Political Dynasty in the Philippines Pdf
Political dynasty in the philippines pdf Continue Political dynasties are present in many countries, even those that identify as democracies. But traditional political families in the Philippines are so infamous that a 2012 piece by the Sydney Morning Herald documented a dynasty on steroids. It is noteworthy that political dynasties in the Philippines continue to expand. The article, published by the Ateneo Policy Center' academic think tank From Fat to Obesity: Political Dynasties after the 2019 midterm elections, argues that political dynasties have become fatter over the past 30 years (or 10 election periods). According to the document, the thin dynasty is one where political families mantle public office on other members consistently. Elections are used by family members to replace each other in a political post. On the other hand, the term fat dynasty refers to the family of politicians, while entering public office. Several members of the clan participate in elections simultaneously, running for various positions. Accordingly, the newspaper is so troubling: The results of the 2019 midterm elections have demonstrated the ability of political dynasties to remain in power, as fat dynasties remain entrenched in many parts of the country. While some prominent political dynasties have lost, the overall picture shows that fat dynasties continue to grow on both intense (i.e., the size of political clans among fat dynasties) as well as vast (i.e., the number of political clans that fat dynasties) fields. The threat to democracy, the continued dominance of particular families in elections, in fact, distorted this political exercise in favour of only a special caste of politicians.

For more than 20 years, the ruling family charged with the massacre, the Ampatuans, and its “private army” were responsible for a string of killings and other abuses in the province. The Ampatuans rose to power and enforced their rule with the help—both tacit and overt—of local officials, police, military, and eventually, the administration of then-President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. Even after a flurry of activity and arrests following the Maguindanao massacre, over half of the suspects are still at large and the family remains powerful. They Own the People focuses on the Ampatuans and their militia. The report details their many abuses, including more than 50 alleged incidences of killings, torture, sexual assault, abductions, and enforced disappearances over two decades. It charts the Ampatuans’ rise and expansion, aided by President Arroyo, who relied on the family for crucial votes and support in the protracted armed conflict with Moro armed groups in Mindanao. Based on in-depth investigations in Mindanao, the report draws heavily on “insider” testimony provided by former members of the Ampatuans’ 2000- to 5000-strong private army. Although perhaps one of the most The Philippines | powerful and abusive forces in the Philippines, it is hardly unique: more than 100 private armies are estimated to operate throughout the country.

The 17Th Congress: an Overview
CongressWatch Report No. 191 Report No. 191 13 June 2016 The 17th Congress: An overview The 2016 Philippine Election proved to be successful in terms of voter turnout, with over 44.3 million Filipinos (84% of total registered voters) participating, resulting to a substantially higher turnout rate than those of previous election years. And with the conclusion of the canvassing of votes by the COMELEC and the National Board of Canvassers (NBOC), we now have an overview of the incoming 17th Congress. The Senate Of the 24 senators serving in the 17th Congress for the next three years, six are from the Liberal Party (LP), five are Independent, four are from the United Nationalist Alliance (UNA), three each from both the Nacionalista Party (NP) and the Nationalist People’s Coalition (NPC), and one each from Laban ng Demokratikong Pilipino (LDP), PDP-Laban, and Akbayan. Out of the 12 incoming senators in 2016, only three are incumbents and majority (9 out of 12) are first-term senators, though four of them have already served previously in the Senate. Of the remaining 12 who started their terms in 2013, five will be finishing their second terms by 2019. From the 16th Congress, six senators are ending their second terms; out of the six, one will be serving in a lower position (Sen. Pia Cayetano won as the Representative of the 2nd District of Taguig), two others ran for higher and lower offices but lost, while the remaining three opted not to seek any other elective position. Shortly after the results of the elections were released to the public, Lakas-Christian Muslim Democrats (Lakas- CMD), NP, and NPC signed a coalition agreement with PDP-Laban, incoming President Rodrigo Duterte’s political party, thereby, comprising the presumptive majority bloc in the Senate.
