Senators dispel ‘coup’ rumors
Sunday, December 18, 2011
MANILA — Senator Edgardo Angara, a former senate president himself, said a reported coup in the Senate leadership will serve nobody, and especially not Malacañang.
In a radio interview over dzBB, Angara said it will not help Malacañang to appear to try to “hold the Senate by the nose”. The Palace has already been scored after supporting an impeachment complaint against Chief Justice Renato Corona, whom the President has been criticizing in his speeches.
Corona, in a gathering of supporters in front of the Supreme Court last week, said his impeachment—signed by more than half of the House of Representatives in one day–was an attempt by the executive to take control of the entire government.
Angara said, however, that the coup plot mentioned by Senate President Pro Tempore Jose Ejercito Estrada Thursday evening may just be a rumor that has been taken seriously. “I don’t believe there is one. JPE (Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile) has been managing the Senate well,” he said.
He added that even if the rumor is true, he will not join it, saying such a move will just serve to divide the Senate.
Also on Sunday, Estrada said there have been no actual moves to unseat Enrile but that he was only addressing “persistent rumors” that come up each time the Senate goes on a legislative break. Estrada said that he only wanted to reassure Enrile that should he be unseated as Senate president, he would also give up his position as Senate President Pro Tempore, or second in command.
He said that it would be impossible to change the Senate leadership as the Senate prepares for the impeachment trial, both because Enrile has the numbers and also because it would mean a reorganization of the Senate, which will take up a lot of time.
He added Malacañang would not dare to try to control the upper house. “I don’t think they would be that narrow minded,” he said, adding such a move would make the Palace, and senators who support a coup, look bad.
On Thursday evening, Estrada said moves to remove Enrile as presiding officer of the Senate “will not succeed.”
Under the Senate rules, the Senate president is elected by a majority vote of all members. Enrile has repeatedly said he will readily give up his position if it is shown he no longer has the support of the majority.
“My position as a Senate President was given to me by my peers in the Senate. I did not ask for it. If they want to replace me, tell me. As a matter of responsibility, I cannot abandon the job but once they show me a list of 13 names I will vacate the position,” he said Thursday evening.
Enrile has been Senate President since November 2008 when Senator Manuel Villar Jr. lost the support of the Senate majority over allegations that Villar had doubled budget insertions for the C-5 road extension project through the cities of Parañaque and Las Piñas.(Jonathan de Santos/Sunnex)
