Makati Business Club rejects snap elections proposal

The Makati Business Club (MBC) rejected Senator Alan Peter Cayetano's proposal for officials to resign en masse and trigger snap elections, advocating instead for systemic reforms and institutional strengthening.

MBC believes that changing leaders alone will not bring lasting improvements to governance.

The club highlighted the public's demand for transparency, accountability, and justice, citing the ongoing flood control controversy and a potential Senate leadership shake-up.

Instead of snap elections, MBC called for legislative action on key reforms such as the Anti-Dynasty Law, amendments to the bank secrecy law, and the freedom of information bill.

MBC also noted that some reforms can be implemented administratively.
