Gov. Erico Aumentado has denounced political dynasties being perpetuated by some Bohol politicians and vowed that he will "never allow a single member of his family to run for public office while he is governor."

The governor lamented that until now, the Anti Dynasty Bill has not been acted upon by the country's legislators.

Aumentado bared during his weekly radio program The Governor Reports that he authored and filed the bill during his incumbency as congressman of the second district.

The Senate version of said bill was crafted by then Sen. Wigberto Tanada, he said.          

Aumentado explained that the bill was filed in accordance with the constitutional provision that ban politicians to endorse close relatives within the fourth degree of consanguinity in seeking elective positions at the same time.

However, such constitutional provision requires an enabling congressional law to be implemented, the governor said, hence, the Anti Dynasty Bill.

This pronouncements by the governor came in the midst of scions and relatives of powerful political families fighting over Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan seats.

Yes,?coz' most of our fellow still wanna sell thier votes.So sad about that El Mundo.

Dad is a seaman and dad's son wants to be just like father so he wants to be a seaman also.

Like father like son like daughter like mother so whats the difference?

It is what the child is exposed to most of his life and what he is use to seeing his parents do?

hey they have rights as citizens just like the rest of the people.

If they want to run for office do be it then.

Its not fair to be rubbed out of something you want to do just because your blood members are also involved in the local politics.

If mama is a former beauty queen isn't not alright to let daughter have a chance at the same if she wants?
It's our choice our freedom to run for office no matter what our rage, color, creed, and religion.

It is a VERY SAD thing that people entering politics are not there to serve the people but to serve their own vested interest.

Hugaw na kaayo ang politika sa atoa. Gihimo na nilang business ang politika. Kinsa kadtong daghan ug puhunan maoy modaog.

Tan-awa kana si Concepcion Lim maong unopposed siya kay tagpila ka libo ang gipanghatag ana.
Kasukaon nako maghunahuna sa atong mga political leaders ron. Rare ra kaayo ang di corrupt!

I feel so sad that noone cares or bothers to bring justice to that rape students in Bohol High.
And I feel angry that our authorities even tried to hide the truth about what happened to the japanese tourists.

Kinsa pamay atong touhan ug saligan sa atong mga gitawag nga "public servant??"

kalooy sa mga pobreng Pilipino..ang hustisya kanila giagaw.
Kanus-a pa kaha mahigmata ang atong katawhan? Aron di na sila magpailad pa?
