Role of Media in Philippine Elections in 2010
« on: July 24, 2009, 03:21:06 PM »
The Commission on Elections (Comelec)has underscored the vital role of media in its education and information campaign on poll automation as well as in the prevention of election-related incidents.

Lawyer Dennis Ausan, Comelec regional director, said they consider the media as viable partners in the forthcoming elections for a transparent and credible first-time poll automation.

"The Comelec is currently drafting a new set of guidelines for media coverage. But, we assured the media that we will be giving our full support for their coverages as they do their tasks in informing the public about the conduct of the election," Ausan said.

In Western Visayas, Ausan said, the poll body is preparing for a hundred percent automation of election.

He said part of the preparations is the conduct of series of forum among the voters.

He also said the COMELEC will place satellite disks in areas needing special attention.

"To date, we already have reduced 230,000 of multiple voters from our lists and we expect that the numbers will increase as the election period nears," he said.

Ausan also urged voters to respect the sanctity of their ballots and not engage in vote-buying.(PNA)

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.

No vote buying?.... I am sure they will find a way to pay like they always do.
