Citizen's impeachment watch

CIVIL-SOCIETY groups launched today the Citizen's Impeachment Watch, an
initiative to mobilize the so-called middle forces so they can take an
active part in the "process of change," beginning with the impeachment of
Pres. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.
Caught in the present political crisis, the middle forces - business,
academe, professionals - have remained silent until this moment despite the
fact that majority of them believe that Pres. Arroyo has lost all moral
authority to govern in light of allegations of systematic electoral fraud.
They want her to step down or face impeachment but are wary of the
discredited group of traditional oppositionists who they see as
"opportunists." They are also cold to the idea of extra-constitutional
change for fear it might lead to violence and chaos.
With the impeachment process in the House of Representatives seemingly in
peril given that most of its members are allies of the ruling coalition,
the impeachment watch - organized by people's organizations and NGOs led by
the multisectoral National Peace Conference and Philippine Alternative
Study Center for Research, Education and Social Development (PASCRES) - is
banking on the middle forces to break their silence by "encouraging their
legislators to vote according to their conscience and make sure that the
process is transparent and will not be soiled by partisan politics."
The impeachment watch groups will be linking with the business sector,
professionals and students to lobby Congress by engaging in letter-writing
campaigns and personal meetings with legislators through out the
impeachment process to ensure that the case against Arroyo "prospers to
pave the way for truth and justice." Symposiums and forums will also be
conducted around the country. A website is also in the works
to provide people with an online
information network where they can access the scoreboards, alerts,
petitions and other relevant impeachment-related materials.
As opening salvo timed with the start of House justice committee hearings
on the impeachment complaint against Arroyo tomorrow, "impeachment
watchboards" will be placed in strategic locations in various parts of the
country including schools and markets to "inform the public about the
status of the impeachment case. The tally boards will be featuring the
names of legislators who have already signed the complaint, but more
importantly those who are anti-impeachment (or pro-Arroyo), and who have
yet to declare their position on the issue.
As of today, August 9, the Citizen's Impeachment Watch tally has the
following House members either against the impeachment (left column) or who
have yet to declare their positions (right column). Clicking on the links
will direct you to information culled from the representatives' statements
of assets and liabilities and PCIJ research available on i-site.
