                    [Title] => Pabling endorses shift to parliamentary government
                    [Summary] => Former Cebu Governor Pablo Garcia would prefer a shift to parliamentary form of government because under this system leaders are elected on the basis of qualifications and track record in public service rather than on popularity.


Under the present system, candidates who are popular because of media have better chances of winning due to name recall.

"The reality is that those qualified to be elected are being sidelined by showbiz personalities," Garcia said.

Garcia cited the easy victory of Senators Ramon "Bong" Revilla Jr., Lito Lapid, and Jinggoy Estrada.
