SAGUTAN ni Cayetano at Zubiri sa tinawag niyang 'midnight hour' resolution para sa 10 EMBO barangays
Показать описание
Senators Alan Peter Cayetano and Juan Miguel Zubiri on Tuesday engaged in a heated argument over the adoption of a concurrent resolution seeking to include the 10 Enlisted Men's Barrios (EMBO) barangays in the two legislative districts of Taguig City and Municipality of Pateros and confirming the increase of the number of councilors in each district of Taguig.
Zubiri questioned the tackling of Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 23 which was authored by Cayetano, saying this was not part of the Senate's agenda for the plenary session on Tuesday.
While Zubiri understands that this concerns the possible disenfranchisement of votes from EMBO barangays, he wanted the concurrent resolution to be tackled in Wednesday's session.
"It just came out in the air... This is not a simple resolution... Ang akin lang sana explain sana sa amin ano itong pag-uusapan natin. I asked a colleague who represented before these 10 EMBO barangays. She doesn't also know what's going on. Due courtesy lang ba. Show some respect," Zubiri said.
Zubiri pointed out that the Senate is not an institution that passes measures "in the midnight hour...when nobody's around."
Cayetano likewise apologized for raising his voice and clarified that the concurrent resolution, as ruled by the Supreme Court, is like other simple resolutions that do not have a force of law.
In the end, the measure was adopted and Zubiri agreed "with the explanation that it's not a creation of a new district and it's only the sense of Congress."
Under the resolution, the first district will encompass Comembo, Pembo, and Rizal, while the second district will include Cembo, South Cembo, East Rembo, West Rembo, Pitogo, Post Proper Northside, and Post Proper Southside.—LDF, GMA Integrated News
