Enterprise Development Planning & Budgeting: an Applied Process and Report- Writing Guide (For Barangays, Municipalities, Cities, Provinces) Reynaldo B. Almenario

On its second edition, this book is meant to help the Philippine local government units (i.e. barangays, municipalities, cities and provinces) formulate their economic/enterprise development plans as serious guideposts to achieving self-reliance or autonomy: the ultimate objective ordained by the Local Government Code of 1991. Intended for use principally by local economic planners and development managers, including college instructors of courses associated with socio-economic development, the book is so written to serve as a handy guide to the formulation and the writing of an economic/enterprise development plan solidly grounded, among others, on the human and natural resource base of the locality. Briefly, said plan provides answers to the following questions: What local enterprises to promote and develop? Why should these be promoted and developed? Where should these be set up? When should these be set up? What support services, programs and facilities should be in place to raise the chances of these enterprises to survive, stabilize and grow? How much would it cost to set these up and provide the support mechanisms? Finally, where would the necessary funds come from?
