EXAMPLES OF ACTIONS AND ACTIVITIES THAT  PROMOTE INTEGRITY IN GOVERNMENT

LOCAL GOVERNMENT TRANSPARENCY

During his 18 years as mayor of Naga City, current Department of the Interior and Local Government Secretary Jesse Robredo  was always known as a champion of transparency, accountability and people participation. One just has to visit their city’s official website to see that all financial transactions, biddings and purchases made by the city government are posted for the general public to see and scrutinize.

Aside from this, Robredo also institutionalized the formation of the Naga City People’s Council (NCPC), an organization composed of representatives from different NGOs, business groups and private organizations whose main task is to work with the local government to ensure that proper consultation is always done before major decisions are made.

These best practices in good governance has led to the transformation of Naga as the most progressive city in the Bicol region and has also garnered for the city more than 100 national and international awards. Robredo was also the first local government leader in the Philippines to receive the prestigious Ramon Magsaysay Award for Government Service.

Thus, it was no wonder that during his first few months in office as DILG Secretary, Robredo made it a priority to issue a memorandum circular requiring all local government units to fully disclose their budget and how they are spending it to their constituents. Clearly, this initiative is in line with the campaign promise of President Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III to curb graft and corruption through the promotion of transparency and public accountability.

As a show of support for this laudable initiative by the DILG to bring much needed reforms in our local government units, the House of Representatives and the Senate both approved the inclusion of this provision in the General Appropriations Act for the 2011 budget.  --

ehemx.jpg

Ehem -- the anti-corruption initiative of the Philippine Jesuits echoes the urgent call for cultural reform against corruption in the Philippines.
Ehem aims at bringing people to a renewed sensitivity to the evil of corruption and its prevalence in ordinary life. It seeks ultimately to make them more intensely aware of their own vulnerability to corruption, their own uncritiqued, often unwitting practice of corruption in daily life.
Ehem hopes to bring people, in the end, to a commitment to live the way of Ehemplo --- critical of corruption, intent on integrity!
