The Philippines has been a "decentralized" form of government since 1991, contrary to what most Filipinos think. Ever since the creation of Republic Act 7160, each LGU is responsible for its own domain. Even the smallest LGU the barangay creates its own Budget. It is not dependent on handouts from the city, municipality or province. "IMPERIAL MANILA IS A MYTH!", it does not exist anymore. The Philippine budget formulation system is not centralized. "Budgetary planning has been DECENTRALIZED since 1991". It is the responsibility of each LGU to submit their budgetary needs for review. Failure to submit is the problem.

History of Malolos City, Bulacan, Philippines

article below is copied verbatim from:www.bulacan.gov.ph/malolos

No other towns in the Philippines can be linked to the great patriots and heroes in the country's history more than Malolos—capital of the short-lived Philippine Republic. Such name as General Emilio Aguinaldo, Pedro A. Paterno, Dr. Jose P. Rizal and the del Pilars- Marcelo, Pio, and Gregorio, Apolinario Mabini, Antonio Luna, Felipe Calderon, and a host of others are forever engraved in the annals of Philippine History.

The name of Malolos was presumably derived from the Tagalog word "Paluslos", meaning " downwards". The name resulted from a misunderstanding among the first Spanish missionaries who reached the place. Searching for inhabited places along the Calumpit River, these priests came upon some natives of a riverside barrio (now Kanalate). They asked for the name of the place. The natives, not knowing the Spanish tongue, answered that the flow of the river in that part was downstream -"paluslos"-, which the Spaniards pronounced "Malolos". Corruption of the word through the years led to present "Malolos".

The town originated from a small settlement started by the Spanish missionaries. Later, after clearing forests and virgin lands, the settlement grew, and the population increased. After the construction of a big church, the place was made into a town. From the very beginning, Tagalog made up the majority of the Malolos populace. They were led by prominent families, among them the Gatsalians (Gatchalian), and the Manahans.

To cite all the historical events that transpired in Malolos, one could very well fill a good-sized book. The major events especially those that revolved around the first Republic, cannot be left unmentioned.

The wealth of Malolos lies not only in its more than four thousand hectares of fertile rice lands and more than two thousand hectares of fishponds, but in the character of its people as well. Its people have long been known for their diligence and ingenuity. In early days, farming and fishing took up most of the poultry, farming, pigeon rising, carpentry and woodwork, and other profitable cottage industries and handicrafts. A major factor in Malolos growth and development was the opening of the Manila-Dagupan railways in 1892. With the advent of the railroad came new ideas from Manila and other places. Another factor is Malolos proximity to industrial and business centers. Only 42 kilometers off from Manila, the town and its people are inevitable subjected to an influx of metropolitan thoughts.

In work methods and tools, it is estranged to find Malolos folk using a combination of the old and the new Ramshackle hops tremble to the whirl of modern electric-powered machines. Fishermen go out to the sea in the same dugouts their grandfathers used. Some of them have outboard motors. And handicraftsmen, woodworkers and weavers still follow the ageless techniques of their forefathers.

Senate bets promise to prioritize rehabilitation of water resources
By Dino Balabo (The Philippine Star)

MALOLOS CITY, Bulacan , Philippines – Senatorial candidates from the the Liberal Party (LP) and the Nacionalista Party (NP) yesterday promised to support the rehabilitation of water resources and infrastructure in the country.

LP senatorial candidate Dr. Martin Bautista said reforestation is the most effective way to retain water supply.

He also proposed a total ban on logging, establishment of seedling banks, compulsory tree planting for Filipinos aged 12 to 65, and dredging of waterways.

NP senatorial candidate Susan Ople, who comes from the coastal town of Hagonoy in Bulacan, said the country’s water resources should be rehabilitated to suit the changing climate because a slight rise in sea water levels can displace settlers of coastal towns and destroy their livelihood.

Neric Acosta, also from LP, said water supply is the foundation of economic development.

“Water is life itself. Without it, there would be no society,” he said.

Local candidates in the province also urged the protection of the Angat watershed, which is threatened by illegal logging.

The Angat Dam supplies 97 percent of Metro Manila’s water requirement.

Gubernatorial candidate Willy Alvarado said fishpond operators lose their fish stocks due to heavy runoff during typhoon season.

Edwin Santos, who is running for mayor of Obando, proposed the creation of a coastal road to link Obando to Navotas because 25 percent of the town becomes flooded during high tide and heavy rainfall.

“How can you develop a town like Obando when all dry land goes underwater?” he said.

Environmental group Greenpeace earlier stressed the need to upgrade water infrastructure to suit extreme weather events like the heavy flooding in the metropolis brought by tropical storm “Ondoy” in September last year, and the ongoing El Niño phenomenon.

Greenpeace called for the implementation of the Rainwater Harvesting law that was enacted in 1989.

The law mandates the Department of Public Works and Highways to construct rainwater collectors in every barangay.
