Fig VII.4. Social Services Budget (2010–2015)

The Performance of the Aquino Administration (2010-2016) As seen in Table VII.5, below, basic education budget increased from Php161.4 billion in 2010 to Php412 billion in 2016 because of the introduction of the K-12 program. The allocation for DOH in 2016 was almost six times higher than the allotment before Aquino assumed the Presidency because of its Universal Health Care program and the expansion of PhilHealth coverage. The 600% increase in the DSWD budget can be attributed to the expansion of the coverage of its conditional cash transfer (CCT) program, one of the flagship programs of the Aquino administration continued from the Arroyo administration.

Good Governance and Anti-Corruption

The goals of the Good Governance and Anti-Corruption as outlined in the PDP, and stated in EO 43, are the following:

a. Upholding transparency in government transactions and our commitment to combating graft and corruption; b. Strengthening the capacity of government institutions to link their respective budgets with performance outcomes and enabling citizens and civil society to monitor and evaluate these; c. A professional, motivated and energized bureaucracy with adequate means to perform their public service missions; d. Improvement of public sector asset and resource management and revenue performance; and e. Establishing an improved policy and regulatory environment that will reduce the cost of doing business in the country and improve competition. (EO 43, 2011, Section 2)

Table VII.6 shows the results matrix of the strategic framework of the PDP 2011-2016 for the Good Governance Cluster. The “achieved” column results were culled from the 2015 Socioeconomic Report 2015 of the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA). Most indicators used in the strategic framework for the Good Governance dimension pertain to the improvement of the rankings in the World Governance Index (WGI).

As indicated in the 2015 Socioeconomic Report, the PNoy administration has achieved significant progress in most of the indicators in the Good Governance KRAs. In a number of indicators—which were more on the input side (e.g., courts with rolled out continuous trial increased, cases filed, etc.) rather than outcomes—the resulting values exceeded the targets.

The PNoy administration claims that these reform initiatives and flagship programs resulted in the achievement of the following:

• Increased citizen engagement through bottom-up budgeting • Higher competitive ranking – from 85 to 47 (World Economic Forum); from 109 to 70 (Heritage Foundation) • Higher ranking in ease of doing business – from 144th in 2010 to 95th in 2015 (World Bank) • Increased credit ratings • Filing of 784 graft and corruption cases (Official Gazette) • Improved ranking in Corruption Perception Index– from 134th in 2010 to 84th in 2014 (Transparency International)

Five indicators in the results matrix of the PDP 2011-2016 for the good governance and anti-corruption cluster pertain to the improvement of the percentile ranking of the Philippines in the World Governance Indicators project of the World Bank. Except for the “government effectiveness,” the Philippines’ percentile ranking for the rest of the five dimensions were at the lower half of the list in 2009. The PNoy administration then targeted to improve the ranking of the country in five of the six dimensions—“voice and accountability,” “government effectiveness,” “control of corruption,” “regulatory quality,” and “rule of law.”

While the administration met its target for only one dimension (“voice and accountability,” which was the lowest target among the five WGI indicators), significant improvement on the percentile rankings in all of the five indicators were achieved (See Table VII.7).
