It's time to verify

When it comes to social media, we are constantly bombarded with news and information. But not all of it is true! To verify the accuracy of news on social media, there are a few things you can do.

Is it credible?

Firstly, when evaluating an article, it's essential to check the credibility of the source. Reliable sources typically have a track record of accuracy and integrity, so it's wise to verify the reputation of the publication or author. If there are doubts about the source's reliability, it's advisable to cross-check the information with other reputable sources to ensure its accuracy and credibility.

Look for supporting evidence

Secondly, look for supporting evidence or quotes within the article that corroborate its claims. Reliable articles often include references to studies, expert opinions, or official statements that lend credibility to the information presented. By examining the supporting evidence, readers can better assess the validity of the article's claims and make informed judgments about its accuracy.

Your analytical skills

Thirdly, analyze the writing style of the article. Sensational phrases, extreme viewpoints, or overly biased language may indicate that the article is more focused on eliciting an emotional response than presenting factual information. It's essential to approach such articles with caution and critically evaluate the content to separate fact from opinion or speculation.

Verify its acuracy

Lastly, before sharing an article on social media or other platforms, take the time to conduct additional research to verify its accuracy. By independently verifying the information through reputable sources or fact-checking websites, you can help prevent the spread of misinformation and promote authentic and genuine news stories to your audience. Taking these steps can contribute to a more informed and discerning online community.

Yes to charter change: Parliamentary System

Article 6 & 7 - Form of Government

 

REFORM the current lousy PRESIDENTIAL Structure to the superior PARLIAMENTARY System
WHY PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM?

• MUCH LESSER CORRUPTION - Top 10 for the LEAST CORRUPT in the Global Corruption index all operate under PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM;
• SAVINGS of 400 to 500 BILLION PESOS ANNUALLY potentially due to REDUCTION in CORRUPTION;
• CHEAPER elections: for the candidates and the electorate, less elections being bought by oligarchs;
• YEARLY SAVINGS of 30 BILLION PESOS potentially due to cheaper and less elections;
• COST of RUNNING a GOVERNMENT is very much(maybe 50%) lower in PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM since the EXECUTIVE and LEGISLATIVE branches are fused;
• VOTE on IDEAS not personalities: LESS DYNASTIES;
• COMPETITION based on POLICIES : LESS POPULARITY contests / electorate forced to think and prioritize when voting;
• FASTER ELECTIONS: leads to cheaper elections which again reduces the risk of elections being bought by monopoly seekers / rent seekers/ oligarchs;
• MINORITY IDEAS get a turn in the spotlight : in a presidential system, mostly ideas backed by the political elite or pushed for by deep pockets get discussed;
• No more "OUST (INSERT NAME HERE)" shenanigans: if the leader you don't like has truly lost favor with the electorate, a simple NO CONFIDENCE VOTE can oust that person;
• LESS EXTREMISM: In parliamentary systems, oftentimes no one single party gets to rule outright. This pushes them to form coalitions. This usually ensures that extremist parties don't dominate;
• INTRAPARTY DISCIPLINE: there are competing egos in every party and this ensures the ones who lead parties truly know their stuff and have internal fortitude;
• EASE OF DOING BUSINESS will greatly improve especially if handled by REGIONAL PARLIAMENTS;
• TERM LIMITS and POLITICAL DYNASTIES will be IRRELEVANT;
• PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM ang sagot natin sa KORUPSYON, POLITICAL DYNASTIES, BALIMBINGAN, WEAK POLITICAL PARTIES, MAHAL NA ELEKSYON, VOTE BUYING, POLITICAL GRANDSTANDING at PERSONALITY BASED POLITICS;
• PHILIPPINES should shift to PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM using these countries as references (GERMANY, SWITZERLAND, UK, SINGAPORE, JAPAN, AUSTRALIA, CANADA, MALAYSIA) NOW na!

#YEStoConstitutionalConvention
#YEStoConstituentAssembly

SHIFTING to FEDERAL PARLIAMENTARY POLITICAL SYSTEM (now unitary presidential)
and ADAPTING a MORE OPEN MARKET ECONOMY by REMOVING all ECONOMIC PROVISIONS in the Constitution (now top 3 most restrictive economy in the world)
are the KEY INITIAL STEPS in UNTANGLING the BUREAUCRATIC MESS from the top to bottom, left and right, that has burdened our COUNTRY for a very long time now.

