How to improve the economy of the barangay

If you have an article that talks about the improvement of the economy of your community, your article can be posted here. If you come across any news item that talks about the economy of your community, it may be posted here. Any improvement to transportation, power and service usually improves the economy of the community, so go ahead and report that too.

The barangay council is the key to the development of the community. The leadership of the council rests on the barangay chairman. There is no need to wait for the municipality mayor or city mayor to invite or entice business to your barangay. The barangay captain or kagawad should approach business men/women or entrepreneurs and encourage them to do business in this barangay.

Just sitting around waiting for things to happen will not improve the economy. Do not depend on the city or municipality council to come up with ideas. Come up with your own. The barangay is the keystone of the Philippine economy.
