OFFICIALS of the country’s 42,046 barangays will undergo capacity-building training under the incoming administration of President-elect Ferdinand ‘Bongbong’ Marcos Jr., to ensure optimal utilization of the additional funds to be injected by the Mandanas-Garcia ruling.

Atty. Vic D. Rodriguez, incoming Executive Secretary, pointed out that barangay governance would further improve with the additional funds that the implementation of the ruling would provide.

“When I was still a barangay kagawad, seryoso na kami noon, our budget was only four-million…And those were the difficult times that I think now, wala nang problema doon sa mga barangays na nagta-tap ng ilaw sa poste ng mga Meralco dahil hindi mabayaran ang kanilang monthly kuryente,” Rodriguez said.

He was recalling his experience when he started in public service as a young village councilor during which he admitted that funds for basic services were hard to come by.

“And I think ngayon sobra-sobra na ang inyong pondo, sobra-sobra na pati ‘yung pagdi- deliver ng basic services. And it is indeed true – nag-evolve na rin ang mga barangays…Napakaganda ng evolution ng barangay governance…Magkakaroon pa kayo ng dagdag na pondo dahil sa Mandanas-Garcia ruling,” he said.

The executive secretary-designate noted that the barangay officials in Quezon City have already been undergoing such series of training, but not all barangays have the financial capacity.

Hence, he assured, that incoming Interior and Local Government Secretary Benhur Abalos Jr. and incoming Undersecretary Felicito ‘Chito’ Valmocina, who also boasts of a lengthy experience as village leader, would ensure that all barangay officials nationwide will undergo capacity-building training.

“I know you’ve been doing a lot of capability-building seminars but, not all barangays are fortunate like you here in Quezon City… but ‘yung mga hindi pa, with the incoming DILG Secretary Abalos, you’ll be in very good hands,” he pointed out.

“With Usec. Chito, magkakaroon kayo ng training, capacity-building on how to better use those funds that will be coming your respective barangays and respective jurisdictions,” he continued.

At present, LGU’s IRA comes from 40% of national internal revenue taxes collected by the BIR.

With the Mandanas-Garcia ruling implementation this year, it is projected that LGUs will have a 27.61% increase in the total IRA shares.

During the campaign, Marcos assured barangay officials that they would have a champion should he win, adding he would bat for the implementation of the provisions of the Local Government Code that provide for benefits for barangay officials that have not been fulfilled due to lack of sufficient funds.
