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.

Natural Resources of Parañaque City, Philippines
- Protect the environment
It is sad but true that as of the year 2012 the rivers of the Philippines continue to be the #1 Sewer Systems of the Philippines.
Protect & Save the Rivers. Do not let your sewer drain into the river. Your community can be the first to initiate this project.
Build your riverbank protection with a built-in gutter system. Reforest within Ten Years - Guaranteed!
Let us plant more trees in every barangay in the entire Philippines. It does not make any difference if the barangay is urban, partially urban or rural; we need more trees. Trees will prevent erosion, provide oxygen, prevent green house effect, and even a place of business for the shade tree mechanic.
The Philippines is a tropical country and practically anything will grow. The DENR has the planting trees project that goes on every year. Lots of picture taking for the media. Planting trees one by one is the "human" way of doing it. This individual planting of trees is good if done to "line" the roads and highways with trees or along fences or property divisions, or if you have a plantation.
To reforest the nation of the Philippines we have to plant trees the "mother nature" way. Sow the seeds during the rainy season. Go deep into "bald" forests and plant trees by sowing seeds. If there's not enough volunteers to do this, use the military helicopters to fly over the designated areas and sow the seeds.
Guaranteed within a few years, The Philippines will be lush again. >>Read More
We are using our rivers as our sewer system. If you ask a Filipino, "Are the Filipinos a clean people?" The answer is an automatic, "Yes!". However, the Filipinos are suffering from the same disease or attitude as most people do, and that is the "NIMBY" disease or "NIMBY" attitude. (NIMBY) Not In My Back Yard. So it is OK to dump my garbage and sewer there. Not mine! Someone else will take care of it.
This attitude is killing our rivers. Your great-grandparents, grandparents or parents were once proud to tell the stories of how they enjoyed swimming in the river behind your house or nearby. However, you can't say the same or tell the same stories to your kids or grand kids. Why? Because your generation is killing the river.

We have so much water in the Philippines and yet very little to drink.
Instead of relying too much on Diesel fuel and Coal to generate the majority of Philippine's Electrical energy Supply, we can concentrate more on renewable and sustainable source of energy such as: Hydro Power, Solar Power, and Wind Power and thermal energy conversion. We have too many black outs.

Kaya Iloilo sweeps Group B in Copa '21
MANILA – Kaya Iloilo pipped Mendiola with a 6-0 beating on Wednesday night to complete a sweep of Group B action in the Copa Paulino Alcantara at the PFF National Training Centre in Carmona.
A Jovin Bedic brace in the first half set the tone for the inaugural tournament champ even as the club netted three goals in each of the two halves to seal the top seed in its group ahead of the semifinals next week.
Bedic capitalized on an erroneous Mendiola attempt to keep the ball out of his reach and quickly raced inside the penalty box to open the scoring for Kaya Iloilo in the 11th minute.

Another Parañaque slum colony braces for demolition

Armed with plastic bags filled with human waste, residents of Tucuma community in Barangay (village) Merville, Parañaque City, were already up at 6 a.m. Thursday, prepared to defend their houses from being torn down.
The day came and went, however, without the demolition team making an appearance.
The 1,000 families living in the compound have been bracing for a standoff with authorities since the start of the week after they received a court order for the demolition of their houses.
According to the order from the Parañaque Municipal Trial Court Branch 78, the demolition was supposed to push through Thursday.
The court, however, could not be reached for comment on why its order was not implemented.
On the other hand, Senior Superintendent Billy Beltran, Parañaque police chief, told the Inquirer in a phone interview that no one had coordinated with them about providing security to the demolition team, not even the court.
Guards stationed at the only entrance to Tucuma compound also did not know when the demolition of houses in the area would push through.
“No one talked to us about the supposed demolition. However, if the sheriff arrives with a proper demolition order, we will let them in,” said Mauro Papa, one of the guards employed by Molave Development Corp., the firm which owns the property.
The Tucuma lot is just one of four pieces of land owned by the company, which is run by the Tinitigan family of Parañaque.
Papa and the other security guards are stationed at the only entrance to the property—a small iron gate that leads to rows and rows of shanties.
Access to the compound is strictly controlled, with residents required to present a gate pass upon entry.
Inside the compound, Ramil Asturias, along with other residents, said that they have been watching out for the demolition team for days.
“Even if no one came to demolish our houses today, we [will remain] alert and vigilant in case they come in the next days,” he added.
“We have lived peacefully here for years but we will resist any attempt to forcibly evict us from our homes,” Asturias said.
He also reiterated their plea for Parañaque Mayor Florencio Bernabe Jr. to intervene in the matter. According to the residents, the Tucuma lot is a government-owned property by virtue of an ordinance issued in 2000.
For his part, Bernabe admitted that an ordinance seeking the expropriation of the lot was approved in 2000 although it was opposed by the Tinitigan family and their firm.
“It (the ordinance) was challenged in court twice, and in both times, the family won. So the land is still with the family. It is still private property,” he said.
On Monday, a violent clash between residents of Silverio Compound, also in Parañaque City, and policemen securing a demolition team left a resident dead and 39 others injured.
