Sen. Zubiri: 'di dapat madaliin ang RBH6 na mag-aamyenda sa 1987 Constitution

10 months ago

Gumugulong na pero hindi raw mamadaliin ng Senado ang "Resolution of Both Houses 6" na mag-aamyenda sa 1987 Constitution. Iginiit ding probisyon tungkol sa ekonomiya lang ang pag-uusapan at hindi pagpapalawig ng termino ng kahit sinong pulitiko.

Giit ng isang dating chief justice na kasama sa mga bumalangkas sa konstitusyon, "lethal experiment" ang anumang pag-amyenda sa panahong ito.

00:00 Good evening, Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.

00:04 The Senate is already in a hurry, but it won't be easy for the resolution of both Houses 6 to amend the 1987 Constitution.

00:13 The provision was also made to talk only about the economy and not to extend the term of any politician.

00:22 A former Chief Justice, along with those who have run for the Constitution, Gate, is here to discuss the lethal experiment.

00:31 We have here with us, Ma'am Gonzales.

00:33 The Senate is already in a hurry to discuss the resolution of both Houses 6 or RBH 6, which is a far-reaching amendment of some economic provisions of the 1987 Constitution.

00:46 But it won't be easy because there is no timeline to follow.

00:51 We will not be falling into a trap on any deadline. It cannot be rushed like any regular bill that is just approved without thinking.

01:04 Senator Sonny Angara assured that the discussion will be only about economic provisions,

01:10 particularly foreign participation in public services, advertising, and education.

01:14 There are no term limits for the politicians to discuss in RBH 6.

01:18 Let's not think that this is a miracle that if we pass it, it will come suddenly and knock on our doors, the leaders and businessmen.

01:28 Because as our colleagues said, there are many factors.

01:32 Along with those who are facing the Senate's hearing, some are rushing or framers of the 1987 Constitution.

01:39 Former Supreme Court Justice Adolfo Azcuna is demanding to remove economic restrictions in the legal system.

01:45 It should not be in the Constitution. It should be in an ordinary legislation.

01:50 Economic provisions should be flexible to meet changing times in the economy.

01:57 The constitutional framer, Atty. Christian Monsod, is also not in favor of the Charter Change.

02:02 He said that it was not mentioned as a way to reach the former target of the administration.

02:08 There is absolutely no mention, as already mentioned earlier, of any Charter Change in the Philippine Development Plan 2023-2028.

02:19 Former Chief Justice Hilario Davide Jr. has a plan if he will now amend the Constitution.

02:27 Amendments to or revision of the Constitution at this time would be a lethal experiment, a fatal leap, a plunge to death, a leap to hell.

02:42 It would be a cha-cha dance to the grave or to hell.

02:46 A provision that the writing of the Constitution is not clear is if the Senate and the House of Representatives will vote separately on the amendments to the Constitution.

02:56 But legal luminaries said, including former Justice Vicente Mendoza, the Constitution is a bicameral Congress, so it should be separated.

03:06 When it comes to the time for voting, they vote separately for the obvious reason that the members of the Senate are smaller than the members of the House.

03:22 Senator Robin Padilla also wants to clarify that the resolution of both Houses No. 7 was adopted to put in the Constitution the vote of the two houses on the amendment of the Constitution.

03:35 For GMA Integrated News, Mav Gonzales, for Tutok, 24 hours.

03:40 .
