Secretary Eduardo Ermita
When the majority of the citizenry do not trust The President, as evidenced by the negative public trust rating of Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, when the president previously lied to the Filipino people when she said that she will no longer run in the 2004 Presidential Elections, when the president never answered truthfully allegations against her, how could the Filipino people ascertain the sincerity of this statement? Federalism is has long been debated but how could Charter Change start under the term of a president who never tells the truth. In less than two years, another presidential elections will occur. Fast-tracking charter change in the Congress will just make monkey out of our democratic process. Change the president first before opening constitutional change debates.
