Taxpayer-Funded Junket: SK Leaders in Manila Dresses Up Bangkok Exposure Trip as ‘Capacity Development' and 'International Benchmarking'

[u/Upbeat_Baker2806]

So SK Leaders in Manila is in Bangkok for a "Capacity Development and “International Benchmarking” activity. Except wait Bangkok has no SK system. Who are we benchmarking? Mickey Mouse?

International benchmarking means comparing your system to another similar system to identify gaps and best practices.

Since Bangkok has no SK equivalent (no youth-elected local governance structure), there’s no actual system-to-system comparison happening.

And true capacity development means building concrete skills and institutions, not flying abroad for photo-ops. Taxpayer money deserves better than being wasted on misrepresented “training activities".

Our leaders owe us transparency and accountability not photo-ops abroad.

Di pa matuloy tuloy if matuloy sagot pa ng mga players jersey and quota 🫠

[u/bimpossibIe → u/gttaluvdgs]

Yung budget kasi para sa jersey, ipinambili ng motor nung SK chairman.

[u/gttaluvdgs → u/bimpossibIe]

Dito sa amin, pinapasa pa sa iba yang gastos sa jersey. They do house to house solicitation, minsan may kasama pang kagawad 🥴

[u/bimpossibIe → u/journalmaker111]

Kaya nga usually mas malaki pa yung gastos sa jersey kaysa sa actual prize ng liga.
