Cha-cha finds hope in con-ass

Cha-cha finds hope in con-ass
November 5, 2006 The Bohol Standard

TIME MAY be slipping away but there is no turning back from Charter change for the administration House majority bloc.

Deputy Speaker Gerry Salapuddin and Representative Mauricio Domogan (Lakas, Baguio City), vice chair of the House committee on constitutional amendments, said the House would not be swayed by critics’ claims that Charter change was dead.

Salapuddin said a caucus called by Speaker Jose de Venecia for next week would be crucial for House members in planning their strategy on convening a constituent assembly and proposing Charter amendments even without the Senate's participation.

“We may call the double loss in the (Commission on Elections) and (Supreme Court) a temporary setback, but certainly nobody loves a loser,” he said.

Salapuddin said the Charter change proponents wanted to “fast-track the process because we believe that time is not on our side.”

He added: “To say that we should scrap con-ass (constituent assembly) now is to turn our backs on our constituents who want Cha-cha (Charter change) for the betterment of our country.”

Domogan said opposition calls for the House to give up the idea of a constituent assembly “is always their song.”

“This is a crucial moment for Cha-cha and we, in the House, will show solidarity in pushing con-ass to dispel the negativism of anti-Cha-cha groups,” Domogan said.

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.
