The PDP-Laban will support efforts to amend or revise the economic provisions of the 1987 Constitution. | BPinlacINQ
At a Senate hearing on Monday, Matibag said PDP-Laban will defer to Congress on the mode of amending the 1987 Constitution.
But he said a con-con would be a “good alternative” so as not to hamper the lawmaking obligations of the Senate and the House of Representatives. Matibag also argued that “it is but proper that the people directly choose who will represent them to change the Constitution.” But this is different from the mode being pushed by Padilla, the prime Cha-cha mover in the upper chamber, who is seeking to loosen the restrictive economic provisions in the decades-old constitution through con-ass.Padilla, head of the Senate panel on constitutional amendments and revision of codes, had earlier said mustering support from PDP-Laban members on the push for constitutional changes should be “automatic.
He also threatened to resign from the party and go independent should PDP-Laban refuse to stand behind his Cha-cha crusade.
