Transcripts
now let's talk about the role of the
government
so you have the legislative branch which
is authorized to make laws alter and
repeal them through Power vessels in the
Philippine Congress divided into two
which is the Senate and the House of
Representatives
and we know that the executive branch
will be carrying out the law which will
be composed of the president and the
vice president who are elected by direct
popular vote and serve a term for six
years
and the Constitution will be granting
the president authority to appoint their
cabinet the Departments form a large
portion of the country's Beulah
bureaucracy now we have our judicial
branch which will be evaluating the laws
it holds the power of to settle
controversies involving rights that are
legally demandable and enforceable and
will be determining whether or not there
has been a grave abuse of discretion
amounting to lack or excess of
jurisdiction on the part and
instrumentality of the government
and it is made up of the Supreme Court
and lower courts
and just take note that good governance
is about how our public institutions
will be conducting public affairs and
manage public resources
everyone when you pay your taxes you
have a big contribution
public resources
they should be accountable for it if
you're working for a company for example
you have to be when you purchase
something
for the company private company that
you'll be working for most of the time
if you want to get a reimbursement there
should be a trans there should be a
receipt right and that's the same thing
in the government if they are going to
be using our public resources it should
be transparent that we get to find where
did they spend those taxes that we paid
and contributed so that we can help get
the necessary services that the
government should be making or providing
to the public
and that's why the government's main
role is to promote and ensure the
welfare of the people and to govern the
Nations towards healthy and safe social
economic system for the country and for
the country to be fulfilling its best
and achieving progress
so we are divided into three branches
which is the executive legislative and
judicial which will have what we call
the check and balance concept that means
each of this should be working
independently so that we will have what
we call check and balance
I'm hoping that you will be evaluating
at all
voters
they take into consideration
balance
different branches will be just forcing
on helping each other out in terms of
making some corrupt decisions
we have to be doing some research
checking out I know since and deserving
to be placed in the position in the
legislative executive and the judicial
branch
without any bias because these branches
will be checking for check and balance
in terms of making sure that each
branches will be able to fulfill their
duties correct and responsibly
and as you can see here at the bottom we
have legislative which will be making
the loss like the Congress usually um
Congress and then
basically the Congress is divided into
two sectional
we have the House of Representative and
in the Senate and once the law gets to
be passed from those two branches of the
Congress it will then be proceeded and
submitted to the president from where
the president will have an option to
either vettle or approve
or let's say approve or disapprove the
law that has been passed by the senate
or the Congress
and we have the judicial which will be
involving the Supreme Court and the
other courts
from the regional courts that we have
that will be
making sure that uh the fundamental loss
of the land will be fulfilled and
executed correctly by the people in the
judicial branch of the government
