SC: Stop disclosing CJ’s foreign accounts

Impeachment remains the ultimate check on the abuse of power. By providing this power to congress, the Framers drew on a long tradition of democratic skepticism about leaders. These provision ensure that leaders will serve the people only as long as they respect the law and their offices. We the citizen of this country will know if "Public office is a public trust" is true in the Constitution.

baguhin kasi ang CONSTITUTION or BATAS natin para sa banking industry ng pinas hindi yung puro reklamo pag sinusunod kung ano ang dapat..pero ang dahilan kaya HINDI mababago ang batas kasi halos lahat ng pulitiko ay apektado dahil madami din silang nakatagong yaman sa banko..syempre, SELF SERVING..maaring sila ang NAGTATANONG ngaun..pero, baka nga naman next time ay SILA NAMAN ANG TATANUNGIN.hahahahaha

Am getting pissed off with the way things are in this country. Am sad that these things are happening. I am a regular employee in the government who is trying so much to work for the good of our people, even going an extra mile, even beyond the call of duty just to help our countrymen. i love this country and i cannot imagine myself migrating in other countries. it bleeds my heart to see the top leaders are ravaging our country and us, the people of the resources which are supposed to be for us especially for our poor countrymen who needs help the most. reading this news is depressing. when leaders start to be selfish, the people will be shortchanged. i hope the government workers who can read my comment will not get tired of serving the public, no matter how small the salary, no matter how our leaders behaved. let us join hands and work for what is good for this country and for the people. God sees us all, may He will protect us everyday. Let us just be honest and carry on with our work. i think we are the only breed of filipinos whom our countrymen can rely on.

Dollar accounts deposited by aliens should be within the prohibition, But dollar accounts by Filipinos thru an impeachment court should be opened. So only few persons are within the realm of the law.

HIS SKIN COLOR ALONE SAYS A LOT COLOR OF AN ASS HOLE

yes you have the right to privacy but if you are innocent. why not show us how fat your bank accounts are?

BIRDS WITH THE SAME FEATHER SUPPORT EACH OTHER...

The world says, ONLY IN THE PHILIPPINES that wrongs doings are tolerated. It's now very sickening to even live in the country and mingle with these corrupt, erring, incompetent people who knows nothing except to steal. How can you now define righteousness versus wrong doings? No wonder why this country is way backward because the high officials in the SC are the ones who tolerate wrong doings & exhaust all the efforts to block tranparency. Good Lord, where is justice here? Associate Justices Teresita Leonardo De Castro, Arturo Brion, Roberto Abad, Jose Perez, Lucas Bersamin, Martin Villarama, Bienvenido Reyes and Jose Mendoza who all agreed to issue the TRO must now be the next to be impeached."the prosecution said they will consider filing an impeachment case against the eight justices who voted in favor of the TRO for meddling with the proceedings of Corona’s trial" - GO FOR IT for it's time that these MORONS would learn the lesson that rightteousness will prevail over wrong doings. This THIEF CORONA (highly infected by this corrupt Gloria Macapagal Arroyo who is currently in jail) is a LIAR, THIEF, CORRUPT, INCOMPETENT magistrate who does not have the right nor the privilege to hold such a high office. Where in the hell is TRANPARENCY now if this THIEF CORONA is allowed not to disclose the Foreign Currency Accounts he has now. Filipino people I call upon you to wake up & make your country more livable by getting rid & persecute all corrupt, erring, incompetent public officials so you will take the path of righteousness. Moises once said & I quote " let my people go so they will be out of bondage". The ordinary Filipino men, women & children are also now in bondage due to poverty, lack of opportunities (meaning OFWs are leaving this country just to be able to have a decent living) & as your President says, poverty can be eliminated if there is no corruption. He is absolutely right! There is still hope & perhaps a great salvation, if these corrupt public officials' embedded corrupt, selfish genes can be removed or altered either surgically or other possible means then only then the path of righteousness can be achieved.

As i know in the very beginning of my studies in elementary to college, that Supreme Court Justice is the Highest magistrate. CLEAR that there is WORD "JUSTICE". But the problem is, how could we claim justice when in if the CHIEF JUSTICE itself is deceiving the state. Let's set aside first the issues of other government officials we will just get back to them if the issue of CJ is done. CJ should refrain from blocking the impeachment proceedings, he should also give consent to PSBank to allow them to disclose his accounts if his not guilty. He should help and cooperate to the proceedings to clear his name instead of taking actions against the proceedings.

This is a wake up call to revise the constitution to allow disclosure of dollar accounts of FILIPINO citizens in impeachment proceedings, graft and corruption charges, and similar cases.

Well its time for us to stand as one.against these injustices.coruption will worsen if no one will punish.we are not born yesterday.convince everyone to figth.

The bank deposit of Mr. RCorona based on the testimony of PSBank and BPI representative;
PSBank - PHP 19.7 Million
BPI 12.0 Million, sum total PHP 31.7 Million
SALN is PHP 3.5 Million, now is the Chief Justice honest or dishonest?

Hindi ba nila pwedeng ikonsidera ng SC na special case ito? I mean, impeachment court ang nangangailangan ng ebidensya para makapagdesisyon sila kung may sala ang akusado, e kung hindi papayag ang SC, anong gagawin ng senator judges kapag magdedesisyon na sa article 3? titingin sa kisame?

Baka naman hindi lang sa facebook friend ni Corona yung ibang justices kaya pinaboran nila yung TRO? O baka rin may itinatago silang dollar account?

I do not understand why the empeachment court has ever allowed the supreme court to get into its way, in doing so, they have rendered the empeachment court inferior to the supreme court and there's no more stopping the SC from messing with the tribunal's independence. What a stupid thing these senator-jurors have done, they have betrayed the trust and confidence of our people.

SC is now the supreme protector of thieves, napakalinaw na kaya ayaw ng ipagpatuloy ni Corona ang impeachment proceedings ay tuloy tuloy na ang labas ng mga ebidensya tungkol sa kanyang pagsisinungaling, kung wala kang malaking US$ sa $ account mo pabuksan mo para magkaalaman na, binibitin mo ang katotohanan na syang dapat mong pangalagaan bilang CJ.

Demokrasya pero demokrasya lang para sa mga matataas na uri ng gobyerno? Hindi ba ito ang Demokrasya na para makamtan ang totoo at pagkakapantay ng tao? Ano ba ang meaning sa iyo ng demokrasya?

just as simple as its in lay man term... if you are honest person and nothing to hide why not allow them to see your dollar account but if you are hidden something and you don't want to be transparent then there is something to hide.. It's sad for our country to have this kind of person to head the Judicial Branch of the govt .. so how much more to lower court where corruption are rampant..I hope Chief Justice Corona will be impeach so it will be warming to all government officials not to do the same things.. and to all associate justice to vote for the TRO.. let them be try for impeachment too.

SC is not a defender of the constitution and protecting this nation from corrupt official...why are some people above the law? SC is setting a precedent here by letting Corona off the hook...Questions remained,where did all this money coming from?...Corona is tax evader...

In my opinion, this is very simple. There will be no argument, no violating of law, no filing of TRO, no delayed proceedings, no disbelief or mistrust against Corona if and only if he willingly let the impeachment court opens and examine all his bank accounts to show us that he is really sincere and honest in proving to us that he is innocent with the allegations accused to him.
