In personal finance, we always remind people of the importance of KNOWING WHERE YOUR MONEY IS GOING. List your expenses down to the last centavo.
Our taxes are our money. We should know where it is going – down to the last centavo. If there is no clear accountability, the PDAF should be immediately suspended INDEFINITELY!!! It’s just simple good governance. What moral ascendancy does the government have in enforcing tax collection if it cannot be held accountable for expenditures?
Million People March – If you are in Metro Manila I highly encourage you to join the indignation rally this August 26, 9am at the Luneta Grandstand. No group colors. No political parties. No speeches. Just all of us ordinary tax-paying people showing government they answer to us.
Simultaneous events are also happening in Iloilo, Zamboanga and Cebu.
If you cannot physically be present, sign the Change.org petitions re pork barrel, good governance, accountability & transparency.
