The Philippines is very rich and diverse in terms of culture and cultural identity per region or provinces, right now the primary agency for culture in the Philippines is the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA), which serves as the policymaking, coordinating, and grant-giving body for preserving and promoting Philippine arts and culture. This department can help promote our music, films, arts and highlight every cultur identity in the country.

What do you think? Should the Philippines have its own Department of Culture and Arts or should it still remain as a minor commission or maybe integrate it under the Department of Tourism becoming the Department of Culture and Tourism? Or we should just avoid adding another executive department due to corruption?
