PH Budget puts a ₱7.2 trillion national proposal under a microscope
An interactive explorer breaks down the Philippines’ proposed FY2027 national budget across 39 departments, regions, historical comparisons, and individual line items.
Field notes
The explorer separates agency budgets from automatic appropriations and special-purpose funds, preventing the latter from disappearing into a single departmental ranking. It provides department-level views, historical comparisons from FY2020 onward, and CSV or JSON access alongside rendered charts and tables. The page says its figures are read live from the bettergov.ph budget API and identifies FY2027 as an executive proposal rather than enacted law. Its largest-department example is DepEd at ₱975.96 billion.
