Duterte Administration Vs. Opposition: Year 2018 => Ano-ano ang "Pitong (7) Armas" na inihahanda ng opposition na gagamiting pangontra Vs. Duterte Administrtion?..Alamin po natin!!!

       Pitong Armas ng Opposition Vs. Duterte Administration ikinakasa na:

1.) War on Drugs
Opposition senators urged the Senate to unite and stand against the spate of killings during anti-illegal drug operations over the past week, including the death of a 17-year-old student in Caloocan City.
In a statement sent to the media, the Senate Minority Bloc called on their fellow senators to “stand in solidarity against the senseless killings” brought about by the government’s bloody crackdown on illegal drugs.
“Sobra na. Maling-mali na talaga to. (This is enough. This is so wrong.) I cannot, in conscience, let this pass. The senators should have a united stand to stop this,” Senator Antonio Trillanes IV said.

2.) Extrajudicial killing (EJK)
A TOTAL of 3,257 extrajudicial killings (EJKs) were committed during the Marcos dictatorship. In contrast, there were 805 drug-related fatalities from May 10 (when Rodrigo Duterte emerged winner of the presidential election) to Aug. 12, per the Inquirer count.
If the current rate continues, the total number of EJKs for the six years of the Duterte administration will end up about 700 percent more than the killings committed during the 14 years of the Marcos dictatorship.
President Duterte is either ill-advised or terribly underestimating the risk that he can be held liable at the International Criminal Court, given the circumstances of the killings.

3.) The links of Paolo Duterte on Drugs sindicateThe tattoo that the vice mayor of Davao supposedly had that proved to be the real controversy during the hearing.
Trillanes accused Paolo Duterte of being part of an international criminal syndicate, saying that a tattoo on Paolo's back would prove it. The opposition senator alleged that he had received intelligence that a dragon-like image with secret digits was tattooed on Paolo Duterte's back.
The tattoo is the mark of the members of the Chinese triad, said Trillanes. The triad is a transnational criminal organization based in China, Singapore, Taiwan, and other countries that have substantial Chinese populations. The crime group has been linked to human trafficking and arms dealing.

4.) The Train Law                                                                                                         The foregone revenues from the lowering of income taxes is compensated by the TRAIN, by imposing steep taxes on fuel, which can trigger an increase in the prices of basic commodities.
“I urge the administration and the Congress to start working on the rationalization of fiscal incentives granted to companies so that we can make our tax system more equitable,” Drilon said.
“The TRAIN burdened the poor with higher taxes on fuel. It’s about time that we review the incentives granted to companies to see if such incentives are necessary and continue to serve the purpose for which they are granted,” Drilon added.
He said “it is utterly unfair” that the poor would have to share the burden of raising revenues for the government under Republic Act 10963 or the TRAIN law while the rich companies would continue to enjoy all forms of tax perks and tax holidays.
“That is against the basic principle of progressive taxation, which dictates that the higher a person’s income, the higher his taxes should be. It’s about time that Congress address this inequality in our current tax system,” he said.

5.) Martial Law in Mindanao                                                                                      Opposition lawmakers called out President Rodrigo Duterte over his seeming rejection of constitutional provisions allowing Congress and the Supreme Court (SC) to assess the martial law declaration in Mindanao. "Is the President saying that he's willing to violate the Constitution? He is on his way to becoming a dictator," said Ifugao Representative Teddy Baguilat Jr on Monday, May 29.

6.) The Charter Change to Federalism                                                                           Minority leader Franklin Drilon filed a resolution pushing for constitution convention to revise the 1987 Constitution.
Drilon said there is a need to re-examine the 29-year-old Constitution and see “if it is still attuned or responsive to the demands of present-day realities."
Pursuant to Article XVII, Section 3 of the Constitution, Congress may, by a vote of two-thirds of all its members, call a constitutional convention to propose amendments to, or a revision of, the Constitution.

7.) The possible term extension of Pres. Duterte                                                       The former ruling Liberal Party (LP) will oppose a possible term extension for President Rodrigo Duterte, Senate Minority Leader Franklin Drilon said Wednesday.
Drilon was sought for comment on Senate President Aquilino “Koko” Pimentel III’s statement that Duterte’s six-year term may be extended “if really necessary” and “if he is amenable to it” during the transition to a federal form of government.
“The cat is out of the bag! At least, the real purpose of federalism is out—term extension! LP will oppose such immoral proposition,” Drilon said.
