With good governance and anticorruption as the overarching theme of

each and every intervention, the Plan translates into specific goals,
objectives, strategies, programs and projects all the things that we want
to accomplish in the medium term.
With good governance and anti-corruption as overarching theme, the Plan
has three broad strategies. First is a high and sustained economic growth,
which provides productive and decent employment opportunities. The
second strategy is provision of equal access to development opportunities
across geographic areas and across different income and social spectrum,
which will ensure that economic growth and opportunities translate to
poverty reduction. Thirdly, the Plan will push for the implementation of
effective and responsive social safety nets in order to assist those who will
not be able to catch up by the character of a rapid economic growth.

THE PLAN HAS 10 CHAPTERS. Namely..
IN PURSUT OF INCLUSIVE GROWN
It is sustained growth that creates jobs, draws the majority into the
economic and social mainstream, and continuously reduces mass poverty.
This is an ideal which the country has perennially fallen short of, and this
failure has had the most far-reaching consequences, from mass misery and
marginalization, to an overseas exodus of skill and talent, to political
disaffection and alienation, leading finally to threats to the constitution of
the state itself.









MACROECONOMIC POLICY
Productive employment and rising incomes for the vast majority over a long
period can do more to combat poverty decisively than any direct assistance
government can ever provide.

Governments responsibility however through fiscal and monetary policies
is to create an environment for vigorous economic activity, as well as to
ensure that enough gains from growth are set aside for larger social
purposes or channeled into social investments that facilitate future growth.
These objectives are achieved by government decisions regarding the size
and direction of public spending and taxation (fiscal policy) and by
decisions regarding the control of the nations money supply (monetary
policy)

COMPETITIVE INDUSTRY AND SERVICES SECTORS

The focus shall be to enable the industry and services sectors to contribute
to massive job generation, provide opportunities for Filipinos to rise above
poverty, and ultimately offer a meaningful choice for Filipinos to pursue
gainful employment here or abroad

Anchored on investments in human capital and implementation
characterized by a back to basics approach coupled with innovation and
whole of government as underlying principles


COMPETITIVE & SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE & FISHERIES
SECTORS

It is itself a significant market for the products and services of the non
agricultural economy.

Rising productivity and efficiency in the sector are critical in maintaining the
affordability of food and purchasing power, especially among the poor. The
sectors development is therefore vital in achieving inclusive growth and
poverty reduction as well as attaining the targets under the MDGs.
ACCELERATING INFRASTRACTURE DEVELOPMENT

It will support the performance of the countrys economic sectors and
ensure equitable access to infrastructure services, especially as these
affect the peoples health, education, and housing.

Meaning this plan does not only improve infrastructures, buildings, houses,
etc.. but it also aims to protection of people.


TOWARDS A RESILIENT AND INCLUSIVE FINANCIAL SECTOR

The credibility and stability of financial institutions and the relative
attractiveness of various financial instruments to borrowers and lenders
alike determine how much saving will mobilized, how much it stays in the
country to be invested, and how this is to be allocated among the various
firms and industries.

GOOD GOVERNANCE & THE RULE OF LAW

It fosters participation, ensures transparency, demands accountability,
promotes efficiency, and upholds the rule of law in economic, political and
administrative institutions and processes. It is a hallmark of political
maturity but also a requisite for growth and poverty reduction, for there are
irreducible minimum levels of governance needed for large-scale
investment to occur and for social programs to be supported.

This chapter assesses the quality of governance in the country and
identifies key governance challenges that constrain development. It then
lays down corresponding strategies to achieve good governance anchored
on the rule of law, and provide an enabling environment for national
development.



SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT

The country is on track in pursuing the Millennium Development Goals
(MDGs) on poverty, gender and equality, child health, disease control and
sanitation. However, the country lags in achieving universal primary
education, improving maternal health, and combating HIV/AIDS.


Priority strategies include: (a) attaining the MDGs; (b) providing direct
conditional cash transfers (CCT) to the poor; (c) achieving universal
coverage in health and basic education; (d) adopting the community-driven
development (CDD) approach; (e) Converging social protection programs
for priority beneficiaries and target areas; (f) accelerating asset reform; (g)
mainstreaming climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction in
social development; (h) mainstreaming gender and development; (i)
strengthening civil society basis; (j) adopting volunteerism; (k) developing
and enhancing competence of bureaucracy and institutions.
PEACE & SECURITY

The government shall exert all efforts to win peace and ensure national
security.

This shall be anchored on conflict prevention and peace-building , in
conflict-affected areas.

CONSERVATION, PROTECTION & REHABILITATION OF
ENVIRONMENTAL & NATURAL RESOURCES
Demands arising from development and utilization activities, population
expansion, poor environmental protection, and external factors such as
climate change, however, have placed the countrys environment and
natural resources under grave threat.
This vision will be pursued through an integrated and community-based
ecosystems approach to environment and natural resources management,
precautionary approach to environment and natural resources, sound
environmental impact assessment (EIA) and cost-benefit analysis (CBA).
These, then, are all anchored on the principles of shared responsibility,
good governance, participation, social and environmental justice,
intergenerational space and gender equity, with people at the core of
conservation, protection and rehabilitation, and developmental initiatives.

The Bicol Regional Development Plan (2011-2016) It supports the
attainment of the nations Millennium Development Goals and the
Presidents social contract with the people.

The provision of basic services (education, health, nutrition, housing, and
social welfare) shall be prioritized to help the poor and vulnerable groups.
THE BOHOL Provincial Development & Physical Framework Plan
2010-2015
It contains the long-term vision of the province, and identifies development
goals, strategies, objectives/targets and corresponding PPAs which serve
as primary inputs to provincial investment programming and subsequent
budgeting and plan implementation.
TANKULAN BARAGANGAY DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2009-2014)
This will also result into peaceful communities if the people value the
importance of peace as a precondition to development.
