The proposed change from the Republican to a Federal form of government
in the Republic of the Philippines is a " MUST " to ensure the immediate
access to investment of the NORTHERN PHILIPPINES specially the countryside all throughout the state.
Those who are against Federalism are misguided by businessmen in the capital city Manila,because they are against the movement of the capital
or investment from only ONE area to the rest of the neglected poorer countryside.
