CHA-CHA Survey
Malacañang cannot just ignore the results of the survey conducted by the SWS showing that 70 percent of adult Filipinos are against charter change that would allow President Arroyo to continue in power after 2010.
The question posed by the survey firm was clear enough. It asked the respondents whether they are for or against a charter amendment that would allow President Arroyo to cling to power.
They are firmly against it. In addition, 55% believed that the President is behind the move to amend the Constitution to prolong her hold on government. Instead of denying the accuracy and validity of the survey results, Malacañang should face the issue squarely and answer frankly whether or not the people’s suspicions are correct.
Posing like a Sphinx is not what is expected by the people of their governor in a democratic society. What they want is transparency, honesty and truth.
