeches2013.htmhttp://www.pcoo.gov.ph/speeches2013.htm


19/34

lamang ang napatubigan mula sa target na 22,639 hectares ng bagong lupain. Suma-total po: sa aspektong ito,nasa 66 percent lang ang accomplishment rate ng NIA, hanggang katapusan ng 2009. Di po bat nakakapagtaka, nasa hinaba-haba ng panahon ng kanilang panunungkulan ay parang hindi nagawan ng kongkretong aksyon ang taun-taong kapalpakang ito? Baka naman po naging bisyo nang mangako at mapako ang pangako.

Tumungo naman po tayo sa kasalukuyan. Sa ilalim ng inyong Irrigation Services Development Program, sa targetninyong 37,759 hectares ng bagong lupain na mapatubigan noong 2011 ay 87 percent ang inyo nang natapos o32,824 hectares. Kung huminto ho yung istorya doon, ako poy nakangiti na sana. Ang problema, noong 201 2naman, sa target na 81,170 hectares, 52,372 hectares lang ng bagong lupain o 65 percent ang inyong napatubigan.Bumabalik naman tayo sa line of 6, baka naman bumalik pa tayo sa line of 3. Di po ba, kayo ang nagbigay ng sarilininyong target? At malinaw na hindi ninyo naabot ang mga ito. Siyempre, ang tanong bakit?

Halos tatlong taon na po tayong magkakasama sa administrasyong ito, at malamang ay kilala na ninyo ako, wala potayong panahon sa pambobola. Tatapatin ko po kayo: dismayado po dismayado popa rin ako, dahil hanggangngayon, lumalabas na kakarampot pa rin ang pagbabagong nangyayari sa National Irrigation Administration. Nasakalahati na po tayo ng ating termino, at mahirap naman po kung hanggang ngayon hindi mo pa rin alam ang gustomong gawin. Paano tayo aabot sa gusto nating paroonan.

Iniluklok ako ng sambayanan upang bantayan ang kalagayan ng bawat institusyon ng pamahalaan. Pero tao langdin po ako; hindi ako CCTV camera na beinte-kuwatro oras ay kayang magmanman sa kilos ng bawat institusyon nggobyerno. Pero sa nangyayari ngayon sa NIA, ang pakiramdam ko, kayo pa mismo ang nag-iimbita sa akingbantayan kayo nang maigi. (loud response from the crowd)Sa mga higit na nakakakilala sa akin, alam nilang walangtalab sa akin ang anumang pagdadahilan o pagpapalusot. Kaya kung nag-usap tayo, at may ipinangako ka,inaasahan kong tutuparin mo ang binitawan mong salita.

Isa pa pong halimbawa, o isang halimbawa, itong matagal nang nakabinbing Balog-Balog Dam Project sa Tarlac,(some reaction from the crowd) na popondohan po sana ng gobyernong Italy noong panahon pa ng aking ina.Noong 1990, nagkaroon ng lindol na sumira nganasabi ko sa inyo ulitsa mga kanal ng irigasyon sa Tarlac.Noong 1991 naman, sumabog ang Pinatubo at nasira ang natitirang bahagi ng sistemang pang-irigasyon. Dagdagpa dito, nagpapalit-palit ng liderato ang Italy, kaya naman naantala ang proyekto. Alam po niyo, panahon po niPresidente Ramos, sabi niya, hindi economically feasible. Pumasok si Presidente Erap, itinuloy ng bahagya.Pumasok ho si Ginang Arroyo, tinanong sa akin, Anong kailangan ng Tarlac? Sabi ko, Ipaaral po niyo tong Balog -Balog. Ang sabi niya sa akin, kung hindi ako nagkakamali, consider it done. Done na yung project, wala ng aral.Ako na po nakaupo, hindi pa tayo nagga-groundbreaking dito.

Sahod-ulan na lang ang inaasahan po ng mga kababayan ko sa Tarlac. Kaya naman napakahalaga ng irigasyon saBalog-Balog.Tanong po, ngayon na po ay dalawamput isang taon na ang nakalipas mula nang planuhin angproyekto sa Balog-Balog. Ilang administrasyon na po ang nagdaan? Hanggang ngayon, hindi pa rin ito umuusad.

