Red-tagging as weapon in electoral campaign
Red-tagging as weapon in electoral campaign
One wouldn’t have been surprised, but definitely would have wished that President Duterte – basically in self-respect but much more so in respect for his high public office – shouldn’t have done it.
Without offering proof, in his televised public address last Monday, Duterte again accused the Makabayan Coalition of using the party-list system to infiltrate Congress through its five party-list election participants. These parties have all been duly vetted and certified by the Comelec in every national election since 2001 – when Bayan Muna topped the party-list voting that year, winning the maximum allowable three seats in the House of Representatives. Bayan Muna has maintained representation in the House until today.
