Reinsert ‘imminent danger’ in Charter, Robin asks
The recent incident involving the use of a water cannon and dangerous maneuvers by China against Philippine vessels in Ayungin Shoal warrants an amendment to the Constitution, Senator Robin Padilla said Monday. During his manifestation following Senate President Juan Miguel Zubiri’s privilege speech on China’s recent actions in the West Philippine Sea, Padilla pushed anew for amendments to the 1987 Constitution. “If we are reaching the point where the whole Senate is really frustrated about the actions of China, I want to remind you all that we also have a responsibility in these four walls of the Senate,” he said in Filipino. “We have a provision in our Constitution that we need to amend and that is about the declaration of martial law,” he said. He said the deletion of the phrase “imminent danger” in the 1987 Constitution, which had been an important factor in the declaration of martial law on 21 September 1972, must be corrected. “When are we going to act? That is my question. Do we have to wait for an invasion?” he asked. “Are we going to wait for them to land in Palawan before we amend the Constitution and insert back the phrase ‘imminent danger?’” he added. He continued: “The imposition of martial law does not mean we will have a flashback of what happened in 1972. It is not like that. Martial law is a thing utilized to organize the Filipino people correctly.” ROTC Padilla stressed the importance of the legislation of the proposed mandatory Reserve Officers Training Corps program for higher education institutions and technical-vocational students. “It is undeniable that China has military reservists. Maybe they will just walk on us or pee on us — we will get drowned already,” he said. “What I am saying to my beloved colleagues in the Senate is let us level our anger at China with an action like the mandatory (ROTC),” he added. He continued: “I am hoping that at least with the ROTC, let us prepare our fellow Filipinos. The same goes with the imminent danger.” The post Reinsert ‘imminent danger’ in Charter, Robin asks appeared first on Daily Tribune......»»
Leave Agriculture, solon asks Marcos anew
Minority leader Marcelino Libanan renewed his call for President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to leave the Department of Agriculture, which he concurrently heads, as he aims to help the country attain food security and sufficiency and address the deepening woes in the farming industry. In his counter SoNA delivered yesterday before House members, Libanan, who heads the Minority Bloc, said Marcos should appoint a full-time DA chief and focus on the business on the executive as it needs “undivided attention.” “The President’s mind needs to be freed from the nitty-gritty of a department-level affair,” the 4Ps solon contended during his speech. He continued by saying, “The whole bureaucracy — nay, the whole country — needs his undivided attention at the helm of the ship of the state. The Chief Executive should leave the agriculture portfolio to someone in his bosom confidence. The lawmaker further questioned why Marcos could not place a permanent DA chief just like he did in the Department of National Defense, now headed by Secretary Gilberto Teodoro, after months of being shepherded by caretakers. “Why can’t this administration find the same intelligence, the same gravitas for the full-time stewardship of the Agriculture department?” he asked. Libanan first aired a similar question during a probe into the sugar fiasco (Sugar Order 4) in the House of Representatives last year, which the Malacañang refused to comment. Libanan pointed out that while food security is a pressing concern, it is, however, subsumed in the far larger concern of national security. “The former can be delegated to a subaltern, but the grander national security should be handled by no less than the Chief Executive himself,” Libanan continued. Marcos maintaining his position in the Agriculture portfolio drew mixed reactions from several lawmakers, with others agreeing he should stay in the post. Last June, Mr. Marcos announced that he would remain in the position as the Agriculture chief in light of the deepening woes hounding the industry of agriculture. He also expressed confidence that he can push reforms in the sector since he is in a position where stakeholders “cannot say no” to him as the President.
