Cleaning the shorelines, drainage systems, streets, rivers and parks within Kasambagan is everyone’s responsibility. It is not just the responsibility of city officials. The citizens and officials of the barangay are responsible. Stop blaming others.
As far as budget expenditures, it starts at the barangay level. Then it moves on to cities, municipalities, provinces and regions. The barangays need to exercise their authority. They need to put their yearly budget together for their administration and future projects.
