Presidential bet Isko Moreno vows to send to jail gov't officials, private company executives guilty of plunder in Pharmally scandal.

Isko is shooting himself in the foot one quote at a time. Being a neutral candidate is only beneficial if you are a true neutral, not opportunistic. Either this will work or everyone will just label him as a closet DDS and Dilawan and even the Neutertes will catch up.

Let's just wait if Leni runs, we can only ponder who to vote.

The question should be, if Duterte was found guilty by ICC, would you surrender him?

I have a better question for him:

Can he fix the judicial system so that these people are actually found guilty? Can he build a system where things like this don't happen anymore, or, they are stopped before they can reach this degree of theft?

This is something I'd like to see touched on by the candidates rather than just specific case statements like this.

My perspective on that is this - one of Duterte's biggest failures is that the justice system is still slow, broken and weak. Those with connections, the elite, the wealthy, continue to get away with all sorts of shady things all the time. So much murder and violence has happened since 2016 and yet many of those cases haven't been resolved still. If Duterte kept his campaign promises, we wouldn't have these problems now in 2021.

And it isn't just him that's the problem. In this sub, I often hear suggestions of "death penalty for corrupt officials". Sure, I can understand that sentiment but how will that be enforced if we can't even find them guilty to begin with?

It's why I have some high expectations for all of the non-Duterte candidates. I'll wait and see if any of them can deliver proper reforms that aren't just appealing to people's sense of bloodthirst.

kaya mo bang ipakulong si Digong? kung makadefend kala mo abogado ng pharmally

bilib ako sayo kung nagawa mo yun, else wag ka na magpaasa

Hard pass on isko. He should serve more terms of mayorship to prove himself. Not just ride his popularity from this pandemic. Plus gambling is an addiction. I will not risk the people's coffer on this guy. The temptation is too great. cough erap

Medyo suspicious ang dating ni isko dito hahah

Of course they're going to jail if guilty. That's literally one of the penalties.

Iniisip ko nga kung anong version nya na magjejetski sa WPS. Andyan na ang red flags sana madala dala na tayo

Another populist candidate. I smell bullshit sa pagka-mayor pa lang, what more pag president na. Kiliting kiliti naman mga tao once he blurts out kanto words. Cringe.

I'm confused, thought he was going to run for President and not apply as a judge

urur ka domagoso.

Will he jail Duterte and the Marcoses for their crimes against Filipinos?

nung tahimik si yorme sa pharmally, dami sinasabi. ngayong may sinabi na, ibang topic naman haha

Lol very sus

Weh. Walang 3-6 months? Pumpboat instead of jetski? Baka hindi lang "whiff" of corruption, he'll go straight to ass-rimming.
