COA said the provincial government has failed “to manage its funds efficiently” that the net cash available at the end of 2019 was not enough to cover current obligations.
“Hence, the current obligations and reserve were not backed up with cash, which could adversely affect the prompt delivery of basic services and implementation of much-needed projects of the PGOM,” CA noted. But COA noted that there were also lapses in the grant and liquidation of cash advances as unliquidated balances from 2001 to 2018 remained outstanding in 2019.
If COA could only investigate all from the very top agencies to the very smallest barangay health center for sure there are corruptions happening. I hope the president will put pressure to COA to do their work more in investigating all agencies for the people.
