"Sana po mag-focus po muna tayo sa restrictive economic provisions," said Teves, who served as former president Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo's Finance chief."consensus" in terms of setting the objectives of the moves to amend the 1987 Constitution.
Alvarez, who like Padilla is pushing for a federal form of government, said that limiting the changes to the economic provisions "obviously" means only investors' interests are being looked after.
