I can still vividly remember Professor Roland Simbulan’s lesson about the nature of political parties in the Philippines. Actually, he discussed it every meeting for one whole semester. I can also still remember how he quoted Senator Juan Ponce Enrile regarding the matter. According to Enrile, the only genuine political party in the Philippines is the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP). The CPP is a political party based on ideology which recruits members and formulates and carries out programs based on their core political philosophy. I can also remember how my professor described political parties abroad. He told us about a legitimate and productive communist party in Japan and the ideology-driven Conservative and Labour Parties in the United Kingdom. Unfortunately, these things are not true in Philippine politics.
I’ll be a commentary writer for 100Araw.com–a collaborative project to enlighten the Filipino voting population about everything they should know about the upcoming elections. The articles that would be written here are beyond the superficial level but still strive to be understood by all Filipino people across classes and political benches. Here’s the welcome entry by Tonyo Cruz for more information about 100Araw.com. Congratulations, Kuya Tonyo!
