SECRET BEHIND MAKABAYAN’S PRESIDENTIAL ENDORSEMENT, EXPOSED

Apparently, there is more to the new political party that was recently registered by Representatives Satur Ocampo, Liza Masa and Teddy Casiño at the Commission on Elections than meets the eye. This much was deciphered from a recovered document pertaining to the Makabayang Koalisyon ng Mamamayan or MAKABAYAN which the ten-page paper further revealed was originally slated to be called People’s Democratic Coalition.

According to said document the Makabayan, first conceptualized by the Communist Party of the Philippines on Sept. 15, 2008 and subsequently approved during a party meeting in Southern Tagalog on Dec. 21, 2008, was specifically created to fast track the Party’s plan of destroying the government from within. A quote from the document as seen below proves that they plan to implement this through the direct fielding of their own party list groups and senatorial aspirants to include supportive and allied political candidates from the congressional down to mayoralty posts.

Tayo habang binibra ang estado sa labas, dapat may kumikilos saloob para birahin at was akin ng sbayan ang estado.

Aside from fielding their own team of candidates in almost all levels, Makabayan has been conducting discreet dialogues with other political groups and known presidentiables to form a much-sought after alliance with them. It was discovered that a meeting of this sort already transpired between Representative Satur Ocampo and Senator Mar Roxas during which the militant solon offered the provision of two million command votes from the Makabayan ranks in exchange for five cabinet positions and several committee chairmanship in the Senate should said presidential wannabe be victorious in 2010. However, it was learned that the offer was categorically turned down by Senator Mar Roxas.

Not easily dodged by their failed meeting with Senator Roxas, Makabayan has now been making rounds among other presidentiables and has been offering the same bargaining agreement, over and over again. Their most likely target for now is the topnotcher of Pulse Asia’s recent survey of presidentiables, Senator Manny Villar.

MAR ABSTAINING FROM OCAMPO’S BARGAIN, A WISE DECISION

Sen. Mar Roxas’ refusal on Satur Ocampo’s 2 million guaranteed votes in exchange for five post-election positions and Senate chairmanship by the time Liberal Party bags the presidency by 2010 has been the wisest decision eager presidentiables made so far. Ocampo, who is under the Makabayang Koalisyon ng Mamamayan or MAKABAYAN, was said to be bargaining BAYAN Muna and its affiliate PLG’s votes in return for a fall-back once he, Masa and Casiño lose the senate seat. Other than Roxas, Sen. Manuel Villar and ex-Pres Erap Estrada may have also been given the same offer. Apart from such, is the formerly disclosed plan of MAKABAYAN to place one of its senatorial contenders on each Genuine Opposition (GO) led Parties that would be racing seats this coming 2010.

So far, MAKABAYAN had been courting one presidential contender to the next since April of this year starting with the Estradas. The 2 million voter’s ratio had been their sounding leverage in return for campaign resources and just recently their power-sharing ploy for 2010. The obligatory vote which would clearly be generated from MAKABAYAN linked PLGs such as BAYAN Muna is simply a bait out to get all presidentiables’ yeses. By the time either Villar or Estrada agrees to it, there is no telling if MAKABAYAN fulfills its end of the bargain. Besides, MAKABAYAN pledges to end TRAPOs stay in power and that counts Villar and Estrada. These 2 million voters could simply be narrowing-down its votes on all four MAKABAYAN senatoriables and not necessarily mark a ballot on either of these presidentiables. That way, MAKABAYAN would be nailing TRAPOs for good.

The good about getting all of this winnable presidential bets is being able to stay afloat once one of which reigns victorious. At this point, MAKABAYAN is not ignorant of the fact that none of the surveys mean something. The canvassing is too far off and it could be a whole new ball game right after the filing of candidacies. The political waters are far too murky at this point and MAKABAYAN is making sure that they remain afloat.

Other than that, Masa, Ocampo Casiño and Mariano would also enjoy the benefits of getting voters from its tapped Party’s electorate base. The 2 million would be a meager amount compared to what the Estradas or Roxas could eventually assure them. Funny, how other presidentiables salivate on the 2 million MAKABAYAN votes when it certainly could garner more and avoid getting entangled with a possible power-thug between Ocampo’s camps. Besides, in order to make room for MAKABAYAN these parties would have to set aside one of their own.

MAKABAYAN is doing whatever it takes to get all four in the upper arena. This huge and almost reckless effort should mean something more than just “public service”. Disturbingly, this may mean another state fiasco waiting to happen. To which, wide-spread militancy and even socialist dictatorship are both a possibility as MAKABAYAN welcomes the support of the Communist party of the Philippines (CPP) in their endeavor to change state order.

SATUR CLINGS TO GO FOR 2010 CABINET POSITIONS

Making a backup plan in every election turn-out was something Traditional Politicians (TRAPOs) do. This had been a fitting scenario whenever one politician wishes to cut his losses. Ordinarily, they would have to link-up with winning candidates in the hopes of getting post non-elective positions which by the way are also “influential”. Or else, sucking-up with this election top brass “before and after” the critical stages of the canvassing of votes.