KALAMPAGIN natin ang mga SENADOR at sabihan natin na aprubahan at trabahoin na ang CHARTER CHANGE na panukala ni SENATOR ROBIN PADILLA at ng mga PDP Laban Senators.
We also support and wholeheartedly thank the HOUSE of REPRESENTATIVES for giving priority to Charter Change especially to Representatives Martin Romualdez, Rufus Rodriguez, Richard Gomez and Stella Quimbo.

Matatamasa lang natin ang TUNAY na PAGBABAGO tungo sa pagwasak sa KAHIRAPAN at KORUPSYON kung mababago na natin ang ating SISTEMANG POLITIKAL at EKONOMIYA.
CHARTER CHANGE NOW!

Yes to charter change: evolving federalism

EVOLVING FEDERALISM

ARTICLE 10: Structure of TERRITORIAL Administration - National and Local Government

REFORM to or adapt EVOLVING FEDERALISM or REGION BASED DECENTRALIZATION from the current CENTRALIZED and UNITARY STRUCTURE.

For FEDERALISM to work in the Philippines, we need it to be EVOLVING and we need to first REMOVE ALL ECONOMIC PROVISIONS in the CONSTITUTION and setup a PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM of government at all levels.

WHY EVOLVING FEDERALISM?
Evolving federalism refers to the decentralization of power and decision-making from the central government to regional or local authorities.
Read more: https://correctphilippines.org/evolving_federalism/

DECONGESTION of MAJOR URBAN CENTERS:
Decentralization can lead to the development of new urban centers and the growth of smaller towns and cities, reducing the burden on major urban centers. This can help to ease congestion, reduce pollution, and improve the quality of life in these areas.

REGIONAL RESPONSIBILITY: Decentralization can also empower regional or local authorities to take greater responsibility for their own development, including infrastructure, education, health, and social services. This can help to ensure that resources are distributed more equitably across different regions, reducing disparities and promoting social cohesion.

REGIONAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT: Decentralization can also lead to the development of regional economies, with local authorities able to tailor policies and programs to the specific needs of their regions. This can promote entrepreneurship, innovation, and competitiveness, driving economic growth and job creation.

REGIONAL CULTURE and LANGUAGE ENRICHMENT: Decentralization can also help to preserve and promote regional cultures and languages, which may be threatened by globalization and centralization. By empowering regional authorities to take greater responsibility for cultural and linguistic policies, decentralization can help to ensure that diverse cultural and linguistic traditions are valued and celebrated.

Setting up "Evolving Federalism" means that right upon RATIFICATION of such a change, the Philippines will, at that point, STILL BE UNITARY.

Yup, we will still be unitary ON DAY ONE after ratification.

All that will happen is that the configuration parameters of the structure of territorial administration will be altered so that our territorial administration will mimic the situation of Spain right after their adoption of the 1978 Constitution, which is:

1. adjacent provinces are to group themselves together based on similar language/ethnicity/culture.
2. the concept of "independent cities" will be removed so that rich and highly urbanized cities will essentially be contributing to their province and region in general.
3. the regions (formed by the joining of similar provinces) will be given the ability to form their own governing bodies based on the parliamentary system.

Peculiar to the Philippines, this will also be adopted:

• All regions who are economically self-sufficient can become Federated Regions, and will help contribute funds to the Federal Government, part of which will also help the less-developed regions.
• All regions who are NOT YET economically self-sufficient will automatically become Federal Territories, essentially under Federal Government supervision and assistance.
• The National Capital Region will NOT become an autonomous community but will instead be directly under the Federal Government. It will be called the Federal Capital Territory of Metropolitan Manila. This "territory" will be the key "funding source" of the National Government.

Yes to charter change: annual returns ng pagbabago

Nasa 800 BILLION to 1 TRILLION PESOS ang potential ANNUAL RETURNS ng Constitutional Reforms or CHARTER CHANGE.

