RE : LPP EASE OF DOING BUSINESS FORUM

DATE : SEPTEMBER 30, 2019

The League of Provinces of the Philippines and the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung (KAS) will jointly be conducting a one-day event entitled LPP Ease of Doing Business Forum with a theme “R.A. 11032: LEADING THE LGUs TOWARDS EFFICIENT GOVERNMENT SERVICE DELIVERY” on October 17, 2019 8:00am to 5:00pm (Thursday) at Diamond Hotel, Manila. Said event is supported by the consortium members of the LoGIC (Local Government Integrity Circle) Network, a project co-funded by the European Union (EU) in which the League of Provinces is a coimplementor.

On May 28, 2018, President Rodrigo Roa Duterte signed into law, RA 11032: An Act Promoting Ease of Doing Business (EODB) and Efficient Delivery of Government Services This is an act that aims to streamline the current systems and procedures of government services and aims to improve competitiveness and ease of doing business in the Philippines.

The League initiated this forum, to be sponsored by the KAS, to advocate for the fast, effective implementation of RA 11032 in all LGUs nationwide, to be led by the provinces. Let us discuss the gaps, issues and concerns confronting the LGUs so that we can be able to propose the necessary solutions with all stakeholders. This forum will also facilitate the sharing of EODB-related national and local government programs and the best practices implemented by our Governors in their respective Provinces.

In this regard, we would like to invite all Governors and their respective Investment Officer to actively participate in this event.

For inquiries, you may contact MS. EMELYN B. MAGDURULAN at 0917-8166226.

Thank you very much.
