"content": "Just like what the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs has said, this Bill is timely and needed in the private sector. Directors of State corporations need to share ideas across the board. They also need to be trained on ethical grounds. We have seen directors being suspended after being taken to court. At times, some of these people find themselves in problems because of lack of leadership skills or know how on what to do. Technocrats approach them and they are only told to append their signatures. They end up going to court without knowing what they signed for. The directors require training, so that they can acquire some leadership skills within a year. They will be taught how to manage people in their line of leadership and how to evade corruption or avoid some leadership challenges that they face, so that they can run the companies well. That is another way of curbing corruption and instilling ethical values in our State corporations. In that sense, it is not about micromanaging or coming up with Bills or laws that have already been passed or are in place in other channels. This is an avenue to put people to ethical grounds, have leadership skills and acquaint them to the tech-savvy kind of society that we are facing."
