THE LEGAL FRONT

 Trust, the tie that binds
BY ATTY. ARTURO D. BRION, LL.B., LL.M.

Trust is the “firm belief in the reliability, truth, ability, or strength of someone or of something.” In this sense, it is the basic foundation of our representative democracy which operates on the strength of trust: People entrust their care and welfare to periodically chosen representatives who promulgate and implement the laws that our society needs. These representatives are our senators and congressmen – the members of the legislative branch who pass our laws, and the president and vice president of the executive branch, who implement these laws.

VOTERS' PLEDGE

I am a Responsible and Principled Citizen.

I will educate myself and others about the issues at hand so that my vote is a meaningful and relevant exercise of my right of suffrage.

I pledge to vote for candidates who will abide by the duly constituted rules on campaigning because I understand that those who refuse to obey the law in the little things are not likely to obey the law in the more important things;

I pledge to vote for candidates who, by word and action, renounce violence, coercion, vote-buying, and corruption as means for getting elected;

I pledge to vote for the candidates who listen to their constituents and are responsive to the needs and aspirations of those they seek to represent;

I pledge to vote as my conscience dictates in all elections.

I make these promises freely and upon my honor.

(This Voter Pledge was read at the Unity Walk of 13 January 2013, by COMELEC Commissioner Elias R. Yusoph)
