Ominous massive fraud in the May 9 Philippine Elections

Re-Engineering and Modernization of Electoral Systems

First of 3 parts

Recently, the shamelessly clear trending operation being conducted by the administration to justify cheating in the 2016 elections a TV Channel has suddenly propelled Liberal Party candidate Mar Roxas close to the top ranked presidential candidate. Roxas literally leapt over the heads of the two other presidential candidates, Jejomar Binay and Grace Poe Llamanzares.

Maria Leonor Robredo, Roxas’ vice-presidential running mate, suddenly jumped to the top rank of the vice-president candidates, sharing the lead with Ferdinand Marcos Jr.  Disguised as a come out and vote as well as vote honestly campaign, the ABS CBN Ipanalo ang Pamilyang Pilipino cheap gimmick revealed its true face as ABS CBN star anchor Boy Abunda made different spiels on ang boto para sa Pamilyang Pilipino ay Mar Roxas (the vote for the the Filipino Family is the vote for Mar Roxas.)

Zarzuelas and tragicomedies

The Philippines needs to modernize its fiscal management and a number of many other systems, including elections.

Without checks and balances, there is no guaranty that the country will not suffer so much more in the years to come. The damage could become irreparable.

At this time, there are zarzuelas and other scripted tragic comedias going on. With the government’s office of financial responsibility and accountability presenting a one-sided view of corruption and graft, selected persons are painted to be crooks and thieves. Conveniently excluded are the bigger crooks and bigger thieves now laughing in the sidelines.

Photo below shows protesters campaigning for the abolition of the discretionary fund of politicians.
