Likely with a view to the 2022 elections, it will backfire as Tthe public becomes more discerning and less easily manipulated than the administration assumes. The durability of the Duterte administration will be tested in 2020. It will struggle to arrest the economic slowdown and the social unrest this stirs. It will also be forced to deal with growing political challenges to its rule especially with the prospect of strong international rebuke. But the far-reaching damage of the administration to the country in the middle of its term is already clear – its neoliberal authoritarianism has greatly worsened elite control of politics and the economy. Ever greater efforts are needed to arrest the continued backsliding of the country’s fledgling democracy in the remaining years of the Duterte watch.

  • The 2019 May Elections and Its Implications on the Duterte Administration
    The 2019 May Elections and its Implications on the Duterte Administration National Political Situationer No. 01 19 February 2019 Center for People Empowerment in Governance (CenPEG) National Political Situationer No. 01 19 February 2019 The 2019 May Elections and its Implications on the Duterte Administration The last three years of any elected administration can be very contentious and trying times. The national leadership’s ability to effectively respond to political and related challenges will be significantly shaped by the outcome of the upcoming 2019 mid-term elections. Indeed, the 2019 election is a Prologue to the 2022 elections in all its uncertainties and opportunities. While the 2019 election is only one arena of contestation it can set the line of march for more momentous events for the next few years. Introduction Regular elections are an enduring feature of Philippine political life. While there continue to be deep-seated structural and procedural problems attending its practice in the country, the electoral tradition is a well-established arena for choosing elected representatives from the lowest governing constituency (the barangays) to the national governing bodies (the legislature and the presidency). Electoral exercises trace their roots to the first local elections held during the Spanish and American colonial eras, albeit strictly limited to the propertied and educated classes. Under American colonial rule, the first local (town) elections were held as early as 1899 and in 1907 the first election for a national legislature was conducted. Thus, with the exception of the Japanese occupation era (1942-1945) and the martial law period under Pres. Marcos (1972-1986; although sham elections were held in 1978 and 1981), the country has experienced regular although highly contested elections at both the local and national levels for most of the country’s political history.

  • THE MAY 2019 MID-TERM ELECTIONS: Outcomes, Process, Policy Implications
    CenPEG Political Situationer No. 07 10 July 2019 THE MAY 2019 MID-TERM ELECTIONS: Outcomes, Process, Policy Implications Introduction The May 2019 mid-term elections took place amidst the now familiar problems of compromised voting transparency and accuracy linked with the automated election system (AES). Moreover, martial law was still in place in Mindanao making it difficult for opposition candidates to campaign freely. Towards election time, the systematic red-tagging and harassment of militant opposition candidates and civil society organizations further contributed to an environment of fear and impunity. In this context, the Duterte administration’s official candidates and allies won most of the contested seats nationally and locally but how this outcome impacts on the remaining three years of the administration is open to question. This early, the partisan realignments and negotiations for key positions in both the House and the Senate and the maneuverings for the 2022 presidential elections are already in place. Such actions are bound to deepen more opportunistic behavior by political allies and families and affect the political capital of the presidency as it faces new challenges and problems in its final three years in office. The Senate Elections: “Duterte Magic?” In an electoral process marred by persistent transparency and accuracy problems embedded in the automated election system, the administration candidates and allies dominated the elections. This victory has been attributed to the so-called “Duterte magic” but a careful analysis of the winning 12 candidates for the Senate shows a more nuanced reading of the results. At best, President Duterte and the administration can claim full credit for the victory of four senators: Christopher “Bong” Go, Ronald “Bato” de la Rosa, Francis Tolentino, and Aquilino “Koko” Pimentel III.

