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.

Between Tetuan and Putik lies Guiwan Barangay from the city proper about 4.2 kms. This barrio got its name from the story which goes this way….
When the princess married a common man they eloped in this far away land where the princess gave birth to a son IWAN. But the couple moved farter way lest the angry king finds them there.
The king’s brother wrapped the throne and cruel soldier sought her far land wide till there was no more place to hide. They found the Princess GUIA and her son IWAN and threw them both to the river. She pleaded to the god of the river to take their lives but leave something behond. Then the princess and her son sunk deep, deep beyond...wailing, wailing, Guia-Iwan, Guia-Iwan. The god of the river granted her wish, the mother and son were turned into a land.
Natives who witnessed the change called the place GUIWAN, as a tribute to Guia and Iwan.
