Noynoy Aquino may be against divorce, preferring to have legalized separation laws amended to include a remarriage for estranged couples, but even as he is president, he certainly has no right, despite his abhorrence for divorce, to impose his personal view on a nation. If he is against divorce, he should have stated clearly to reporters that this was his personal view, because, as it is often pointed out, as he is president, what he says is seen as policy. If the nation had an independent House of Representatives, perhaps Noynoy could easily air his personal distaste of divorce in the country. Unfortunately, the House, no matter how hard it tries to appear as being “independent” of Malacañang, is largely under the control of the President. And with a lot of members being certified lapdogs, one can be certain that his announced view against divorce will kill whatever divorce measure that has been filed in the House.