    ISSUE: 2019 No. 27 ISSN 2335-6677 RESEARCHERS AT ISEAS – YUSOF ISHAK INSTITUTE ANALYSE CURRENT EVENTS Singapore | 11 April 2019 Philippine Mid-term Elections: A Duterte Double Malcolm Cook* EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • On 13 May, the Philippines will hold elections for all local and provincial positions, all seats in the House of Representatives, and half of the 24 seats in the Senate. • If the current opinion polls prove accurate (as they have in the past): o President Rodrigo Duterte and his daughter Sara Duterte, even though neither is running for national office, will be the biggest winners nationally; o the composition of the new Senate will be more favourable to President Duterte and his campaign for a new federal constitution; and o the new Hugpong ng Pagbabago (HNP) party coalition led by Sara Duterte will be well placed for the 2022 presidential and legislative elections. *Malcolm Cook is Senior Fellow at ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute. 1 ISSUE: 2019 No. 27 ISSN 2335-6677 INTRODUCTION The 13 May mid-term elections in the Philippines, with over 18,000 elected positions to be decided, will be the second largest exercise in democracy in Southeast Asia this year after the 17 April elections in Indonesia. To the chagrin of drinkers and bettors, on Monday 13 May, the “selling, furnishing, offering, buying, serving, or taking intoxicating liquor” will be prohibited across the Philippines as will the “holding of fairs, cockfights, boxing, horse races or any other similar sports.1 The coverage of Philippine mid-term elections in the post-Marcos era invariably focusses more on the Senate than the House of Representatives or sub-national positions and are seen as a partial referendum on the serving president even though their name does not appear on the ballot.

Duterte gave carte blanche to the Philippine National Police (PNP) to kill drug pushers and dealers at will as long as they could somehow claim to have been acting in self-de- fense. Thousands of suspects died at the hand of police officers and vigilantes who understood Duterte’s rash rhetoric as an invitation to participate in a state-led, nationwide killing spree. However, killings were not uniformly spread across the Philippines, but focused on highly urban- ized regions and especially the National Capital Region (NCR) and the adjacent regions of Central Luzon and CALABARZON (regs.

    FEATURE Electoral Disinformation: Looking Through the Lens of Tsek.ph Fact Checks Yvonne T. Chua and Jake C. Soriano Elections are fertile ground for disinformation. The 2019 midterm elections, like the 2016 presidential election, buttress this observation. This ugly side of electoral contests is documented by Tsek.ph, a pioneering collaborative fact-checking initiative launched by three universities and eleven newsrooms specifically for the midterms. Its repository of fact checks provides valuable insights into the nature of electoral disinformation before, during and after the elections. Clearly, electoral disinformation emanates from candidates and supporters alike, on conventional (e.g., speeches and sorties) and digital (e.g., social media) platforms. Its wide range of victims includes the media no less. Keywords: Philippines, elections, Tsek.ph, fact-checking, journalism If there was one bright spot in the May 13, 2019 Philippines midterm elections, that certainly would be the groundbreaking collaborative fact- checking initiative undertaken by media and academia to help counter the escalation of political disinformation in the country. Launched February 11, the eve of the campaign period, Tsek.ph was instrumental in addressing newsroom rivalry and other barriers that for years had deterred newsrooms from working alongside one another, not even after the Philippines was dubbed “Patient Zero” of the modern disinformation age as early as 2016 (Rappler, 2018).

  • The 2019 Elections: Democracy, Dutertismo, and the Battle for Succession
    MARCH 2019 R Quarterly Publication of the ADRInstitute SPARKthethe key linklink between between IDEAS IDEAS and and ACTION ACTION THE 2019 ELECTIONS: DEMOCRACY, DUTERTISMO, AND THE BATTLE FOR SUCCESSION adrinstitute.org THE 2019 ELECTIONS:The paper discusses the dynamics as well as the broader relevance of the Philippines’s 2019 midterm elections. It argues that the upcoming DEMOCRACY, elections are the most important in the country’s history for two interrelated reasons. First, it will be the largest and most expensive in Philippine history, with more than 50 million voters expected to participate. And it’s taking DUTERTISMO place amid a period of intensified structural transition, as the country seeks to cope with unique 21st century challenges, both endogenously (think of AND demographic summer and infrastructure deficit) and exogenously (think of Sino-American trade war), and take advantage of renewed opportunities as one of the brightest stars in the emerging markets. Second, the THE BATTLE mid-term elections serve as a de facto referendum on Rodrigo Duterte’s presidency, which has been unorthodox, disruptive, and at times even FOR innovative. Amid widespread extrajudicial killings and systematic assault on the country’s democratic checks and balances, the opposition hopes to mobilize opposition to what they view as nothing short of a SUCCESSION creeping authoritarianism. Thus, Duterte’s opponents and critics, including those in the liberal-democratic civil society, Catholic Church, and progressive-leftist circles, hope to check the forward march of “Dutertismo,” namely the right-wing populist ideology of the incumbent leadership, which has openly questioned the foundational principles of the post-Marcos Philippine Republic.
