[Title] => Palace: Cha-cha drive at a ‘high point’ due to public support
[Summary] =>
Malacañang said yesterday the administration’s Charter change campaign has reached "a high point" with the public’s growing support for the proposed amendments to the 1987 Constitution.
The Palace has also urged the country’s political leaders and concerned sectors not to stifle the clamor for constitutional reforms.
Executive Secretary Eduardo Ermita said the Palace-backed information drive on Charter change will continue, even as the fate of the people’s initiative campaign now rests in the hands of the Supreme Court.

[Title] => ‘Cha-cha needed to hike investments’
[Summary] => Business leaders yesterday said constitutional reforms to fix the country’s defective political and economic structures are crucial to turning the Philippines into one of Asia’s magnets for overseas investments.
Francis Chua, who heads the Federation of Filipino-Chinese Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FFCCCI), said the gridlock-prone bicameral presidential setup has grievously hampered the passage of urgent reform measures, which should help attract foreign capital.

[Title] => Two-chamber Congress a waste of money — ULAP
[Summary] => Mayors and governors yesterday reiterated their call for a shift in the form of government from a bicameral presidential system to a unicameral parliamentary system so the Philippines will not be left behind by its neighbors.
Officials of the Union of Local Authorities of the Philippines (ULAP) said yesterday that the country’s American-style bicameral system has led to the duplication of functions, waste of public funds and failure to produce legislation that would propel economic development following the declaration of Philippine independence in 1946.
