                    [Summary] =>

[Summary] => I don’t know what’s up with my good friend, Sen. Mar Roxas, who apparently insists that President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo (GMA) give more attention to the economy first before going into Charter changes. Perhaps the problem we’re facing about Charter changes is linked to politics… that you are perceived to be pro-GMA if you want the Constitution changed or amended. On the contrary, if you want amendments to the Constitution to help this country get a better government… that means you are pro-Philippines and there’s nothing wrong with that.

The bad news is that some of its members believe that the problem can be solved by a more aggressive Public Relations (PR) campaign. They are wrong in this regard. Not even the most expensive and topnotch spinmeister can solve its credibility problem. Not if its members continue their petty wrangling over the pork barrel. First, they could not agree to scrap it completely and would like to retain 60 percent.
