Capital expenditures, particularly those classified as capital goods or durable goods to be used for non-military and productive purposes, such as construction of roads and bridges, dams, power and irrigation works, schools and hospitals, are generally desirable because of their high multiplier effect on the economy, i.e., they stimulate the growth and expansion of economic activities of the private sector and facilitate the integration of industries.

Despite the government's avowed objective and determination to "conserve and develop the patrimony of the nation" the natural resources of the country are still basically untapped, such that the majority of the people remain poor. The reforestation program of the government is beset with problems posed by the "kaingin" system and indiscriminate logging, and the gap between reforestation and deforestation seems to be widening. The Economic Research Journal of the University of the East editorialized in one of its issues thus: "The conservation of our natural resources is a critical issue of development and survival. On it depends the present and future growth of the national economy. Thus, the challenge to our people and to the national leadership is to adopt policies and measures that will ensure the conservation of our natural resources for the present and future generation.

Since 1962, the Philippine government has undertaken a deep- sea fisheries program to expand production to the level of the country's consumption requirements and possibly for export. The project also emphasizes technical assistance, marketing, refrigeration, canning, artificial spawning, and doing away with dynamite fishing. FISHERIES

Under the current system of budgeting, only interest payments are treated as part of the expenditure program because it represents as a real expense item, the cost of borrowed funds, which should form part and parcel it of cost of the items financed by the loan. Debt principal is treated as an off-budget item because it is merely a return of borrowed funds; hence it is reflected as a financial account.
1 2 Debt Service consists of the repayment of interest and related costs. The payment of principal amortization is no longer included in the budget, but it is included in the cash outflow. The reason for this is that principal payment is a financing transaction rather than an expenditure.
