It has been decades since the Philippines is under democracy.And guess what? kita kaayo nato ang mga corruption in the greater scale, like the infamous PDAF or Pork Barrel Scam. Unsa may inyong opinion. Is it time that the Philippines would change the form of governemtn in to Federalism? Like, each provinces would be a Federal State like that of the US.

Share your thoughts.

I somewhat agree with your opinion. yes it is inevitable that we can't stop the corruption happening in our midst. But at least, we can lessen this so-called "scope of corruption". In the sense that "corruption" only happens to a specific federal state. At least it won't affect the greater good for the greatest people. haha.

OT: Sayop ni. Dapat "It has been decades since the Philippines is under Unitary Government"

Yes agree ko aning Federalism. Dili man necessary ma wala ang corruption pero ma lessen.

Ang usa nga gusto gyud nako sa Federalism ka'y naa sa majority tax state kay keep ra sa state. Unlike karon nga ang atoang tanan tax ka'y naa sa Manila. Yes kanang nindot nga infrastructure sa Manila ka'y atoa nang kwarta sa Provinces.

mas ganahan ko ani kay isa ni ka way ma improve ang other provinces in the country and it can lessen corruption gyud

There's no Perfect Form of Government, its HOW you implement it.

As long as walay ngipon atong Constitution to go after the corrupt, walay hinungdan ang pag change sa form of government. Unaha usa ang FOI ug anti-dynasty before ta mo venture ana.

Sila'y na.bulahan sa atoang mga gipang.hatag. What's disadvantage about Federalism though is that provinces which are economically unstable would have a hard-time to cope-up. But anyway, it's worth a shot. haha

Unsa man gyud dapat ang unahon, ang pag change/amend/revise sa Constitution or ang FOI ug anti-dynasty laws?
