Hi! I am looking for the longest series available for Budget of Expenditures and Sources of Financing (http://www.dbm.gov.ph/index.php/budget-documents/previous-years). The DBM website has a rundown of previous years until 2001 (however some of the links are broken). Is it possible to ask for the longest years available, preferably 1940s until present?
Thank you.

Hi Zhandra,
This pertains to your request for the lomgest series possible for the BESF possibly dating back in the 1940s.
First, may we be clarified as to what specific table/s you need since the BESF Tables is a consolidated document (with 1,565 pages) containing various tables.
Second, may we know for what purpose/ study will you be using the data so we can help you determine if there are other information we can provide you?
For information.

Ma'am,
The project is related to a new macroeconomic model for policy simulation especially on the government side (reference: https://pidswebs.pids.gov.ph/CDN/PUBLICATIONS/pidsdps1743.pdf). I'm especially interested in Chapter 15: Public Administration. I already asked the PSA Library and they said that all these PSY are available there, also in soft copy but I just need to request in eFOI in order to have access.
Thank you.

Regarding other references that may be of assistance to us, I'm particularly interested in the Table 15.2 (National Government Revenues) and Table 15.9 (Government Expenditure Program by Sector) that can possible have the longest time series available (until 1940s).
