loco de laca besa
i am starting to pity this country.
yesterday, after my class in auditing, i was invited by my former campus org to grace their symposium on the country's current political situation. i was not about to go since i had a prior appointment at glorietta, but the speakers' name rang my bell. cong. tañada and cong. casiño..
teddy casiño.. at least i would get to ask him the question i have been wanting to ask him or anyone from his group... when i got to the venue, lo and behold, i was right, he will tackle about the Transitional Revolutionary Government TRG. he has gotten so unpredictable that i can sense his political agenda meters from where i was sitting.
blah blah blah's about the TRG... TRG is an ideal setting where the people really get to start to initiate true reforms in this country. however, one question rings thru and bursts the bubble of its promises:
where will the council get its legitimacy?
the groups who are pushing for TRG claim that they are nationalistic and that they just stand up to protect the people, the country and the constitution. however, it ironic that the setup that they are proposing is extra-constitutional in nature.
i was so disappointed. casiño never answered my question. for the nth time, he has gone behind to bushes to evade the question for the reality is quite undeniable, TRG has no legitimacy to anchor itself on to. he has evaded the question just like what Ka Belt and Ka Satur did in one of the forums that i attended. he evaded the question, just like what naj pangudapun did...
sigh...
it is hard to hide something that is very evident. TRG is a euphemism for a complete communist government. hay.....
i almost puked when the emcee regarded the speakers as the future leaders of the country.. well such claim is acceptable for tañada since he and i have both advocated for fare trade in the Fair Trade Alliance.. but for casiño? nah.... id rather not elaborate for i can be sacked with libel thru the e-commerce act...
puke.....

Where will it get its legitimacy? From the people. If the majority of the people shall support the transitional gov’t then it becomes legitimate since the present administration has lost its legitimacy to rule.

ok, so if gma is removed from office, which I hope would happen, and the TRG has been put in place, will there be a plebiscite by the people to ratify the transitional revolutionary government?
EDSA revolution does not represent the majority. legally, there is no provision that states a ratification thru a revolution or something to that effect. the only option here is a plebiscite. will there be any? I have not heard such thing since they proposed such set up.
