STAND ON CHARTER CHANGE ISSUE:
Trillanes has urged the public to keep "vigilant" and not let the constituent assembly effort at the House of Representatives "trample upon" their right to vote.
Trillanes also warned the administration and its allies that their attempts to rewrite the 1987 Constitution were bound to fail since he was "confident that the people would unite against it."
Trillanes, who acted as spokesman for the mutineers that had identified themselves as members of the Magdalo group, said he decided to run since he could no longer "helplessly watch the incessant rape of our people's dignity and our country's wealth."
"I believe the elections are the only peaceful avenue left for the Filipinos to effect change in leadership of this country," he said.
On efforts by pro-administration congressmen to rush amendments to the Constitution via a constituent assembly, Trillanes said: "I am therefore calling on the people to be vigilant in the coming days to ensure that our right to choose our own leaders is not trampled upon."
"The problem is not in the system [of government]. The problem is the people running the system," he added.
Trillanes said pro-administration lawmakers were bold enough to skirt their own rules and convene as a constituent assembly, thinking that Filipinos had grown "apathetic."