Sa ngayon nga po, pagka-intindi ko, may private proponent na gusto tayong tulungan sa proyektong ito. May floodcontrol na, may irigasyon, at mayroon pang kuryente, at halos wala pong gastosang gobyerno rito. Tatlong taon napo tayo sa termino natin, pero hanggang ngayon, parang wala pa rin hong nangyayari. Ang hirap naman ho angpapamana ko sa mga kababayan ko sa Tarlac pagkatapos ng tatlong taong natitira sa aking termino. Pasensiya nakayo, hanggang ngayon, hindi ko pa naintindihan kung bakit walang nangyari diyan. Simple lang naman ho, sulit bato na pondohan ng gobyerno? Ito bay kapaki-pakinabang sa mamamayan? Kung ang sagot ay oo, abay dapatgawin na natin. Tama ho ba? (crowd response: Tama/applause) Kung hindi naman pasado sa mga specification atqualifications para maging government project, eh di ihinto na natin at huwag na nating paasahin ang mgakababayan natin sa hindi darating. Tama po ba? Pero ngayon, nasaan ho ba tayo? Hindi pa maliwanag yun.

Ano po ba dapat ang pakinabang nito? Kung sa sahod-ulan, alam po natin, isang harvest cycle lamang angmagagawa ng magsasaka kada taon kung nagtatanim ng palay. Pag may irigasyon, sa loob ng dalawang taon,maiaangat ang harvest cycle sa lima. Ngayon, kung may maayos na irigasyon, sa tatlong taon ng ating

panunungkulan, seven and a half harvest cycles ang magagawa ng ating mga magsasaka. Subalit ngayon, tatlongharvest cycles lang ang nagawa. Malinaw namang may 4.5 harvest cycles na naantala na sanay napapakinabanganna ng ating mga magsasaka. Bigas na, naging bato pa, sakit nga lang ho dito, pati yung batowala pa ho yata diyansa Balog-Balog. Ano po ba ang gusto nating isagot sa taumbayan kapag tinanong nilang Nasaan na ang mgaipinangako ninyo? Kaya Administrator Nangel, tulungan naman po ninyo akong patunayang kaya itong magawa.Kailangan ko po Kailan po kaya magiging realidad ang proyekto sa Balog -Balog? Pag-uwi ko po ba sa Tarlac, lalona pagretiro ko, nakatapos na kaya tayo ng groundbreaking? Malinaw naman po: Kapag gusto, walang imposible.Pero kapag ayaw, lahat imposible.

Mahalaga sigurong ipaalala: Itong mga target sa irigasyon ay hindi mga palamuting ikinakabit lamang sa dingding.Bawat target na hindi umuusad ay may kaakibat na mga magsasakang naiiwang nakatingala sa langit, at nauuwi nalamang sa pagdadasal na bumagsak ang tubig-ulan sa kanilang mga nauuhaw na pananim. Sa madaling salita: sainyo nakasalalay ang katuparan ng mga inisyatibang pang-agrikultura tulad ng pangarap ng bansang maging rice

self-sufficient at nakaatang din sa inyong balikat ang pagpapaunlad sa kabuhayan ng mga magsasaka.

Itinuturing ko pong magandang pagkakataon itongika-limampung anibersaryo ng National Irrigation Administrationupang diligan at payabungin pa ang ating paninindigang isulong ang makabuluhang pagbabago sa inyonginstitusyon. May tatlong taon pa ang ating administrasyon. Hinihikayat ko kayo, lalo na ang inyong mga pinuno:simulan na ninyo ngayon ang pagbabago sa kawanihang ito. Itaguyod ninyo ang kultura ng kahusayan at serbisyongmay pananagutan; diligan ninyo ng mabuting pamamahalat katapatan ang bawat proyektot inisyatiba. Ang hangadnatin: magtanim ng permanenteng pagbabago sa NIA, at sa bawat institusyon ng gobyerno, di lamang sa loob ngaking termino bilang Pangulo, hindi lamang sa susunod pang limampung taon ng inyong institusyon kung hindi pang-habang panahon. Hindi pa po huli ang lahat. Sa inyong anibersaryo, naway sumibol ang panibagong pagka kataonupang sama-sama nating mapalago ang kultura ng pagbabagong ating isinusulong sa tuwid na daan.

Ulitin ko po, kung medyo tumataas ang presyon ko, tatandaan na natin, bawat proyektong hindi nakumpuni, hindi

nagawa, bawat pangakong napako, may magsasakang tuloy ang paghihirap. At yun ay mali, iwasto po niyo.


20/34

Magandang hapon po. Maraming salamat sa lahat.

Statement by DBM Sec. Florencio B. Abad on Jan-May spending performance

Source:http://www.dbm.gov.ph

Its clear to us that government spending continues to be robust, backed by improved obligation rates

among key agencies and a stronger fiscal base to support critical expenditures.

Our performance for the first five months of the year is a strong indicator of the direction we intend to

take for the second semester. Were looking at accelerating disbursements further and, more crucially,

ensuring high-impact spending that will translate to direct, immediate, and sustainable benefits to

Filipinos.

It must also be noted that program budgeting has allowed us to approach expenditures in a strategic

convergent fashion, where projects are no longer funded as standalone initiatives or without any apparent

design. Instead, the budget supports programs comprehensively, and in accordance to the development
