July 2nd, 2010 10:45 AM #12I would like to know first what are the salient points or the focus of the proposed charter change before making hasty comments.
IMO, we really need to amendment some parts of to the constitution.

July 2nd, 2010 03:30 PM #14eto kasi yan, kasi ang dami dito sa'tin napaka-ignorante on what's going on talaga.
the clamor for charter change has only 1 objective, make our govt. parliamentary.
in Marcos time, he succeeded in making it both. may PM na tayo, may Presidente pa.
ngaun age ng internet at talakayan sa forum, hindi na pepede pang-iisa ni Marcos.
now i believe there are two forces trying to influence the Phils: one is for parliamentary and one is for us to stay the same. HK and Singapore are both parliamentary and both are progressive countries in the ASEAN region, and so by logic, since we are in the ASEAN, baka mas maging effective nga sa'tin ang parliamentary.
regarding the US stand, i think there are two opposing forces within the US talaga. siguro baka the US Senate wants us to stay the same, pero ang US executive branch wants us to become parliamentary. and that's why noon panahon ni Ninoy, it was the US Senate who helped him topple Marcos. kasi nga naman parang abomination eh, Parliamentary + Presidential System ang pinatakbo ni Marcos. tinalo pa nya US hehe. in fact may bonus pa, pa kasi si Imelda viewed herself as Queen, so para tayo England, may monarchy.
now last elections, kahit botante ako i went to the US and traveled. kasi i don't believe in the democratic electoral process anymore. i don't believe in giving power to people to vote with their limited knowledge and education and more importantly, i just hate seeing people who are exempted from taxes shout it out like they are the most intellectual when in it comes to govt. affairs.
gusto ko talaga parliamentary.

July 2nd, 2010 04:19 PM #15Prime Minister who?
Kung sa democratic republic system nga eh marami nang nagawa si GMA and her allies for personal/family gains, how much more in a parliament system where she has more and "infinite hold" in power as prime?
Parliamentary best worked in HK and Singapore kasi "less" ang corruption dun and consistently and effectively enforced and laws nila.
They didn't always need to effect much necessary change from the already proven and stable state Britain has left them to begin with.
The Philippines is much far from that.
Although I'm not saying democratic republic set-up really works. Take a look around and I might have to agree with parliamentary. But it all ends up to who will be holding prime power and how able is he/she to have one.

Eto lang alagaan ni Noynoy, yung relationship nya sa Congress. Kung at least 33%+1 kaalyado nya ayos yan GMA can do nothing to push her agenda since PNoy can always veto any bills he deems crap!

Speaking of GMA the kapal muks continues... Dumaan sila sa NLEX kanina and yes naghariharian uli sa kalye by passing through a closed booth and not pay any toll fees... Hay buti na lang talaga she is just a congresswoman na lang so her power is not that great anymore!
