imho, it would only somehow distribute corruption in the government via the governor, et. al, if the local governments are corrupt. imagine, they have their own budgets, their own laws, police, etc.

it will work if the local government heads are really good and are there for service.

i don't know which one will work for us. i think the better one for us is a parliamentary where we can remove the prime minister without fuzz if he/she is not performing well. the only thing i can see in a parliamentary form is kung ally ng prime minister ang lahat or majority the parliament.
