Amid calls to take action against corruption in the country, the Makati Business Club stressed anew the need to strengthen laws, such as the law governing the Statement of Assets, Liabilities, and Net Worth and reforms in the Bank Secrecy law, among others.
“We stand with Mayor Magalong and others in declaring that we want a Philippines where public officials focus on public service rather than private enrichment, and where citizens and businesses compete on a level playing field rather than bribe to get ahead or even just get along,” MBC said in a statement dated August 11.
However, MBC Executive Director Francisco Alcuaz Jr. said in a televised interview last month that he would have wanted the president to talk about Bank Secrecy Law, FOI law and the law governing the SALN. MBC emphasized that corruption takes resources away from public services like health, education, maintaining peace and order, and providing needed safe and resilient infrastructure that allow citizens and job creating businesses to flourish.
