10-POINT SOCIOECONOMIC AGENDA OF THE DUTERTE ADMINISTRATION
1. Continue and maintain current macroeconomic policies, including fiscal, monetary, and
trade policies.
2. Institute progressive tax reform and more effective tax collection, indexing taxes to
inflation.
A tax reform package will be submitted to Congress by September 2016.
3. Increase competitiveness and the ease of doing business. This effort will draw upon
successful models used to attract business to local cities
(e.g., Davao) and pursue the relaxation of the Constitutional restrictions on foreign
ownership, except as regards land ownership,
in order to attract foreign direct investment.
4. Accelerate annual infrastructure spending to account for 5% of GDP, with Public-Private
Partnerships playing a key role.
5. Promote rural and value chain development toward increasing agricultural and rural
enterprise productivity and rural tourism.
6. Ensure security of land tenure to encourage investments, and address bottlenecks in land
management and titling agencies.
7. Invest in human capital development, including health and education systems, and match
skills and training to meet the demand
of businesses and the private sector.
8. Promote science, technology, and the creative arts to enhance innovation and creative
capacity towards
self-sustaining, inclusive development.
9. Improve social protection programs, including the government’s Conditional Cash Transfer
program, to protect the poor
against instability and economic shocks.
10. Strengthen implementation of the Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health Law
to enable especially poor couples
to make informed choices on financial and family planning.
