Duterte said the budget reaffirms the government’s strong commitment to improve the living condition in the country. “This will also cement this administration’s legacy of real change for future generations, guided by the three main pillars of building resilience amid the pandemic, sustaining the momentum towards recovery, and continuing the legacy of infrastructure development,” he said.
He said there is no better way to serve the public but by giving them the honest, efficient and responsive government that they deserve. Duterte also lauded the timely ratification by Congress of the national budget and recognized the efforts of government agencies, civil society partners, and other civil servants who took part in crafting the important legislation.
The president noted that the passage of the General Appropriations Act of 2022 reflects the healthy collaboration among all branches of government, which is crucial to the attainment of the administration’s national development goals, especially as the country confronts multiple challenges.
