HOUSE BILL 6183 OF REP. GONZALES ENVISIONS A FLAT TIRE UNDER HOT WATER BED WHERE CORRUPTIONS MAY RESIDE
I admire the courageous filing of House Bill 6183 by Rep. Jun Gonzales to ensure the election of a majority president and a vice president. But the crack of the ice entails another gateway for a far-reaching graft and corruption streamway that would drive the whole country into a more chaotic shambles.
I’d like to suggest that there should be more chronicles of studies where such move should be founded. It is not only the question of whether a president was a minority or majority, but a clear-cut assurance on how to carry out such a tremendous setback if it comes true.
If according to the election result, Erap garnered only 40%, and Ate Glo with 39%, and now they become a minority president; such hypothetical presumption would only reveal another clog in the tube. We should also consider that our political system is a multi-party system in which the stream of variables would loosely be netted into one catch and eventually insure election.
But let us assume that it would be more assurable that the one who seats in Malacañang is a majority president, would it be an assuring sign that graft and corruption will certainly be eradicated from the system? Would government officials live up to the expectations of the people that the public office is a public trust? And if in the event that this political system of election will be integrated into the cultural pathways of Filipino traditions, would it ensure safety of governance?
I believe that no matter what results to the presidential elections, what counts most is the honesty; sincerity; integrity and courage of the candidates to accept the highest responsibility of making this nation go forward and survive the many storms and typhoons of political squabbles among its own political system.
Whoever is elected must do what he can to make every Filipino citizen get insured of its daily sustenance; and encourage others to do the same.
The multi-party system of governance gives the political playing field many rooms for safety and security; but, it does provide a lot of opportunities of hidden corruptions and secret combinations. The moneyed people will be the ones who can dominate the little few.
If we pass this Bill, Rep. Jun Gonzales, needs to untangle the insurmountable clog of a multi-party and pursue a two-party system where we can surely make a more than 50% votes for a president and a vice president. If multi-party system would still exist as we pursue to approve House Bill 6183; another clog of events will surely pass and opportunities of progress and development may defer for a time.
But it’s nice to have it tackled in congress; there are a lot of legal luminaries and legislative wizards who could make it. My only wish is that legislations should have been done in pursuit of lasting order in the government.
