Facti Gabernaculum et Vita
This are, the incontrovertible truth(s) people, have to know. However, the issue that I chose to discuss has rather lapse the time of freshness in the people’s mind to give their reaction and sentiments pertinent to the anomaly wherewith a governmental institution is involved, pabaun and pasalubong system, primarily because of the plurality of issues arising. Causing clogged dockets in the judiciary specifically, in every courtroom. Issues like corruption, a public official malversating government coffers, deprivation of the constitutional and civil rights of the people, which is inalienably and imprescriptibly inherent from the point of their existence, etc., etc., etc.
If the facts are against you pound on the law, if the law is against you pound on the facts, if both are against you pound on the table. Perhaps pounding on the table is the excellent thing mala fide officials of the AFP officials should do because both the facts and the law do not favor them for their indecent and unethical act. Pabaun and pasalubong system has become the accepted custom adopted by AFP, which has been overlooked by the government, or perhaps the government were not doing anything to preclude this act if not to eradicate it for they might be one of the primary benefactors thereof.
There are laws that assured strict penalties for the violations of the provisions contained therein. Nevertheless, how is it that this illegal, unprofessional, and corrupt act such as the pabaun and pasalubong system still takes its toll? Where is the fairness in the legislated laws? Why is it that our laws are only prosecuting and grinding the poor ones of whom some are innocent and acquitting the rich notwithstanding the felonious offense they have deliberately committed which is a direct blasphemy of the authority of the law and the government promulgating the same? Ultimately, does the law countenance the custom they are following? They often claimed that they are

    Gacaca courts were used as an administration tool to determine the seriousness of the cases, analyze the importance of the processes and relieving pressure on the ordinary court system. From the document called “Gacaca Community Justice” the perspective that can be obtained it’s that it was written by a Gacaca monitor because it’s directly offered by a site of theirs. Can be considered that as an author he has been actively collaborating with the Gacaca Courts, and obviously, because of that, he wants to transmit a productive perspective of the Gacaca Courts mission. This journal entry supports the collaboration of the Gacaca Courts when it suggests that: “The inyangamugayo (people of integrity), was introduced to evaluate cases. These men and women were local government officials who attended Gacaca court proceeding to analyze the cases levels of importance and process transfers”. This evidence emphasizes that the people that worked as judges of the Gacaca Courts were people that were known as effectively honest and that, advocate for justice for both groups and weren’t partially focus on one in specific. On the other hand, it’s clear that the integrants of the Gacaca Courts were capable to analyze the depth of each one of the cases that were attended by the…

    In my opinion, a business organization most of the time tolerate techniques bordering the unethical to pursue the business and to establish good relationships. In the Philippines, as we all know, we have a bureaucratic system in all our government agencies. In order to expedite the process, business owners may facilitate it in different ways and as to how fit they see it. Small or big gestures are construed as “abilidad” and bordering to act of bribery. This is an unavoidable circumstance given that we, Filipinos, value relationship, hospitality and traits that are specific to our culture. In some, it may not be to achieve revenue objectives but rather merely a representation of the business to establish a good relationship with government. This “abilidad” mostly can be observed in small and medium scale enterprises rather than multinational corporations. Multinational corporations may already have established policies for dealing with government agencies and act of bribery may not be tolerated.…

    After considering the present situation of AFP corruption case, I therefore conclude that the problem is the lack of political will on the part of the leaders. If the government stated that they are only providing more guarantees on the rights of those accused, it is not reasonable because having a political will in our government must incorporate the right of an accused one as included in our laws. Although finding the corrupt officials and investigating…

Fernan” in which Resolution, the Courtresolved to dismiss the charges made by Cuenco against Fernan for utter lack of merit. The Court resolved to requireCuenco to show cause why he should not be administratively dealt with for making unfounded serious accusations againstFernan.Important principles of AC 3135Article 8, Section 7 (1987 Constitution). A public officer who under the Constitution is required to be a Member of thePhilippine Bar as a qualification for the office held by him and who may be removed from office only by impeachment, cannot be charged with disbarment during the incumbency of such public officer.Lecaroz v Sandiganbayan. Proscribes the removal from office of the aforementioned constitutional officers by any other method; otherwise, to allow a public officer who may be removed solely by impeachment to be charged criminally whileholding his office with an offense that carries the penalty of removal from office, would be violative of the clear mandate of the fundamental law.Impeachment first, before criminal and other actions. There is fundamental procedural requirement that must be observed before such liability may be determined and enforced.

    Firstly, let ask what probably drove former police officer Rolando Mendoza to be desperate enough to take a whole bus full of tourist’s hostage and eventually kill many of them. My simple analysis is the fact that perhaps Mendoza no longer trusted and believed in the judicial institutions can provide him with a fair and equal judgment. What happened to Mendoza is an effect of the corruption of our democratic institutions that are tasked to protect the rights of every Filipino. Yet, because institutions such as our courts, the Office of the Ombudsman and the COMELEC are now tarnished with so much graft and corruption, people such as Mendoza no longer have a venue to air our their grievances thus, they often resort to extra-judicial means in order for them to get the justice that they think…

    We are human, we don’t have the ability to see or witness what’s really happening in our surroundings, we don’t have many eyes to spread all over the corner of this world or shall we say we don’t have the access to all gadget to serve as an evidence in our case if we are suspected in such crime. We don’t have a lawyer like King Solomon who have the wisdom that comes from God. We don’t have a judge like our God, who sees & knows everything. And now how can you tell me that we can judge everybody fairly?
