The height of treachery

MEMBERS of Congress, and I'm referring to both houses, are expected to craft laws which would best best serve the interest of the people. Unfortunately, however, a group of lawmakers who were responsible for the enactment of Republic Act 11659 not only betrayed the very people they have vowed to serve, but have even exposed all of us to security threats.

Last week, at a media forum, two prominent lawyers, Larry Gadon and Ferdie Topacio, assailed RA 11659, also known as the "Public Service Act," saying it was not only unconstitutional but also poses a threat to the country's economy and security.
