Zubiri confirms Senate manifesto against people’s initiative for Cha-cha

MANILA, Philippines — The Senate has come up with a manifesto rejecting  a people’s initiative for Charter change (Cha-cha).

Senate President  Juan  Miguel Zubiri himself confirmed this on  Tuesday.

“Yes and will share later,” Zubiri  said in a Viber message when asked about the manifesto.

He provided no other details as of posting.

Zubiri already filed a resolution last January 15 proposing changes to certain economic provisions of the Constitution, in an apparent bid to stop the PI.

The resolution was co-authored by Senate President Pro Tempore Loren Legarda and Senator Sonny Angara .
