and integrity in the management of the country's affairs. These are
essential elements in restoring the people's faith in national and local
governance. They are integral to the goal of raising the country's GDP
sustainable growth rate above the 7% threshold and significantly impacting
the poverty incidence.
World class Master Planner and Architect Felino "Jun" Palafox, Jr., a GFN
Convenor, has the exemplary distinction of reporting an attempted extortion
by a BIR Examiner. The BIR Commissioner sought the assistance of the NBI in
the investigation. Architect Palafox and government prosecutors collaborated
in having the extortionist sentenced to 7 years in prison.
Additionally, Architect Palafox reported to the SBMA Administrator an 18%
extortion attempt and the planned destruction of trees.
Legal and death threats, black propaganda and Congressional allies of
corrupt circles constantly hound Truthteller, Whistleblower and Taxpayer
Palafox. Some bureaucratic officials want him in prison for exposing
environmental corruption.
In 2007 and 2008, former President Cory encouraged whistleblowers to expose
the corrupt.
GFN fully supports and endorses the governance cleansing crusade waged by
Architect Palafox.
Collectively and individually acting in a resolute manner, Filipinos can
succeed in bringing about governance cleansing.
Only then can the Philippines take its rightful place in the community of
progressive nations.