Ang sinasabi na maaring gastos for having a CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION is around 11-15B PESOS one time cost or expense.

Maraming NAGREREKLAMO na MALAKI raw ito na GASTOS... Pero hindi nila sinasabi kung ano ang benefit if magConstitutional Reforms tayo.

THE BENEFIT OUTWEIGHS the COST by 789 BILLION PESOS or MORE.
The REALITY is that CHARTER CHANGE or CONSTITUTIONAL REFORMS is not an EXPENSE but an INVESTMENT, a VERY GOOD INVESTMENT with a VERY HIGH POTENTIAL RETURNS.

Tingnan na lang natin sa dalawang aspeto. Ito ang sa FDIs or FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENTS at sa COST of CORRUPTION.

1. FDIs or FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENTS
https://www.macrotrends.net/.../foreign-direct-investment....
Ang ANNUAL AVERAGE ng PILIPINAS is around US$8Billion of FDIs entering the country.
If we REMOVE ALL ECONOMIC PROVISIONS in the CONSTITUTION, the FDIs is projected to maybe double or triple.
That is around US$8Billion more on FDIs or PHP448Billion entering the Philippine Economy in the form of JOBS and capital INVESTMENTS and business expenditures benefiting the common workforce, the MSMEs, and the local businesses as a whole.
Add to that the intangible benefit of TECHNOLOGY and SKILLS TRANSFER to the labor force.

2. SAVINGS on CORRUPTION Costs
https://news.abs-cbn.com/.../p700-billion-lost-yearly-due...
The Philippines is losing around P700 billion, or around 20 percent of the country's total budget appropriation, yearly, due to corruption, an official said.
If we SHIFT to FEDERAL PARLIAMENTARY, and if we can hopefully reduce CORRUPTION by 50%, that is a SAVINGS of PHP350Billion every year.

3. Kahit pa we will use a VERY CONSERVATIVE ESTIMATE.

For FDIs (increase of just 10%)
448B pesos * .1 = 44.8Billion Pesos

For Corruption(down by 10%)
700B pesos * .1 = 70Billion Pesos

For a total of 115Billion Pesos.

Dito sa dalawang aspeto, kitang kita na natin na ang laki ng BENEFITS if we do CONSTITUTIONAL REFORMS as soon as possible.

Maliit na maliit lang ang ating INVESTMENT of 11B at kahit na DOBLEHEN pa to 22B pesos
as compared to Potential RETURN of 800 Billion or 115Billion Pesos conservatively.

Wala pa diyan ang other benefits like

1. Improved standards of living for the people.
2. Improved quality of goods and services
3. Improved efficiency and effectiveness of the government system

It really just makes GOOD BUSINESS SENSE to do CONSTITUTIONAL REFORMS or CHARTER CHANGE.

This just proves the POINT that COST should never be an ISSUE for doing Constitutional Reforms because the benefit is just too high to ignore. It would just be IDIOTIC to ignore this REALITY.

With this crude and basic analysis, pwede pa natin pagsabayin ang Constitutional Convention(CON-CON) at ang Constituent Assembly(CON-ASS) to ensure that we will have COMPLETE and FAST DELIVERY of the NEEDED CONSTITUTIONAL REFORMS.

Yes to charter change: open market or economic liberation

OPEN MARKET ECONOMY or ECONOMIC LIBERALIZATION?

ARTICLES 12, 14, & 16 - National Economy and Patrimony , Education, Mass Media
DELETE/REMOVE ALL THE ECONOMIC PROVISIONS AND RESTRICTIONS in the CONSTITUTION.

Ito ang mga articles of the 1987 Constitution ang PINAKADAHILAN na SANHI ng KAHIRAPAN sa
PILIPINAS,

1. kung bakit MATAMLAY ang pasok ng FOREIGN INVESTORS sa bansa..
2. KAWALAN ng TRABAHO, MABABANG SWELDO
3. MABABANG quality ng serbisyo sa INTERNET,
4. MAHAL at putol2x na supply sa KURYENTE,
5. WALANG AYOS na PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION
6. PAGHIHIKAHOS ng mga MAGSASAKA
7. Kung BAKIT MARAMING OFWs at NURSES na nag-aabroad

Kung bakit nagsisiksikan ang mga tao sa NCR Manila at nakatiwangwang at napagiiwanan na ang mga probinsya sa LUZON, VISAYAS and MINDANAO.

