Sinabi ni Speaker Feliciano Belmonte, Jr. na dapat suportahan at siguruhin ng Kongreso ang pagkakaloob ng tamang pondo sa bawat programa sa 10-point economic agenda ng administrasyong Duterte, sa 2017 national budget upang ito’y magtagumpay.
Inilarawan ni Belmonte ang programa sa ekonomiya ni incoming President Rodrigo Duterte na “bold and daring”.
“The Duterte economic plan laid out at the Davao Business Summit clearly pivots the budget towards the agriculture sector where the majority of the poorest Filipinos are.
By adopting the regional growth center approach the Duterte Administration further ensures that the poorest provinces will be first in line.

It is an empowering vision for our people, bold in taking on the harder path of building prosperity with the poor, and daring in pushing greater equality in our society,” ayon sa Speaker. (Bert de Guzman)
