Historically, Philippine jurisprudence has always been "general" on its outset. It is in the succeeding IRR's that ensue that specifics are fleshed out.
IMHO, that mechanism allows the prevailing administration (and political climate) the leeway to interpret and implement the law as they find suitable for their agenda. That very same mechanism also allows for stakeholders (huyst! That includes you and me!) To wangle in their opinions, voices, sentiments prior to its embodiment into those IRR's. Were it so that we had ample representation sans vested interests ... Tsk, unfortunately we are all either too busy honing our craft or too busy making hay ... I can remember those "camelot" days of the philippine BBS community and the nascent internet industry. Unfortunately the knights of old have retired to the empires they've built. Before us now is the dawn of our country`s coming of age on getting is data act together. You can choose to sit in the sidelines and watch it unfold into another strip in the doghouse diaries... Hint, hint, hint ...
