Group echoes calls to disclose qualified party-list groups
Migrante-Middle East (M-ME), a migrants’ rights group, today echoed the call of a Catholic Church-based poll watchdog addressed to the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) to reveal the qualified party-list groups that will be gunning for the midterm 2013 elections.
On 7 September 2012, CBCP News online quoted (http://www.cbcpnews.com/cbcpnews/?p=3417)
Parish Pastoral Council for Responsible Voting (PPCRV) chairperson Henrietta De Villa called on the COMELEC to reveal the party-list groups and its nominees for the May 2013 elections noting that the poll body has ‘still a lot of things to do to ensure credible and orderly elections in May 2013’.
“It’s been a long time and until now the result has not yet been announced and to think the filing of candidacies will already be on October 1 to 5,” de Villa added.
On their part, M-ME regional coordinator John Leonard Monterona said the call by the PPCRV on the COMELEC to reveal the qualified party-list group is reasonable and it does make sense as the May 2013 elections come nearer.
“It seems that the COMELEC missed to follow its own calendar of activities relative to the accreditation of party-list groups considering the relatively numerous groups that applied for accreditation,” Monterona said.
Monterona, however, recognizes the need for the COMELEC to be cautious in the accreditation of groups especially that there are bogus groups that were previously accredited, which in fact did not genuinely represent a marginalized sector as stipulated in the Party-list System Act.
“But groups that genuinely represent marginalized sectors and have established track record in serving the sector they represent should not be deprived to participate in the upcoming elections and their chances to conduct electoral campaign will not be affected,” Monterona noted.
He cited for instance the accreditation of Migrante Sectoral Party to be known as MIGRANTE, the electoral group of progressive OFWs organizations and their families, which is also pending at the COMELEC.
Prior to May 2010 elections, the COMELEC delisted Migrante Sectoral Party for failure to garner a seat for two consecutive party-lists elections (2004 and 2007) though Migrante opted not to participate on 2007 party-list elections to devote its time and efforts in consolidating its chapters abroad and in the Philippines.
“We are looking forward, though we are sure that we fulfilled the Party-list system Act requirements, that the COMELEC will give a nod on our application for accreditation so that we could participate in the May 2013 party-list elections and eventually render genuine OFWs representation in the Philippine Congress,” Monterona adding that their group has always been in the service of OFWs and their dependents, with or without elections.
