WAYS FORWARD TO SUSTAINABILITY
The following is a checklist of steps that shall be undertaken to ensure sustainability of the campaign subject to the availability of material and human resources:
- The Personal Data provided by respondents / Peace and Development volunteers (KaBayanihans) shall be used as primary data for building a community-based national peace and unity constituency.
- Directly challenge and negate claims of self-proclaimed armed revolutionaries that they are fighting for the rights of the Filipino people.
- Prove that the greater majority of the people reject violent extremism and terrorism as a means to wrest government power.
- Declare YES FOR PEACE, UNITY and DEVELOPMENT ZONES that reject armed struggle whatever the cause may be until armed groups are completely isolated from the People.
- Ensure that armed struggle will never again be an option to advance the interests of the Filipino people.
- Upload compilation of ALL existing basic services as well as livelihood projects – including how these could be accessed – of ALL National Government Agencies (NGAs) in websites of ALL NGAs and LGUs.
- Empower both the people and government workers to pursue the inclusive and participatory identification, planning and implementation for its integrated, holistic and convergent delivery.
- Urge Local Government Units to distribute USBs of ALL existing basic services as well as livelihood projects to their respective Sangguniang Barangays and Sangguniang Kabataan.
- Institutionalize the direct involvement of the people in identifying, planning and implementing basic and livelihood projects.
- Usher in a more rational system of budgeting and allocating government funds for people-centric projects responsive to the needs of the people and not merely the products of “creative” minds of “well-meaning” local government executives and legislators.
- United Nations’ General Assembly the results of the open and verifiably documented assertion of the individual and collective Right to Peace by the Filipino people.
- Give the Filipino people international recognition for another mass undertaking that can be replicated by similarly situated nations.
- Nurture the belief that the Filipino people themselves can truly address their needs and reach their aspirations through Bayanihan ng Bayan – pro-active involvement and collective participation – in Good Governance.
- Leave the next administration no other choice but to follow through and strengthen the mechanisms to do what need to be done to serve the best interests of the Filipino people.
