production costs, become competitive and earn a respectable

PROBLEMS FACED BY LGU-ALABAT
IN SHAPING CHANGE
1. LIMITED LIVELIHOOD OPPORTUNITIES FOR
COCONUT FARMERS
•A farmer earns Php1,500/month/hectare for copra
•This is BELOW the poverty threshold of Php8,900 in Alabat
•One cause of poverty among the farmers is the incomplete
support of government in the supply chain:
PRODUCTION PROCESSING MARKETING
With strong
Government
support
Controlled by traders, manufacturers,
and big businessmen so the LGU has to enter
to protect the farmers.

Prospects to Alleviate Poverty: Coco Sugar ProductionOne hectare of coconuts can potentially employ:
Six (6) Sap Harvesters – Average of Php10,000/month
Three (3) Cooks – Php9,000/month
Owner-manager - ~Php21,000/month

Prospects to Address Poor Government Service • Partnerships with the Civil Service Commission to conduct seminars (Lingkod
Bayani Program)
• Partnerships with FOCIG and CCF for values formation within the local government
system.
Daily bible study before going to work
Declared Alabat as “Bayan ng Diyos.”

3. There is too much POLITICS
That’s why I remained independent.
There is always a massive political shift favouring those
who are in power (i.e., 2013 and 2016 National Elections)
There are too many political parties in the Philippines – You
cannot distinguish the ideologies being pursued by the
political parties.

Prospects:
FEDERALISM?National Agencies - Centralized
allocation of resources
Local Government Units –
bigger responsibilities and
accountabilities; direct and
immediate impact on the lives of
the people

4. Security
PNP: politically controlled; need to revisit “single police”
policy; incapable in handling insurgency;
AFP: No police power but tasked to handle insurgency;
training is to kill, search and destroy vs. foreign aggressors

5. Overlapping Programs of Agencies and no agency is focused
in integration at the local level
The local government unit does the integration but we are
not fully aware of what programs are available that can be
awarded and availed of.

6. The Local Government Code
The LGU Code gave more authority and responsibilities to the
local governments but it is not accompanied with enough
resources to actually implement programs.
One example is the devolution of Agriculture and Health. The
support is only for salaries and wages of these devolved
agencies.

7. There are good concept programs like the Bottom-upBudgeting, but it is VERY SLOW in implementation.
Programs are well-processed; a series of consultations to concernedproponents are conducted before creating a proposal.
Failure in implementation:>Agencies are too cautious and very slow (2015 BuB Programs are not
yet fully implemented)>Lack of trust to the LGUs – the agencies themselves want to
implement>Some programs in the BuB Menu are not suitable to the
city/municipality or they cannot be implemented completely.>Now, Assistance to Disadvantaged Municipalities (ADM) is being
implemented, downloading funds directly to the local government.

8. Lack of capable LGU PersonnelMost projects are slow to implement and new projects
from government agencies cannot be availed by theLGU due to incapable staff (i.e., having difficulty in thecreation of well-made project proposals, lack ofmanagement and leadership skills)Trained and capable LGU staff search for greener
pastures that leads to brain drain which is a very commonoccurrence.

9. In terms of food production:
The average age of our farmers today is 57 years old while our
youth are steering away from jobs that are agricultural in nature.
This trend can ultimately affect our food production and wil
pose a threat to food security in our country.

There is a STRONG AND URGENT NEED
to empower the Local Government Units
to address the issues and challenges
hindering inclusive growth in the
grassroots. The LGU – being very close to
the people – can easily make its actions
and programs felt by the populace.

APPEAL TO FELLOW PUBLIC
SERVANTS:
Let us SPARK THE FIRE OF CHANGE
in our respective families, communities,
offices, and agencies to become more
relevant to God, to country, and people.
