Executive Secretary Eduardo Ermita and Press Secretary Ignacio Bunye said the administration is not wavering in its efforts to amend the Constitution through a constituent assembly wherein Congress would convene as one Charter-amending body.

"The buzz on the political grapevine is that the President will be removed from Malacañang by December. So it will be a make or break month. They will either be able to embed themselves in the Palace or kick Mrs. Arroyo out of the Palace," Santiago said.

Malacañang yesterday shot down deposed President Joseph Estrada’s call to replace President Arroyo with a "transition government," saying such a move would be illegal and unconstitutional.


Executive Secretary Eduardo Ermita and Press Secretary Ignacio Bunye said Estrada is ignoring the Constitution and virtually advocating a junta to replace Mrs. Arroyo and the government.


Both said the public had heard enough from Estrada and "the worn-out tune of his allies and supporters."

There is also no alternative government for the Filipino people but the government of President Arroyo, it added, in response to survey respondents who said that an extremely poor person would likely join groups attempting to overthrow the government.
