Vice President Binay “NO to President Aquino’s 2nd term”

Jejomar Binay Vice President of the Philippines finally expressed its true opinion on the call for the term extension of President Benigno Aquino for another term in the Malacañang. The issue emerged through campaign from social media.

Binay, who is obviously aiming for the presidential chair this coming 2016 presidential election, he said that he believed that President Aquino will set an example as what his mother did for the reelection after its term expired dated June 30, 1992.

Recently Secretary Mar Roxas made a pitch on the extension of Presidents term through a constitutional change. It was considered a selfish proposal as what Vice President Binay responded on the statement. Opposition law maker threatened to go in Supreme Court if the Administration allies were to push the constitutional amendments that will allow the term extension of President Aquino.

Representative Neri Colmenares of Bayan Muna fears that term extension is a strategic plan for the motive behind the organized Cha-cha (Charter change) initially directed at a certain provisions in the Philippine economy.

 “The proposed extension of the President term is merely an attempt to stay in power by the Aquino Administration, not a clamor of a discontented populace,” Colmenares said.
