1. What are the two models in fighting against corruption, and which one do you think best applies in the Philippines?
Two models:
1. Policy-based-model - it is also consider as the policy making by the congress. An orthodox which is generally or traditionally accepted in the Philippine Setting
2. Instrumentality-based-model or the evolution model - in which the power create the laws and policy like the CPIB in Singapore. It runs particulary of the president of a certain office.

1. Anti-Corruption Legislation with no Independent Agency

2.  Anti-corruption legislation with several agencies

In the Philippines, the anti-graft laws and policies are supplemented by the Sandiganbayan  (special anti-corruption court), the Ombudsman, and the Presidential Commission Against Graft and Corruption (PCAGC)

In relation to the first question, what are the apparent weaknesses of two models? In case of the Philippines, which one, if any, is apparently observed?

1. Anti-Corruption Legislation with no Independent Agency
-possible weakness: Interdependence among agencies may cause these agencies to connive and thus, corruption may become systemic. Unified system may lack checks and balances.

2.  Anti-corruption legislation with several agencies
- possible weakness: Several agencies implement the government processes to conduct checks and balances. This may imply additional expense for the country. Implementation needs to be done effectively.

In the Philippines, we follow the second model. The anti-graft laws and policies are supplemented by the Sandiganbayan  (special anti-corruption court), the Ombudsman, and the Presidential Commission Against Graft and Corruption (PCAGC)

- Increase the Salaries of Government Employees
- Continue the submission of SALN
- Establishment of Anti-corruption offices/divisions which implements its mandate truthfully. These agencies should be incorruptible.
-Political will is crucial

I hope the Philippines can apply some of the Singaporean measures in fighting corruption. One of which can be the Staff Suggestion Scheme (SSS). The employees will then be empowered to present their evidences against corruption practices. It will not just address the issue in corruption,  but they can also suggest better ways to improve current practices.

A single, multi-purpose anticorruption agency makes the process of investigating corruption circuitous. It is best to establish integrity checks within the agency to check corrupt practices immediately.

The Philippines has already established a good system in fighting against corruption. The issue for me is the implementation. Even if we have the best system in fighting against corruption, it is useless if we fail in implementation. We, government employees should be more accountable and honest with each other.

I think the Philippines is already doing some of the practices other countries are doing in the fight against corruption. Many of the anti-corruption programs done by South Korea are also being done here. What the government should do is strengthen it, be firm and be consistent in implementing the existing programs.

For me, we already have a good check and balance mechanism, however, implementation is another issue. We need to have a rigid reinforcement of all the laws we have and the moral courage of every person (government and private sectors) to stand on the side of the law, but not as bystanders when corruption is taking place.
