    Read a news earlier that the senate is soon to begin public hearings on Proposed President Duterte's emergency powers to solve traffic - what does the emergency power entail, what does it mean?

    AFAIK, emergency powers enable the government to procure goods and service without undergoing the tedious government procurement process.

    Parang sa disaster. Kung kelangan ng bigas para sa mga tao or gamot para sa mga injured, mabibili agad yun.

    Sabi ni Sec. Villar,- in two years daw, solved na ang problema natin sa trapiko....

    Ito bang statement niya ay naka-patong sa pagbibigay ng emergency power/s sa Presidente?..

    Kakayanin ba talagang ma-solve ang traffic sa MM? Even in developed countries, matindi rin naman ang traffic, hindi rin ma-solve.

    emergency powers = road widening or forcing homes to relocate for the greater good,

    that's what Marcos Did with the Pasig Floodway, so many homes demolished

    as i understand sa emergency powers sa MRT and other projects is the president can kick out existing substandard contracts/contractors which were made to protect them despite their poor performance and replace them without penalty of the law...

    I hope one of his emergency powers is to raise the taxes of the posh villages in Makati at 300% so that they move out and relocate

    It's time to use those lands for the greater good.

    Like what happened in Manhattan, New York, the city is an economic capital. The country cannot afford to give way to a prviledge few, Ang laki ng opportunity ng manhattan tapos may mga villa pa. No way sabi ni Uncle Sam

    Ganun din dapat dito, demolish Dasma, salcedo, forbes, corithians etc .etcc ... By yun na nga raising their taxes to 500%. Pag naging buiding yan dami ma-service-an

    Relocation of bus terminals along Edsa (around 27 of them) & the using/opening of private roads of gated subd. were discussed, to name a few on the Senate hearing.
