LUSOT na sa pinal at pangatlong pagbasa sa Senado ang panukalang batas na naglalayong ipagpaliban ang February 21 Sangguniang Kabataan elections.
Batay sa panukala, gagawin na lamang ang halalan sa SK sa Oktubre 2016 kasabay ng barangay elections.
“Elections can wait. Both chambers are working overtime to put reforms in place. Holding the SK elections without these reforms will render all efforts made by legislators useless,” ani Senator Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos, Jr., siyang sponsor at chairman ng Senate Committe on Local Government.
Ani Marcos, ang pagsuspinde ng halalan ay daan upang mapag-ibayo ang reporma na ipatutupad sa SK.
“The Sangguniang Kabataan must first be reformed and restructured in order to effectively represent the needs and concerns of the youth sector. We need to prepare the significant legislation that would institute meaningful, timely and viable reforms in the SK,” wika ni Marcos.
