EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 356 - AMENDING
EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 203, “CREATING THE OVERSIGHT AND EXECUTIVE
COMMITTEES FOR THE NATIONAL GOVERNMENT’S MAJOR SOCIAL REFORM AGENDA,”
AND PROVIDING FOR THE ADOPTION OF THE GUIDELINES ON THE INSTITUTIONAL
ARRANGEMENT TO FAST-TRACK SRA LOCALIZATION
WHEREAS, it has been a declared
policy of the State to declare an all-out war against poverty as a
major component of the Philippines 2000 and as embodied in the
Philippine Medium Term Development Plan towards a common vision of an
improved quality of life for every Filipino;
WHEREAS, the Social Reform Agenda is the operationalization of the
people empowerment track of Philippines 2000 and has been expanded to
become the Integrated National Action Agenda on Anti-Poverty as adopted
during the National Anti-Poverty Summit held last 19-20 March 1996;
WHEREAS, the attainment of the common vision of winning the war against
poverty entails an energized bureaucracy and a participative civil
society that adhere to continuous consensus-building processes to
effectively fast-track the localization of the SRA in order to achieve
the two-pronged objectives of reaching the national target of reducing
poverty incidence by 30% in 1998 and ensuring that all relevant
policies, programs, projects and resources reach the targeted sectors
and communities at the grassroots level;
WHEREAS, the geographic target of the SRA implementation has been
expanded from the 20 priority provinces to all regions, provinces,
cities and municipalities nationwide which requires a strengthening of
existing networks and organizations and broader participation from all
stakeholders particularly the local government units and the basic
sectors;
WHEREAS, the war against poverty should be broken down into manageable
battles that define the areas of engagement and specific roles and
accountabilities of major stakeholders at the national and sub-national
levels;
NOW, THEREFORE, I, FIDEL V. RAMOS, President of the Republic of the
Philippines, by virtue of powers vested upon me by law, do hereby order
the adoption of the guidelines on the institutional arrangements to
fast-track the localization of the SRA as the Integrated National
Action Agenda on Anti-Poverty;
