PHILIPPINES for RESPONSIVE GOVERNANCE-THIRDFORCE Many groups have arisen in the Philippines clamoring for changes in governance. Good Governance, Moral Governance and now, RESPONSIVE Governance. We all have one thing in common -- a change of philosophy in governing from corrupting, corruptible and corrupt to one that is populist, considering the real needs of the people to alleviate poverty, raising their consciousness as well as delivering them from the many ills in society.

LET GIVING HURT
When a government public institution is named after a living person,
regardless of whether he/she has questionable backgrounds should not be
allowed at all. Only the public has the authority to label an
institution and not a group of officials in an institution. At most, the
officials may conduct a survey of opinions and possibly hold a
plebiscite on what name should be given an institution. Otherwise, any
individual with funds could donate and expect his or her name to be put
up, or even his or her picture appear in perpetuity at the office,
which could be a form of punishment to those who would not appreciate
seeing that picture at all. I think that charity or gift-giving should
be as unobtrusive as possible; the least the giver is known the better.
That is a real Christian act of giving, not expecting anything in
return.Neither should anyone expect positive karma to come about after giving.
