The Center for People Empowerment in Governance (CenPEG) has sounded the alarm on a critical issue threatening the very foundation of Philippine democracy: the blatant manipulation of the party-list system.

This hijacking must be stopped, and decisive action is needed to restore the system to its original intent.
