And the Most Improved Nation in the ASEAN is ........(drum roll pls...). - The Philippines! Now imagine the discretionary pork barrel fund is replaced with specific, transparent (with competitive, honest bidding for projects) pre-identified bottom-up budgeting. Imagine the taxes and funds are really channeled towards creating a more-informed citizenry (Internet for all especially the poor, so they can vote more wisely), poverty alleviation, job creation, infrastructure development to mitigate disasters, corrupt politicians being shamed and being imprisoned.... I imagine the Philippines zooming further.
