Array ( [results] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [ArticleID] => 291933 [Title] => Constitutional reforms from 30 years back [Summary] => Dr. Salvador Araneta possessed foresight. Anticipating as early as 1922 the formation of Commonwealth rule, he studied constitutional law in Harvard and thus came to the Constitutional Convention of 1934-35 with a complete draft. Again in running for the Con-Con of 1971-72, he proposed a Bayanikasan Constitution with 64 revisions to the old one. Among these: a federal system to be set up in 10 to 20 years. He foresaw even back then a need to explain to Filipinos an alternative to the Manila-centric government and a reasonable time to put it in place.

[Summary] => This question has unavoidably become contentious because Congress has delegated to the President the power to raise the VAT rate from 10 percent to 12 percent in January next year under certain specified conditions; and the power delegated appears to be a legislative function that could not be entrusted to another department of government.
