An Open letter to Vic Agustin of the Inqiurer & C.Pedrosa of the Philippine Star

Being a congressman is easy. you just buy votes, hire goons and terrrorize your constituencies. Thats how most Congressmen are elected.

[tolstoi]

Countries where there is parliamentary form of government:

Thailand - coup de etat
Fiji - coup de etat
Lebanon - wars
Congo - civil war
Ivory Coast - violence
Myanmar - no democracy
Cambodia - no progress
Laos - still no progress
Nepal - civil war
Bangladesh - poor

Countries with Presidential system
USA - progressive, superpower
South Korea - progressive, Developed country
Taiwan - developed country

ingon ang mga gusto ug parliamentary, mag parliamentary ta para ok na ta! Unsa man nang parliamentary magic nga masulbad ang atong problema ora mismo?

Who are you kidding?

the countries that you are giving comparison with seems like they are on the opposite sides of the totem pole..lagpas ra kaayu kung i compare ang botante sa Pinas ug sa Congo, Bangladesh...gibugoan na gyud ka sa mga pinoy? if you still don't know yet we have a literacy rate of 96% (2003 est.)..hasta c dagget giminusan sa literacy nato dire...do your research first mga amigo usa mo maka minus...tsk tsk

why don't we give Parliamentary a chance..it's about time to change the ineffective system

or ang uban gusto lang gyud nga COMMUNISM ang mo puli na government under the guise of defending democracy kuno

bong and lito is in the pockets of gma. i forgot the other 2 pro gma.

masbetter cguro 2 party list system para walay samok. samok ra kaayo ang other party list ron.

[tolstoi]

You mentioned Senators don't represent the people at a district level.......

That is why its HARD to become a senator.... you need to campaign in all districts........

I won't mind if there is just one senator for each region....

as long as there are 2 houses.... 2 heads are better than one.... one can't fool around without the other's cooperation....

is it really that hard dagget?..MADRIGAL won because of JUDY ANN, LAPID and REVILLA are well known actors, LOI won because of her showbiz husband..unsay nka lisud ana?

PARA ASA LAGI NA ANG PORK BARREL FUND SA MGA SENADOR NGA WALA MAN SILA DISTRICT NGA I DEVELOP?

[dagget]

when I mean hard...


unlike congressmen you only campaign in your district...

if the district has 1,000 voters.... you need to visit only 501 voters..


Whereas a senator has to campaign from APARRI to JOLO....

So that is a logistical nightmare...

GETs the POINTS....

To the least, I seem to agree with you. Maayo bitaw cguro nga kung duha man gani duha nalang para mawala nang mga partylist diha sa mga militante nga samokan kaayo.

[dagget]

Again don't give me that idea on: Why not give a Parliamentary system a chance

Look at Thailand... its a country that has so many similarities with the philippines... so don't deny that fact....

ang ka maayo lang sa thailand naay king that is respected and revered... and who has moral integrity....



Parehas rana ingnan ka tilawi ning shabu kay libre ra.... tilaw pud ka....

Ha-ha-ha... tan-awa si mosimos o. Di pa gyud isulti ang tinuod nga sa Asia halos kita nalang ug ang South Korea ang nagsubay sa presidential form sa mga Amercano. Unsa man diay nang Malaysia nga asensado? Unsa man diay ang England nga asensado? Unsa man diay ang France nga asensado? Nganong di man nimo hisgotan ning mga nasura? Nganong kana man gyung nga nasud nga ug maingon ta, utrong talabangon. Are you afraid nga mahibal-an ang tinuod kinsa ang mga nasud nga nag parliamentary form of government nga karon pwerting mga dato-a...

[lestat1116]

Bai mosimos, di gani nimo angayan nga i-apil ang Taiwan kay bisag duna silay presidente nga pareho nato, their's is a unicameral form of legistalure so in effect parliamentary. Here is the link to satisfy you....
