Para sa mga nagtatanong saan daw napunta ang mga inutang ng gobyerno, ito ang mga numero

Galing sa Cash Operations Report ng Bureau of Treasury at NCA Utilization Report ng DBM ang mga ito. Ni-rank na ni Luis Abad from highest to lowest para mas madaling intidihin.
[2] No matter how disappointed we are about how this crisis has been handled, let’s not always jump to the conclusion that the money was pocketed by politicians.
[3] Yes, it’s possible that there’s corruption there somewhere at walang problema sa vigilance pagdating sa kaban ng bayan. But take time to look at the numbers too. Mas mabuting informed ka kung makikialam ka.
[4] Kapag tumingin ka sa mga ganitong numero, malalaman mo hindi lang kung sino-sino ba talaga ang mga dapat siningilin. Makikita mo rin nasaan pa ang posibleng pagkukulang sa paggastos.
[5] Kung gusto mo ng mas marami pang detalye, tingnan mo rin ang COVID19 Budget Tracker nina @KenAbante
[6] Example ng kulang sa paggastos: DOLE

Ang baba ng spending pero sobrang taas ng unemployment. Ang daming uuwi na OFW repatriates na walang trabaho. Ang dami rin sa kanilang nastranded sa ilalim ng NAIAX last time. Lahat iyan kelangan gastusan.
[7] Sapat ba ang 11.1B kung kasama pa dyan ang CAMP at TUPAD at regular operations ng DOLE?? Obvisouly hindi.
[10] Remember the uproar among public nurses and teachers about the disparity between the base pay of civilian and uniformed personnel of gov’t?

They protested against that, and rightfully so. Duterte’s move distorted the gov’t salary scheme.
[11] A couple of years back we wrote an analytical paper on the 2018 Budget of the Duterte administation. Why begin with with 2018 Budget and not the 2017 Budget, you might ask?

That’s bec the 2018 Budget was the first budget fully crafted by the current admin.
[9] But even if that’s the case, DND and DILG didn’t use to be among the top 5 department with the highest budget.

When did that happen? Based on out analysis, we saw this pattern emerged when Duterte increased the base pay of the police and military back in 2018.
