Senator Win Gatchalian on Saturday said proposals to amend the 1987 Constitution were not a priority in the Senate, especially the political amendments.

In a radio interview, Gatchalian said some senators were unconvinced of the need for Charter change, especially on political amendments, which were only “for self-interest.”

Speaker Martin Romualdez said the House aimed to limit the Charter change initiative to the economic provisions of the constitution “to attract more foreign investments.”"Ako kahit nag-file nung economic provisions gusto ko pa rin pakinggan ang mga eksperto kung itong ating panukala eh makakatulong sa bansa o hindi. Sa aking pananaw makakatulong pero pakinggan din natin yung mga iba pang eksperto,” the senator said.
