Charter Change

Our Philippine congressmen, majority of them, are greedy. They passed a resolution which would trasform Congress into a Constituents Assembly or ConAss which would oversee the so-called charter change or chacha. According to their argument much should be revised in our 1987 Constitution to attune it the changing times.

The people are afraid because of the hidden agenda which would change our presidential form of goverment to parlimentary form. If ConAs succeed then President Gloria Arroyo could run in 2010 national election as congressmwoman or paliamentarian thus if majority of her party won then she would become a prime minister and could perpetuate to power. She could go away from human rights and corruction charges.

Granting that we need changes in our 1987 Constitution, why not implement that next July or August 2010 after the national election? Why hurry that now?

Not all of us 88 million Filipinos are dumb to deduce that there is a selfish motive with this ConAs move.

So, all righteous and enlightened Filipinos here and abroad should register their strongest opposition to this deception that majority members of Congress are plotting to do. Only our concerted effort could stop these power hungry politicians who only think of the money they could get from the movers of ConAs. They do not think at all the poor and the destitute Filipinos.

These congressmen should not be voted anymore into position next election
