MBC Calls for Convening of Impeachment Court
09 June 2025 – The Makati Business Club calls upon the Senate to fulfill its constitutional duty to convene the impeachment court, and proceed with the impeachment trial of Vice-President Sara Duterte.
We view this issue as a governance issue and a test of public accountability and the rule of law.
If we do not follow the rule of law, how can we expect to attract foreign and even local investors to bring in long term investments, which would lead to the creation of jobs?
The impeachment trial is meant to present evidence to determine if the charges against the Vice President have basis or not. The Senators, individually, and the Senate, as an institution, will betray public trust and not provide the Vice President with the forum to refute charges if they do not proceed with the impeachment trial.
