What is the logic behind this ruling that prevents any development project during eleksyon?

Question

i think it's a complete waste of time. 45 days freeze before and after eleksyon for infrastructure project at all level is simply ridiculous. Why do they spend more time cheating people and give false hope during campaign than actually work on development of the country?

I think Filipino spend too much time politicking rather than actually deliver what have been promised during eleksyon. Just look at more developed neighbour singapore and malaysia. they dont have this kind of ridiculous rule. Infrastructure project keeps going on and on. why is that happen to our country?

I'm not against people who wants to run for position during eleksyon but we must start to take politics more seriously. it's not time for us to gain short-lived publicity. Be more aware and realistic. If u cant pay your own family to live well how can you become representative of people who voted for you (iraqi hostage who wants to contest)

And for Film and boxing star. They are no different.

Answer 1

It's primarily to prevent any disbursement of public funds intended for a development project that could just be diverted to the election campaign of corrupt officials.

Come to think of it, if our government was really sincere about pursuing develpment projects, they could have done so all year round, every year. It's not like we have elections every year any way. Election period should be a time for the Filipinos to evaluate what the government has done over the past years, not a time for government projects to suddenly start sprouting.

Answer 2

it is really baloney and pathetic. even before the implementation of that so called "45 day freeze", the filipinos have already been used to half bridges, unfinished highways, sand and gravel along their way because no one has bothered to continue with the project or worst, the budget has already been pocketed by a certain politician. so whether or not, this bothers us. no not at all. it was as always expected.

Answer 3

no, incumbent official during election will try to gain some mielage campaigning in the guise of public service and good goverment in approving all development project but in truth, they are trying to cover up all their grafts or unexplained wealth espcially when they lose the election, dur to these so called projects. but in truth all these project are not finished even after the election period, and they are all favor for the dynasty rule in politics.
