1. Purge the civil service as much as possible to get rid of dead weight and corruption. Fight to amend labor protections that make it difficult to get rid of bad bureaucrats. Raise wages for needed civil servants and use exhaustive scrutiny in hiring new people. Hopefully, the better paid, better selected people will be less susceptible to corruption.
2. Have the new civil and legal system set out on an ambitious program to record and determine property ownership. In many corrupt countries, excessive red tape and contested property ownership make it difficult for people to defend their just claims. As a result, they have to resort to bribery or cronyism to protect what is theirs. By creating a final, simplified record of property ownership, the rule of law instead of the rule of money can be used to settle disputes.
Also, giving people a solid claim to their property gives them a source of collateral for borrowing money to start new ventures. In affect, it creates a vast pool of capital for the common people of the country, helping to close the gap between rich and poor. Solid property rights also provides economic stability. With a smaller gap and more stability, political demogoguery is less attractive.
3. Liberalize the economy as much as possible and open the country to trade. Though the country may suffer economic shocks in the beginning, it is the best path to long term growth and development.
4. Improve the internal infrastructure of the country as much as possible. Make this a priority over defense spending. This will provide jobs for the unemployed and those displaced by economic liberalization, and in the long term will bring the country closer to first-world status.

No, the relationship of the U.S. and the Philippines is basically too intertwined to truly appreciably replace as a results of election of Barack Obama. lots of the officer middle of the Philippine military have been knowledgeable by utilising america. additionally various the determination makers on the component to the Philippine government or on the component to the contest have links with america. One in elementary terms has too look on the form of situations Philippine officers or the contest and their instantaneous family members bypass to america; so as investigate the binds between the two international places. despite the fact that, the Barack Obama presidency won't appreciably impact the Philippines. Mr. Obama is inheriting an financial disaster; he will turn inward for the greater helpful component to his first 3 years as president. u . s . participation in international affairs will shrink and this could propose decreased help to the Philippines. america will pull out from the main hassle spots of the international because it reconsider its function as international policeman. this concern would be worse for the Philippines as a results of fact the army will actual journey decreased help from its U.S. benefactor. The Philippines is battling a 2 front insurgency; the 1st with the communist NPA and the 2nd with the islamic MILF; without non-supply up U.S. help and intensified battling the insurgency will eat efficient components needed for progression. So in terms of the decreased U.S. help which an Obama presidency will actual push; the Philippines would be worse off.

For my home country (The Philippines) I would find a way to get to the Philippines to a new level. Maybe by making some donations to different foundations and help the poor people in the Philippines. Make more beautiful parks and not killing different places and just hear the people's ideas for making a difference.