ISA sa mga SOLUTION para DUMAMI ang mga multinational investors and DADAMI ang TRABAHO sa bansa ay ito:
DELETE/REMOVE ALL THESE ARTICLES OF ECONOMIC PROVISIONS AND RESTRICTIONS in the CONSTITUTION.

Put them in NORMAL LEGISLATION by the PARLIAMENT preferably the REGIONAL PARLIAMENTS.

Tanggalin na lahat ng mga probisyon sa 1987 CONSTITUTION na syang balakid sa pagunlad ng ating ekonomiya katulad ng 60/40 ownership provisions sa Article 12.

And SHIFT TO FEDERAL PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM and COUNCIL MANAGER SYSTEM at the LOCAL LEVEL.

Ito rin ang isa sa solusyon sa problema natin sa AGRICULTURA, sa HEALTHCARE, EDUKASYON, ENERGY, sa pagiging MAHIRAP na BANSA at sa LAGANAP na KORUPSYON.

Ito rin ay solusyon sa problema ng squatters at matinding trapik at OVERPOPULATION sa NCR Manila.

IKALAT po natin itong post na ito sa FB page ng ating mga SENADOR at mga CONGRESSMEN at ng masuportahan nila ang REPORMA sa Konstitution na isinusulong ni Senator ROBIN PADILLA .

We support Senator ROBIN PADILLA and REPRESENTATIVE RUFUS RODRIGUEZ and their committee on CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS.

We support our OFW Champion, Mr ORION PEREZ DUMDUM of the CoRRECT Movement , Professor Tony Abad, NSA Professor CLARITA CARLOS, and Atty Demosthenes Donato and Professor Malou Tiquia.

Kailangan natin ang dalawang moda na CON-CON and CON-ASS for SHORT and LONG TERM CONSTITUTIONAL REFORMS.

Copy and paste lang sa lahat ng comments sections para mamulat ang mga tao sa katotohanan kung ano talaga ang solusyon sa problema sa KAHIRAPAN, KORUPSYON at KAWALAN ng TRABAHO.
PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM:

Competition among political parties and blocs ensures that the public ends up with better parties, higher quality politicians, competent leaders, and the direct competition between Opposition Shadow Cabinet versus Government Cabinet means greater scrutiny of decision-making & budget concerns, thus drastically reducing/minimizing corruption and influence peddling.

EVOLVING FEDERALISM:
Competition among regions ensures that regions try to outdo each other in attracting investors, coming up with better policies, streamlining their bureaucracies, improving their infrastructure, etc.

ECONOMIC LIBERALIZATION:
Competition among corporations and companies creates more jobs, increases wages for employees, and creates better goods and services for consumers/clients/customers.

Big failures of EDSA revolution

The EDSA People Power Revolution of 1986 was a peaceful mass demonstration in the Philippines that resulted in the downfall of President Ferdinand Marcos and the rise of Corazon Aquino as President. However, the revolution failed to bring about significant changes in the country's political and economic systems.

One reason for the failure of the EDSA People Power Revolution was the lack of a clear plan for post-revolutionary governance. The Aquino administration had difficulty maintaining unity among the diverse groups that had participated in the revolution, and there was a lack of consensus on what the new government should do.

Another reason for the failure of the EDSA People Power Revolution was the lack of political will to implement real change. Many members of the Aquino administration were former Marcos supporters, and they were not committed to fundamentally changing the systems of corruption and patronage that had been in place under Marcos.

Additionally, the failure of the EDSA People Power Revolution was a result of the lack of effective leadership. The Aquino administration was plagued by infighting, political maneuvering, and a lack of decisive action, which hindered its ability to effectively govern the country.

Overall, the EDSA People Power Revolution of 1986 was a momentous event in Philippine history, but it ultimately failed to bring about the lasting change that many Filipinos had hoped for.

Recruiter officially
