Based at least on the number of new residents from Makati, Taguig could create a new legislative district. Its creation, however, is not as simple as legislating a law. For a district to be created, a plebiscite is required. More in this in-depth report:
, the Supreme Court’s Third Division ruled with finality declaring that Fort Bonifacio and the Enlisted Men’s Barrio are part of the Cayetano dynasty-led Taguig.
With the transfer of these barangays to Taguig, the said district will be left with just 38,143 residents – less than the 250,000 population required to form a congressional district. In an interview with Rappler in June, DILG Secretary Benhur Abalos said they were still waiting for the writ of execution from the Supreme Court on the Makati-Taguig territorial dispute case. He said they could not facilitate the turnover of contested territories without the writ of execution.
“As far as the Comelec is concerned, the second district of Makati still exists as a political entity until a law is enacted, hence, our election officer in the district shall remain even with only two barangays existing,” Garcia said. Its creation, however, is not as simple as legislating a law. For a district to be created, a plebiscite is required.
