Charter Change,Pasig City Rep. Roman Romulo,Competition

Pasig City Rep. Roman Romulo argues that introducing competition in targeted economic sectors through Charter change can improve efficiency and reduce corruption in the government.

If there is a logical argument favoring Charter change put forward that so far came up, it is the one during our conversations with Pasig City Rep. Roman Romulo . Speaking at the Kapihan sa Manila Bay news forum last Wednesday, Romulo argued on the need to introduce competition in the targeted economic sectors as the way to improve efficiency and reduce corruption in the government.

“The corruption problem is due to inefficiencies and it is a product of lack of competition,” Romulo cited. By liberalizing equity, ownership should keep these private institutions of higher learning at par with the advancements in science and technology to improve the quality of education, Romulo elaborated. Romulo recalled the first EdCom recommended to split into three agencies the previous Department of Education, Culture and Sports .

Romulo mentioned having authored and sponsored at least three remedial legislations on the K-12 Law to address the gaps and weaknesses experienced by teachers, students and their parents. So when we talk about education, it is not a sexy subject matter, the 57-year-old Congressman quipped in a light vein.