This same line of post “electioneering” had been brought into play by Bayan Muna (BM) senatoriables- Satur Ocampo and Teddy Casiño. In early April of this year, the two who had vowed allegiance to the newly-surfaced political pool-Makabayang Koalisyon ng Mamamayan or (MAKABAYAN) were also extending links with former Pres. “Erap” Estrada’s Genuine Opposition (GO). Aside from Erap, Satur and Teddy are in close contacts with NP standard-bearer, Sen Manuel Villar and even that of Liberal Party presidentiable -Sen Mar Roxas. This had been BM’s allegiance roulette that not only stirred public scrutiny but of sounding reservations.

As planned, MAKABAYAN had bended its rule for Satur and others with the intents of securing political clout once the election end adversely on their cause. Thus, the need to please both GO candidates and even other presidentiables. Taking-up post election positions such as being a part of the presidential cabinet was MAKABAYAN’s end goal. This would be entirely different from their salivated senate chair, but still, it is capable of winning-out shared stewardship with the probable 2010 executive head. As such, Satur had pledge political “loyalty” here and there. Like how MAKABAYAN started-out extending its arms with Erap Estrada, who had been lauding his presidential ambition this coming election, another presidential hopeful by the name of Manny Villar had been courted by Satur. This and other dirty “antics” of MAKABAYAN is going way beyond cheap.

Infiltrating just about every political party existent this coming 2010 had been one goal of MAKABAYAN in its supposed fair share of cleaning the 2010 with partisan bull-outs and TRAPO influence. Does this make sense? Or better yet, MAKABAYAN is simply using TRAPOs with their cover of being a non-TRAPO adherent? Users or Losers?

CPP-NPA-NDF 2 Million Command Votes for Sale

Nakipagkita kamakailan si Bayan Muna Rep. Satur OCAMPO sa isang Presidentiable. Sa nasabing pagkikita ay inalok ni Satur ang nasabing Presidentiable ng 2 milyong boto. Ngunit, mariing tinanggihan ng nasabing Presidentiable na ngayo’y senador, ang alok ng malaman nito na ang kapalit ng 2 milyong boto ay ang pagbibigay ng apat na cabinet posts sa kaniyang administrasyon at chairmanship sa mga ilang committees sa senado kung ito ay manalo sa dadating na eleksyon sa 2010.

Ang meeting ay nagpapatunay lamang na isa-isa ng nilalapitan ng Makabayan ang mga kilalang presidentiables sa pamamagitan ni Satur Ocampo, Teddy Casiño, at Liza Masa bilang kanilang opisyal na mga negosyador.

Nagpapatunay sa isang natuklasang dokumento kung saan nakasaad ang criteria ng CPP sa pagbibigay ng endorsement sa mga nilapitan na presidentiables.

“Critical Support - pepwedeng magkaroon ng suporta sa isang presidentiable, pero ililinaw natin na hindi bulag na endorsement. May kasunduan tayo at posibleng i-critic kung di sya tutupad sa mga pangako nya. Nililinaw natin sa public ang kanyang mga posibleng kahinaan”

Ayon pa sa CPP document, kasama sa sinasabing criteria sa pagpili ng susuportahang Presidentiable ang mga sumusunod:

1. Plataporma na dapat ay pasok sa idelohiya ng CPP o di kaya ay hindi kokontra sa mga plano ng CPP;

2. Resources na lumalabas ay doble dahil iba yung hihingin para tustusan ang kampanya ng Makabayan at iba pa rin yung para sa movement.

3. Pangako na makapagbibigay ng post-elective positions sa magiging administrasyon sakaling manalo.

4. Kakayahang manalo ng presidentiable.

5. Maisama ang mga suportadong candidates sa local at national positions.

Ang pag-alok ng 2 milyong boto at ang hinihinging kapalit ni Ka Satur ay isang kongkretong ehemplo na nagbebenta ng boto ang Bayan Muna at ito ay dapat maimbestigahan ng COMELEC sa lalong madaling panahon.

Sa pagtanggi ng nasabing Senador ay maaaring hindi lang isa ang nilapitan ng grupo ni Satur para ialok ang nasabing 2 milyong boto.

Ang political strategy ng Makabayan na makiki alyansa sa lahat ng maaaaring makapitan upang masiguro ang kanilang posisyon sa darating na eleksyon kung sino man ang manalo. Kaya naman pati Si dating Pangulong Erap na noon ay kinasusuklaman din nila Satur ay ngayo’y kaanib na nila.

Alam nila Satur na ang isang appointed Cabinet Secretary ay may kapangyarihang mag-appoint ng kaniyang nagugustuhang undersecretaries at nagmimistulang hari ng kaniyang departamento.

Para sa mga Kasama,

Isang malugod at makabuluhang pagbati para sa mga kasama na nakapag paabot ng mga impormasyon at mga mahahalagang dokumento na magpapatunay ng mga buktot na gawain ng CPP-NPA-NDF. Upang ito ay maipaabot sa kaalaman ng ating mga kababayan.

MABUHAY!!!
