Davao City Rep. Paolo Duterte said he is not against the proposal to call for a constitutional convention (con-con), but he thinks it is untimely as the country is facing more pressing issues.

In a statement, Duterte explained his “no” vote to Resolution of Both Houses No. 6, which calls for a con-con.

“This is to express our irresolution with the immediate approval of RBH No. 6. To reiterate, we are not in opposition against the said measure per se, but we suppose that it is not timely, our country is facing more pressing social and economic issues, like inflation and poverty among others, that we need to prioritize,” he said.

“Billions to be allocated for a constitutional convention could be allocated instead to other programs intended to improve the living conditions of thousands of Filipino families,” he added.It is still unclear if Duterte’s no vote to RBH No. 6 was registered. Plenary notes still indicate the 301-6-1 vote.- Camarines Sur 3rd District Rep. Gabriel Bordado Jr.- Basilan Rep. Mujiv Hataman- Negros Oriental 3rd District Rep. Arnolfo Teves Jr. abstained.

The House approval came less than two months since the Committee on Constitutional Amendments began public consultations on charter change at the Batasang Pambansa and select venues in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. Details of the con-con, such as the funding and qualifications of delegates, are in accompanying measure House Bill 7532 now in plenary debates.

Sabi ng isa sa mga pinuno ng china-davao mafia?!

Oi..may exposure..

This sounds reasonable. Malaki din ang gastos dyan sa con-con na yan.

Makes sense.

Delikado ba si utol sa 2028?

nemen 😝

Kunwari ka pa. Drama mo parang drama ni Imee.

Let us pray. May God send St. Michael to save us from the snares of the devil. May he cast into hell, Satan and all his evil minions sitting in this Marcos-Duterte administration.

No it's not

Of course. He wants his sister to run as president in 2028. But when his idiot dad was in malacanang, he was all for it. No love of country here, just selfish motives. Like father, like son.

Another just a political statement from a political actor

Wow, gulat ako dito, ah!
