Same here, that bill is the north star. If they will not pass it whole, why not push a pilot on flood control projects with real-time disbursements, change orders, and contractor payments so everyone can see the money flow. Pair it with live donor disclosures during the campaign period to close the loop. What’s the smallest first win you think is doable this year, a pilot ledger at DPWH or donor data in real time?
Between the two, I prefer the second one, though I still have second thoughts as to its reliability.
Same here. If by the second you mean traceable public funds with live budget data, the big worry is who controls the data and whether entries can be changed. Would an independent audit trail with time stamps plus a public read only mirror make it feel reliable, or is there another check you think is missing?
I have no idea. Blockchain is the only technology I know that will make these people accountable.
