The People Have the Right to Know
Not knowing what happens to government projects makes people worried.
Roads, bridges, and flood control systems sometimes take a long time to finish. Citizens often do not know what stage the work is in. A new AI portal wants to change that. It lets people track projects online, see updates, and watch procurement livestreams.Budgets and projects are more than plans—they are promises to the people. When money is spent but work is delayed or unclear, people feel left out. The portal shows where money goes and how projects are moving. Satellite pictures, geotagging, and AI tools make it easy for everyone to see progress.
Officials say the portal is part of a bigger digital shift in government. Using technology from the Philippine Space Agency, citizens can see maps, project locations, and updates. This is more than a website. It is a tool to check on public works and reduce mistakes or hidden spending.
Technology can make it easier for people to watch projects. Citizens do not have to wait for reports or news—they can check progress themselves. When people see projects live and updated, trust grows. Delays or problems are easier to spot. This is not about praising leaders. It is about asking them to be responsible.
People have the right to know how their taxes are spent, especially on big projects that affect daily life. Clear updates and honesty help citizens feel included.
Secrets and hidden spending cause doubt. Tools like this AI portal can help Filipinos see where money goes and what work is done. With honesty, clear updates, and real-time tracking, people can finally feel part of decisions that affect their communities.
