NPM and public education in the Philippines

ONE OF the deliverables (due on Feb 24 at the latest) in the ongoing online seminar on New Public Management I am part of is a three-page essay on the public administration in one's country, its main problems and the kind of reforms needed.

After some 150 posts I went through on interesting reform examples from all over the world volunteered by an international group of participants, and the recent Synergeia retreat I attended over the weekend, I already decided what I will write about: it is the title of this post.:)

I don't know if it's serendipity, but it's as if I was fated to write about it.
