i think its time for the philippine government to lessen the government official like for now, we have 24 senators, i think we should reduce it to 12, so many congressmen and representatives, i think its over 200 why reduce them into 50-100 representatives instead,the councilors are 7, its okay, as well as brgy captain and kagawad but the sk official, i think during campaign, they should have a teenager representative to go on position of 1 place for kagawad i think it should be removed as i've observe in some places here in philippines. specially to the sk officials...they don't/can't do anything but to wait for their salary! i think its a waste of money just to pay for the officials that don't do their work while comfortably sitting in their office or hanging out in malls or parties, i believe that most of our kababayan's are multitasked persons no wonder, the work of 10 officials can be done by one person only! we pay very high priced taxes so we have the right to make sure that our officials have done a great job without any hesitations to their job, beside they choose to serve people by bringing them selves involved in government.

I will oppose you on this one. I believe all groups should be represented in congress and in the senate. For me it is not about the numbers it is about how honest and how open this individuals we vote in this government positions. As long as all this individuals are not corrupt all the money spent for their salaries is worth it.
