My dissertation, with the Australian National University explains the persistence of particularistic spending in the post-Marcos period, from 1986 to 2016.   While I have the data on CDF/PDAF releases from 1989 until 1998 and from 2009 to 2013, the requested years are not available in the old DBM link.   Will appreciate your response.
