Efforts to improve the political finance system in the Philippines would require the concerted efforts of reformers inside and outside the government. There is a policy vacuum concerning rules on donor campaign contribution limits, public subsidy for political parties, donor identify disclosure, and stringent monitoring and auditing systems. Policies to improve transparency and accountability in the political finance system are intrinsic to the fight for reform. However, it is just RIGHTS‐BASED PHILIPPINE GOVERNANCE as important to ensure that institutional mechanisms are in place to REVIEW 2005 implement existing and future reform efforts.

Shift from Presidential to Parliamentary Government and Reform the Party System and Electoral System. This will prevent the gridlock and buck‐passing that we often experience in the presidential system, as you very well know, and make it relatively easier to change the head of government when necessary. It will also induce, with the help of proportional representation in a genuine party list system, the development of strong, program‐oriented and accountable political parties, which are now nonexistent. Parliamentary government will reduce the astronomical cost of presidential elections, which is corrupting and compromising for the elected president. It will help prevent the election of celebrities whose popularity and talents are extraneous to the tough qualifications of national political and executive leadership demanded of a head of government and prime initiator of policy and legislation. Moreover, parliamentary government Citizen's Movement for a Federal ensures the timely and orderly change of the top leadership in government and thus promotes political stability. ‐ Citizen's Movement Philippines (CMFP) Constitutional for a Federal Philippines (CMFP) Rerforms
