ELECT SENATORS BY DISTICT AND CREATION OF FEDERAL REGIONS and it is hereby quoted

A Proposed Peoples Initiative as a Constitutional

AMENDMENT ONE TO THE PHILIPPINE CONSTITUTION
(Re: Election By Regional Senatorial Representation in Congress
And Creation of Federal Regions To Function Administratively to Build Infrastructures)
PREAMBLE
ONE: WHEREAS, The election at large of Senators in the senate who come from a few and
privileged segments of metropolitan society have caused a gross imbalance and underdevelopment
or absence of economic progress in outside regions from said societies;
TWO: WHEREAS, This senatorial imbalance in Congress has resulted in the failure of
exploiting the rich potential opportunities of the natural resources in the outlaying regions of the
country;
THREE: WHEREAS, This senatorial imbalance of representation in Congress has further

created an undue migration and concentration of the people in cities and towns arising from the
neglect of commercial and industrial development in their rural areas of the country;
FOUR: WHEREAS, If the senators who are born, reside and elected from the undeveloped
cities and towns of the districts they represent, it is expected that they will have more natural and
inherent interest to take care of their localities and shall be able to demand politically their fair share
in the budgeting of public funds to underwrite the expenditures for their local projects and further
create employment opportunities for the people in their districts. The further beneficial effect on this
will be less traffic congestions of over saturated cities and towns and shall thereby enhance and fully
activate the flow of commerce in rural areas;
FIVE: WHEREAS, The Senatorial representation for rural localities, specially for the Muslim
Regions, can contribute to the enhancement of unity and better friendly understanding between and
among the different ethnic group in their local communities; and
SIX: WHEREAS, The Senatorial Districts can likewise serve as Federal Regions to function
administratively in building infrastructures in their respective territories,
NOW, THEREFORE,
THE PEOPLE OF THE PHILIPPINES hereby propose and approve this Initiative

2. The entire Philippines consists of ____ provinces and ____ cities. They are comprised
of _____ legislative districts and said legislative districts are tabulated sequentially by provinces then
followed also sequentially by cities in alphabetical order under which each legislative district is listed
in this Petition. All the signatures of registered voters in said legislative districts have been gathered
and correspondingly verified and duly certified to by the Local Election Registrars of each Provinces
and Cities. The Certificates of Verification are herewith attached and made part of this petition. The
signature sheets of the petitioners are being kept in the custody of the Local Election Registrars in
support of their respective Certificates of Verification and said signature sheets are ready for
inspection or production if so desired by this Honorable Commission in the respective Local Election
Registrars Office around the country. Petitioners think that it would not be practical to bring in and
attach all signature sheets to this Petition because it would entail truck loads of papers for exhibits
in the office of this Honorable Commission. Therefore, presentation of the Certificates of Verification,
akin to the Certificate of Canvass in counting of electoral votes, is the most practical means in
determining the sufficiency of signatures to support this petition.
3. The pattern of tabulation and listing of collected signatures are as follows:

Name of Province or City, or Combined Province and City
Column Captions thereunder:
Column 1 = Legislative District Name or Number
Column 2 = Total Registered Voters Per District
Column 3 = Total Signers of Registered Voters Per District
Column 4 = Per Cent (%) of Registered Voters Signing Petition Per District
NOTE: Each row or line in Column 4 is at least 3% or more and the overall total
of the signers in each Province or City is at least 12% or more. For provinces and
cities with one (or lone) district, we go for a 12% straight because there is no other
legislative district which a 3% of signatures can be taken from. The 3% per
barangay or per municipality rule does not apply here because this initiative is not
a local initiative. It is an initiative for a CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT.
Be sure to account the total legislative districts accurately when reflected in
paragraph 2 above. Secure first the information from COMELEC about the total
legislative districts before finalizing and filing of this petition.
