De Venecian plot for Villar
Surprise Surprise! Juan Ponce Enrile replaced Manuel Villar as Senate President. Enrile used to be an opposition stalwart and now he is with the Administration. Political butterflies are always on the scene of Philippines politics.
I am hoping that this is not Palace’s step to clear the way for Charter Change for PGMA’s term extension. Let us watch the Senate as the new set of leaders start anew. Let it be a Senate of the people and not a Senate of people. 2010 is just around the corner. Many will use the Senate as a stepping stone for a higher office.
