Liberal Party Member Cong. Ruffy Biazon today filed House Resolution 1587 calling for the term extension of Armed Forces of the Philippines Chief-of-Staff Gen. Victor Ibrado, heeding the clamor from senior AFP officials and other concerned groups. In his resolution, Biazon said that “it would be best if the AFP has a stable leadership during the entire process of the elections, from the beginning of the campaign to the end of the canvassing making stability in the AFP not only crucial but essential, and it would be good to have someone singularly accountable for the AFP during the entire election period.” |

The saga of the Jason Ivler story reflects the social ill of the country...innocent lives which are lost due to uncontrolled violence and loose firearms (like the death of Renato Ebarle Jr.), the youth who are misguided because of the lack of vision and direction from their elders (like Jasen Aguilar Ivler) and the people suffering from the consequences of incompetence in government (like Jason Vivar Aguilar who was mistaken for Ivler). It now remains to be seen if this will go the way of all other stories.... a story that temporarily raises social awareness yet as quickly as it arouses interest, it fades away into a distant memory. I hope this will not only serve as entertainment but a learning experience for all of us. |

|
Written by Ruffy Biazon
|
A party list group participating in the 2010 elections proposed the establishment of an expiration for marriage contracts.
The proposed marriage contract expiration should be opposed because it will endanger the integrity of the ties that bind Philippine Society. The Filipino Family is acknowledged as the basic unit of society and it cannot be denied that marriage is the foundation of most Filipino Families.

The Filipino Family - The Country's Foundation |
|
Written by Ruffy Biazon
|
"The Filipino Family is the foundation of the nation."
In order for our nation to have a firm foundation, we must build up Filipino families. We must enable them to be productive, literate and strong. We must empower them with livelihood, education and health.
But more importantly, the Filipino family should be built up with spiritual, moral and traditional values coupled with a deep sense of patriotism and citizenship.
Charity is not the only thing that begins at home. Everything all begins at home. We must be able to raise good fathers and mothers, good husbands and wives, and good sons and daughters in order for us to raise good citizens. |
