Title: Only in Pinas
Post by: caligula on June 27, 2013, 09:51:25 AM
While driving, I heard on the news that Italy's ex PM Berlusconi was found guilty of a crime (having six with a minor) and was sentenced to 7 years and ban forever from running in public office.

Then naisip ko how could the Philippines allow the likes of Imelda, Erap, Lacson, to run for office inspite of legal cases laid against them? Wala bang provisions sa atin na secaula vetantur na hindi ka na pwedeng tumakbo?

I'm not a legal expert, but as far as I know it is possible for even convicted criminals to hold public office. There is no such thing as felony disenfranchisement in this country - if you have enough money.

Yep I don't think so. I remember si Jalosjos nga naka kulong pero Ilang beses pa yata nanalo.

The news you've is convicted.......... lahat ng binanggit mong pulitiko ay under trial kaya giving the benefit of the doubt di sila pwedeng bawalan na tumakbo for public office.......... pero syempre ang totoo pera pa din ang pinapagana para di maconvict............ hehehe

That's correct, pero I cited si Jalosjos. Wasn't he convicted already? Ang alam ka nasa kulungan na siya ng Ilan taon pero nananalo parin sa election. He was recently released though if tama ang pagka alala ko. Kindly correct me if I'm wrong.

Anyone care to clarify about him? Hindi ko kasi masyado alam ang story nito.

Correction po........ di pa po sila convicted........ ang isang akusado po ay maaring makulong kung ang kaso nya non-bailable.......... ibig pong sabihin di sila pwede magpiyansa para pansamantalang makalaya......... tulad po kay Jalosjos during nung tumakbo po sya ay may apila pa din sa supreme court kaya base dun ay di pa masasabing final ang kanyang conviction....... eto po ang buod ng istorya ng kanyang kaso......

Dahil po sa pag-affirm ng SC ng desisyon na sya ay guilty, sya po ay tinanggal bilang kongresista.........

I think, maling mali kasi talaga ang sistema dito sa lugar natin. Hindi lahat napapatawan ng kaukulang parusa. Kadalasan, lalo na yung mga may pera, eh nakakalusot sa kabulastugang ginawa nila.
