Description:
Led by the Anti-Red Tape Authority (ARTA), this year’s celebration carries the theme: “Achieving Results through Transparency and Accountability: Towards a More Productive Bagong Pilipinas.” The initiative aims to streamline government processes, reduce bureaucratic barriers, and enhance service delivery across public institutions for the benefit of the Filipino people.
The Poro Point Freeport Zone used to house the former Wallace Air Station. The enactment of Republic Act 7227 (Bases Conversion and Development Act) on March 19, 1992 and Proclamation No. 216 on July 27, 1993 effectively transferred the stewardship of the Freeport to the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) to facilitate its conversion into a productive economic growth center.
