【Michelle, CCIM 觀點】
我們政黨輪替後,總是否定前朝的政績;而菲律賓新政府上任後,對於前朝的經濟成果,上至新總統及相關主管單位,都給予肯定和讚揚。

「我們在世界的經濟循環中,正是在“维持適度增長和低通膨”的浪頭上!」發展預算協調委員會的Domingue在參議院財政委員會審核2017年預算的會議之前,如此的告訴參議員們。

事實上,當我走進來被問的第一個問題就是「國庫裡還有錢嗎?」
我說「是的!我們有足夠的資金,因為前兩任主管官員把經濟管理的非常好!」
Dominguez說:「我們現在面臨世界正在走低利率的時代,而我們的利差,經過前任的改革後,也是在有史以來最低的時候。
我們外匯借款的風險很低,因為我們的外債降低到GDP的50%以下,其實,仍在持續降低中。
所以我們正處於一個有利的時機,可以為我們的人民再借款來聰明的運用。」
“We
are in a ‘Goldilocks moment’ in the world economy,” Dominguez told senators
during Wednesday’s resumption of the two-day presentation by the Development
Budget Coordination Center (DBCC) on the 2017 Budget for Real Change before the
Senate Committee on Finance.
“The
past two administrations have left this new administration in very good financial
shape. In fact one of the first questions when I was asked when I came in, ‘Do
you have any money in the treasury?’ I said ‘yes, we have sufficient funds.’
And that’s because the last two administrations managed the economy in an
excellent way.”
Dominguez
said, “We are in a situation where interest rates are low worldwide, and our
interest spreads are also at record low due to our past reforms. We also have
less risk from foreign exchange borrowings. Our debt has dropped to below 50%
of our GDP, and in fact is still falling, so we are in a good position to
borrow and spend wisely for our people.”
