00:00with job creators and economic shapers, bringing in more dynamism to our economy
00:08as we diversify our industry mix and create a balance between producers and importers.
00:18Our goal is to maximize the potential of our human and natural resources,
00:25leveraging the power of technology and digital transformation to create growth centers
00:32that host competitive homegrown producers, service providers, and exporters.
00:42These strategies will be significant economic drivers that will help create local jobs,
00:49increased domestic activities, and spurred development and progress in domestic and micro economies across the Philippines.
01:01Beyond physical development, digital transformation will be our strategic tool for better governance and nation building.
01:12It is our tool to facilitate innovation and enhance our capabilities in delivering public services
01:20and responding to disaster, crisis, and emergencies.
01:26More importantly, it is our weapon against corruption.
01:31As we digitize, we automate our processes, make data and all government transactions seamless, borderless, and transparent.
01:45And we leave no room for scrupulous backdoor transactions.
01:51We take away the power of corrupt leaders to manipulate public funds
01:59and capitalize on people's money for their personal interests, greed, and political ambition.
02:11The welfare of the people is our highest priority.
02:18Technology will be our powerful tool to impose checks and balances, monitor paper trails,
02:28eliminate arbitrary and politically motivated decision-making,
02:35and prevent unconstitutional budget insertions to curry political favor at the expense of the people's money.
02:48If technology is a blessing to modern society,
02:52then let us use it to protect the people's rights and welfare.
02:59The right to have better governance.
03:04The right to have better opportunities in our homeland.
03:08And the strong political will to put our leaders in check
03:14when they have unforgivably gone beyond the authority that the people have vested in them.
03:24Let us use technology and digital transformation as weapons
03:28to close to close the door where corruption when strived unchecked and unpunished.
03:39Our readiness for change brought by digital transformation
03:43will test our capability and agility in embracing technological innovation.
03:51By investing in our people and developing our capacities today,
03:56we can strategically take advantage of future opportunities
04:02and create a stronger, more resilience, and more competitive nation.
04:12Nakakapagod na po ang maging kulig
04:15dito sa ating region at sa buong mundo.
04:19Nakakapagod na po angkul.
