It really is time to get the 1987 Constitution changed, and it really shouldn’t matter who filed the bills calling for a Charter change (Cha-cha). Too often, whenever calls for Cha-cha are made, opposition is lodged and the reasons are always the same: Now is not the time to change the Charter. This change is to become the tool for political perpetuation of those in power and position. Congress cannot be trusted to amend or draft a new Charter. It’s too expensive to have a Charter change, and many more. All these same reasons are aired, despite the oppositor’s acknowledgment that the 1987 Charter is very defective as well as their provisos having been prostituted by whoever sits in Malacañang. That the Constitution is much too flawed is undeniable. Where on earth can one find a multi-party system under a presidential form of government?
