The budget for the education and public works sectors recently stirred discussion among lawmakers due to claims that the bicameral conference committee’s version of the proposed budget supposedly gave more funds to the DPWH than the education sector.

Under Article XIV, Section 5 of the Constitution, the government must “assign the highest budgetary priority to education and ensure that teaching will attract and retain its rightful share of the best available talents through adequate remuneration and other means of job satisfaction and fulfillment.”

Below is the list of the eight remaining sectors with the highest budget allocation for 2025:

Defense – P315.1 billion Interior and local government – P279.1 billion Health – P267.8 billion Agriculture – P237.4 billion Social welfare – P217.5 billion Transportation – P123.7 billion Judiciary – P64 billion Labor and employment – P39.5 billion Justice – P42.2 billion Your subscription could not be saved.
