Pumasa sa second reading ang Right to Information Bill (HB 9397)!
Ito ang pinagsama-samang bersyon ng 29 panukalang batas, kabilang ang Freedom of Information Bill (HB 7306) na inihain ng Akbayan Reform Bloc.
Layunin nitong pabilisin at linawin ang proseso ng pagkuha ng impormasyon mula sa gobyerno:
✅ Kusang ilalabas ng mga ahensya ang impormasyon tungkol sa mga transaksyong mahalaga sa publiko
✅ Magiging accessible sa publiko ang SALN ng mga opisyal ng gobyerno
✅ Magtatayo ng Right to Information (RTI) Commission na independent, quasi-judicial, at may ngipin para ipatupad ang batas
✅ Sakop rin ang mga private entities na gumagamit ng pondo ng bayan o may pampublikong tungkulin
✅ May proteksyon ang sinumang magsiwalat ng katiwalian o maling gawain
✅ May parusa ang lalabag sa batas at magtatago ng impormasyon
Ipagpatuloy natin ang laban para sa gobyernong tapat at walang itinatago. Like and share para suportahan ang agarang pagpasa ng Right to Information Bill!

The International Criminal Court (ICC) has ordered the continued detention of former president Rodrigo Duterte due to persistent risks of flight and obstruction of justice.
In an eight-page decision dated May 22, Trial Chamber III ruled that no significant circumstances justify his release. The court emphasized that the confirmation of charges against Duterte last April increases the risk of him absconding. (📷: ICC) | via @eon_sanchez
'TAKOT NA TAKOT PO AKO' -Pia Cayetano
Nakakahiya naman sa mga EJK victims na binaril mismo sa loob ng bahay o sa harap ng bahay nila at sa harapan ng kapamilya nila! Ayusin nyo drama nyo!
More than half of new grad workers report mental health challenges as they acclimate to full-time professional life, according to a 2023 survey by the Mary Christie Institute. But there’s a difference between the discomfort of growth and the struggle of a bad fit.
Here’s how to tell them apart: https://t.co/ibTiNe1kf5
The key takeaway from the OSG’s comment are these positions the Marcos govt is taking only unequivocally now, after the suspect has ran again: that PH can “legally enforce ICC’s warrant” based on RA 9851, & that Marcos has decided “to accede to the ICC’s request for cooperation.”
