    My platform would be:

    On Taxation:

    Reduce the personal income tax rate to a maximum of 20% for those who are earning purely compensation income.

    Those who are self-employed (running their own business), or practicing professionals (doctors, dentists, lawyers, athletes, celebrities, etc.) should be subject to a maximum tax rate of 25%.

    Make expenses on education a deductible expense on taxable income.

    Abolish the VAT on consumption of basic utilities like water and electricity.

    Reduce the VAT on fuel to 8%.

    Make paying taxes easy via internet banking for all individuals

    On Political Rights and Government

    Via Constitutional Amendment:

    Reduce term limits of ALL ELECTIVE OFFICIALS (Congressmen, Governors, Vice-Governors, Mayors, Vice-Mayors, members of provincial, city and municipal councils) to TWO TERMS ONLY. With perpetual disqualification from any other elective or appointive posts. Such disqualification to extend to members of the immediate family of the public official.

    Abolish the SENATE. Nuff said.

    Reduce voting rights only for those who pay taxes.

    Via enactment of law or statute:

    Reduce the number of cabinet members by merging related department functions (i.e. DA with DAR and DENR, DOST and DOE, DepEd with CHED, etc.)

    Abolish the MMDA and create the province of Metro Manila under an elected governor with supervisory powers over all cities comprising it.

    Make punishable via imprisonment the interference of ANY CHURCH, SECT OR DENOMINATION in politics or governance.

    On Law Enforcement:

    Dissolve the PNP and create a fully-civilian law-enforcement police force not comprised of PMA graduates or those who served with the AFP. Only graduates of the PNPA may be given the post of police chief.

    Dissolve the PLEB and create a genuine police Internal Affairs Service to kick-out corrupt and abusive police men.

    Make mandatory the installation of CCTVs in all public thoroughfares with the monitoring and budget under the LGUs.

    On Traffic Management and Public Transportation:

    Revoke ALL PUB franchises and create a public transportation authority so all buses will now be operated by government. That way, the number of buses and routes can be reduced and rationalized.

    All buses should be fitted with a speed limiter and CCTV.

    Invest in rehabbing or completely redoing the MRT --- with the corresponding increase in fares to reflect the actual cost of maintaining and operating the system.

    Revive the PNR train routes by purchasing new trains and rehabbing tracks. Also, create new train routes going to major transport hubs.

    Require increased comprehensive insurance coverage by PUVs.

    Impound and destroy all PUBs, PUVs over fifteen (15) years old for destruction.

    Unify and supersede all local traffic codes or laws. Additionally, make violations of traffic laws by PUV drivers PUNISHABLE BY CANING a la Singapore.

    Whew, haba. Meron pa pero mamaya na. Hehe!

    Set the bar higher for government workers:

    Something along the lines of immediate and more severe penalties for government workers/officials caught involved in illegal transactions or (even just) unethically questionable activities, no matter how minor.

    Dirty dealings must not be considered resolved when the person simply resigned or meted with the usual 'disqualification from holding public office/forfeiture of retirement benefits'.

    Oh, and establish a form of Service Level Agreement for all government services. Penalties also abound for breaking the SLA.

    No hospital arrest sounds good. Bilibid is their destination upon court hearing. Death penalty is to be considered since this country is so corrupt. No road construction during rainy season. lol

    I'd nuke this country back to the stone age and start all over again.

    Clean slate.

    But that's just me.
