We have to take note that a plan that changes annually is not a good plan. There must be some consistency so that measures and policies that are originally envisioned to have long-term benefits will be effective,\u201d Petilla said.<br \/>\nThe three pillars of the Aquino Administration\u2019s Energy Reform Agenda continue to contribute to the Plan\u2019s objectives, but to enhance public participation, Petilla highlighted that transparency is needed to enable decisions and implementation to be done according to established rules and regulations. This will also ensure that adequate and reliable information are directly accessible to those who will be affected by such decisions.<br \/>\n\u201cTransparency is a key factor to the success of any market driven industry such as energy. The energy industry is a complex industry but there is a way to laymanize things. By making it more basic and understandable for the public, we will be able to provide transparency which is greatly needed in this sector since energy is one of the most important basic necessities,\u201d Petilla said.<br \/>\nLike the rest of the world, the Philippines is facing a moment of decision in terms of using energy in a more environment-friendly way. Thus the plan identifies the energy pathways towards a low carbon economy and identifies the most efficient energy options.<br \/>\nThe launch was held at the Grand Ballroom of Hotel Intercontinental-Makati on 19 December 2012 with 370 attendees from the international community, Congress, local government units, private sector, and the academe. \u25cfCharlene A.
