Totoo bang na-EDSA-pwera ang taumbayan dahil sa 1987 Constitution?
Hindi nga ba patas ang Saligang Batas?
Let’s examine the claims in the ad calling for Charter change.
CLAIM: Sa 1987 Constitution, natigil ang asenso natin. (Visuals: Global investors not allowed)
CLAIM: Malusog na ekonomiya daw para sa lahat! Pero pangako nahinto. Monopolya ang naghari. Land ownership ng foreign investors, Edsa-pwera.
FACT: The 1987 Constitution does not prohibit entry of global investors into PH. What it regulates is foreign investment in areas deemed critical such as public utilities; exploration, devt and use of natural resources; and certain investments as determined by Congress. (Art XII)
JUST IN: The Supreme Court has changed the interpretation on the rule on Statements of Assets, Liabilities and Net Worth:
Before any public official/employee could be liable for errors, omissions or non-filing of SALNs, they must be given the chance to correct them.
The Supreme Court made the "clarification" on the SALN rule in setting aside the dismissal for dishonesty of a tax specialist from the Dept of Finance who was accused of concealing millions worth of real properties, motor vehicles, business interests and loans.
Jessie Javier Carlos, whose gross annual salary at the DOF only ranged from P126k to P210k between 2000 and 2011, allegedly secured 2 house and lots worth P4.1M, farm lots worth P4M, vehicles, loans and credit card debts--all beyond his govt earnings, not in his SALNs.
Bakit dalawang beses nang pinagpapaliwanag ng Korte Suprema si Public Attorney's Office (PAO) chief Persida Acosta kung bakit hindi siya dapat i-disiplina ng Korte?
Ano'ng meron? Simplehan natin.
Naglabas ang Korte Suprema ng Code of Professional Responsibility and Accountability na gabay sa tamang asal ng mga abogado.
Kabilang sa mga probisyon nito ay kung paano maiiwasan ng isang abogado ang magkasalungat na interes (conflict of interest).
Ombudsman said police were conducting legitimate anti-illegal drug operation which, unfortunately, resulted in deaths. It added, cops were in fulfillment of a duty, a justifying circumstance where there is no criminal liability.
In contrast, the QC court, in dismissing the direct assault case vs Morillo back in March, said the police operatives could not be presumed to be in the performance of their duties due to irregularities in their operations when they failed to coordinate with agencies, barangay.
