Metro Manila — Speaker Martin Romualdez has clarified that members of the House of Representatives are rushing to amend the 1987 Constitution because of the need to improve the country’s economy and not due to political reasons.
“Yes, the 301 House members who co-authored the twin resolutions are in a rush to amend these restrictive provisions of the Constitution,” Romualdez said in a statement released Wednesday.Kung nagtatrabaho man kami ng mabilis, ito ay dahil interes ng mamamayan ang nakataya. Hindi pulitika, kundi ekonomiya ng bansa. Hindi eleksyon, kundi misyon na iahon ang mga kababayan natin sa kahirapan.
