No-el in the BARMM
The Philippine Star|November 05, 2024
One of the tenets of democracy is the regular reaffirmation or change of leadership, through free and popular elections.

The people render their verdict on officials' performance through the power of the vote.

Having tasted elective office, however, too many politicians want to hold on to the post longer than what is allowed by law, if possible forever. This inevitably draws resentment from those who are expecting elections on a specific date and are intending to challenge the incumbent officials. Frustrating this expectation can lead to violence that in this country often turns deadly.
