Brillantes: It is really an excellent opportunity to look at the role of government.

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

Atty. Jimmy Hofilena: With the pdaf decision, assuming it sticks - will that ensure better oversight or will it invite problems?

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

Acosta: The immediate implication of this sc ruling, wala na sigurong tatakbo sa kongreso. Mapupunta powers sa executive.

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

Gatchalian: What will happen? My biggest fear is [the role] that money politics might play.

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

Lauraya: Abolition of PDAF instills behavioral change. Next elections will not be about personalities anymore but about issues.

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

(2/2) Guingona: May pondo sa national govt, saan natin ilalagay? Bottom-up budgeting is the answer to the sustainable needs of the people.

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

@TgGuingona: Sustainable na kapalit ng PDAF – bottom-up budgeting. This started in Brazil. Pag-usapan natin. (1/2)

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

@tonylavs: I completely agree with the SC decision. It tells congress you have to do the budget properly.

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

(2/2) Robredo: Kailangang mag-isip ng kapalit, hindi bibigyan ng discretion sinuman pero yung mga nangangailangan matutulungan.

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

Robredo: Biktima tayo ng PDAF. I was really for its abolition. I will convert it into a performance-challenge fund. (1/2)

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

Mendoza: Sa executive na-centralize discretion. Tama ba yun o hindi? Tingnan natin mangyayari.

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

@repkaka: Sa lahat ng bumatikos sa PDAF (Priority Development Assistance Fund) ano po ang alternative?

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

@repkaka: First time nalaman ng mga taga-Dinagat yung PDAF, tatanggalin niyo na? Problema ko paano sa kanila ipaliwanag na mali yun

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

Mendoza: These are tilting points towards better politics. The Court's decision normalizes the relationship bet the legislature and the exec

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

Brillantes: It's about changing values and mindset, our expectations of congressmen and their expectations of us.

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

@tonylavs asked them next: How would the SC decision declaring PDAF unconstitutional change politics?

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

Diokno: The legal profession should be sending legal missions there [in areas hit by Yolanda]. Our team conducts paralegal training.

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

Dean Jose Manuel Diokno of DLSU College of Law: One aspect of disasters: there are a lot of legal consequences when you lose life&property

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

Dean Maria Fe Mendoza of NCPAG: There should be collaborative leadership. Problema natin to lahat, solusyon dapat lahat tayo gumagawa.

[Ateneo ASoG @Ateneo_ASoG]

Dr. Alex Brillantes of @PhCHED : We really have to reform structures but leadership is very important. Values do matter.
