Did GMA set out her strategy for change ? we didnt hear that she had, in fact she has done what most national leaders do when things are not going to plan...you simple have a cabinet re-shuffle, move people around, and change the faces in the frames, her appointment of 26 new members of cabinet are a testimony to that theory.
What FilipinoUK Forum thinks is this : Madam President, you need to look at your basic institutuions in the Philippines before you can effect change, the PNP for example needs re-organizing and the right people need to be employed to do it, professional managers need to be employed in area' such as Human Resource Management, get the right people in place and things start to happen.
Bureacracy in the Philippines is an absolute nightmare, with its mountains of forms and paperwork, reduce the red tape and throw out the bureacracy and you get a slim line style of government, what the people of the Philippines want I we suspect is less government not more government, go back to Reaganomics and give people the tools they need to make their lives better, Government should be about creating the right market conditions to enable people to help themselves, Government should be restricted to Foreign policy and market reform, social spending on worthy projects is fine, but if the wrong people are skimming off the public funds set up with tax payers money to effect the changes, such as building that road bridge in Carmen del sur, then it aint gonna happen !!, GMA needs to look at total reformation of basic Phiiippine Institutions.
