THE BIRTH OF THE HOME DEVELOPMENT MUTUAL FUND
The birth of the Home Development Mutual Fund (HDMF), more popularly known as the Pag-IBIG Fund, was an answer to the need for a national savings program and an affordable shelter financing for the Filipino worker. The Fund was established on 11 June 1978 by virtue of Presidential Decree No. 1530 primarily to address these two basic yet equally important needs. Under the said law, there were two agencies that administered the Fund. The Social Security System handled the funds of private employees, while the Government Service Insurance System handled the savings of government workers.

Less than a year after on 1 March 1979, Executive Order No. 527 was signed. The order directed transferring the administration of the Fund to the National Home Mortgage Finance Corporation, which was one of the operating agencies of the then Ministry of Human Settlements. Seeing the need to further strengthen the stability and viability of the two funds, Executive Order No. 538 was issued on 4 June 1979, merging the funds for private and

    The history of ‘pork barrel’ started way back on 1922, during the American colonial period. The PDAF in its current form was reintroduced on 1986 during Corazon Aquino’s administration with the creation of the Countryside Development Fund (CDF) in 1990, since Ferdinand Marcos blocked or stopped this pork barrel system during his dictatorship. But on Corazon’s administration the budget for CDF was relieve with ₱2.3 billion in initial funding, it was designed for legislators to fund infrastructure or community projects. The program or system had different names over the years, including the Countryside Development Fund (CDF), Congressional Initiative Fund, and currently the Priority Development Assistance Fund which was renamed in 2000, during the administration of Joseph Estrada. Since 2008, every member in the House of the Representatives receives an annual PDAF of ₱70 million, while on the senate or the senators receives an annual allocation of 200 million & the President also benefits from a PDAF-like allocation, the President's Social Fund (PSF), worth around ₱1 billion. PDAF allocation has gradually increased over the years, before Arroyo stepped down, the last PDAF for the year 2010 at ₱10.86 billion, but when the Benigno Aquino III administration passed its first budget for 2011, the allocation more than doubled to ₱24.62 billion.…

    Good day, I’m Gaspar P. Asco Jr., defending the affirmative side on whether the priority development assistance fund or also known as the pork barrel funds should be abolish. To begin with let me discuss a brief backgrounder of the PDAF or the so called “pork barrel”. What really is PDAF or pork barrel? The term "pork barrel" is used to mean funds allocated to the members of the Philippine House of Representatives and the Philippine Senate to spend as they see fit without going through the normal budgetary process or through the Executive Branch. It can be used for both "hard" projects, such as buildings and roads, and "soft" projects, such as scholarships and medical expenses. Well there are purposes why it was made and I am sure it was made for the right reasons. The priority development assistance fund was designed to allow legislators to fund small-scale infrastructure or community projects which fell outside the scope of the national infrastructure program. PDAF as everybody knows it wasn’t called PDAF till former President Joseph Estrada named it PDAF. It actually went through 2 name changes. First was CDF or Countryside Development Fund and then it was changed to CIF Congressional Initiative Fund and later changed to PDAF. We the affirmative bench believe that it should seriously be abolished. You might ask why? It sounds like its right? But I’m sure you guys listen to the news and know or have an idea about the controversy behind these funds. How this all works and how do the legislators get their hands on this fund and why it is called the virus that keeping corruption alive.…

    And also, defined by a Civil Society group in the Philippines, PDAF Watch, “pork barrel funds are those allocated to politicians such as congresspersons and senators, to be used, based on their decision, to fund programs or projects in their districts”. Based on the research, the pork barrel system in the Philippines was introduced by the Americans in 1922 and retained in the 1935 Constitution under the Commonwealth government. But in the era of Marcos regime, President Ferdinand Marcos abolished the pork barrel and distributed the money instead to his cronies. Pork barrel became famous and implementing effectively in the presidency of Corazon Aquino. In 1989, it was first intended for special project in Visayas and Mindanao. But in the year 1990, the pork barrel of congressmen and senators was converted into lump sums or specified amounts, though as usual, influential lawmakers can increase their shares from the executive branch of the government. The pork barrel was dubbed the Country Development Fund (CDF) with an initial budget of P2.3 billion. After the abuse of the CDF was criticized by some quarters of society, it was renamed in 2000 with the euphemistic title of the current Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF). Under the Arroyo regime, each congressman was granted P70 million and senators P200 million each. ( Tamayo, Adrian.. 2011.
