GOING into the second half of his term, President Benigno Aquino III might want to take note of what Cebu Archbishop Jose Palma thinks he should do.

The president of the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) said Aquino’s job is far from being done as several matters continue to be wanting of his attention and solution.

“On their own end, may sinasabi sila na mga magandang nagagawa pero yung sa CBCP naman, may mga komentaryo na hindi naman ganyan lang dapat ang pagtingin,” said Palma.

Topping the prelate’s list is the review of the reproductive health (RH) law, which the Catholic Church has strongly opposed.

“Yung question ng RH law. Sabi nga natin talaga bang ito ang solusyon sa kahirapan? Hanggang kailan tayo maniniwala na kung babawasan natin yung tao, karamihan sa atin gaganda ang buhay,” said Palma.

He also said that the problem with the environment, particularly on the flooding woes, needs his attention.

“Kung noon bihira lang bumabaha ng malalim, ngayon nagiging rampant na” said Palma.

Finally, Palma said there is a need to review the goal of the economic development being aimed by the administration saying it should be a type that is inclusive.

“Sinasabi din ng CBCP na kung development, hindi lang basta mga gross and profit kundi yung talagang nadarama ng mahihirap. Does it cascade down to the poor?” said the CBCP chief.

Palma’s statement comes on the eve of the fourth State of the Nation Address (Sona) of Aquino on Monday. (HDT/Sunnex)
