    I am not against RH bill, and I am not pro abortion, it’s just I want to teach people lesson on giving birth among children whom they can’t support and will be like others begging on the streets and in the end be one of the government dependents.

Cory imbued to our present president today and will do what is good for our country with due respect and transparency to all Filipino…

    Since RH BILL is heard here in the Philippines, many thoughts have entered people’s mind, what is it for? Obviously it is for population control. The Bill focuses principally on the social welfare of the people. More importantly, through this, population will be controlled. Population is admittedly one of the many causes of our poverty since the government had difficulty in addressing the needs of its people. RH Bill assures the availability and access to a full range of methods, techniques, supplies and services that contribute to reproductive and sexual health and well-being. With these, our number will become manageable and eventually, our country will be in progress. We can prevent abortion and post abortion complications will be managed. We can free ourselves from sexually transmitted diseases and more importantly the education and counseling on sexuality and sexual reproductive health will be disseminated by the different government agencies.…

    The latest version of the RH Bill2 does not refer to any specific problem related to demography. It does not mention at all the typical justification of population-control-to-eradicate-poverty. This version3 refers to reproductive health per se. The Philippines, according to this Bill, needs a law on reproductive health. By implication, it says that the Philippines does not have any law that addresses the reproductive health needs, an implication that is incorrect since there are already laws that address many of the provisions of the Bill.4…

    This particular Law is a vital factor for the complete employment of the Philippine government’s widespread health care policy, which aims to reduce deaths due to pregnancy or giving birth, and improve overall reproductive health of the Filipinos. According to the United Nations Population Fund (2009), and the Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (2012), “More mothers die from childbirth due to the poor implementation of modern family planning methods, bad public health service, and more.” The revolutionary RH Law, as proclaimed by Albay Representative Edcel Lagman, the principal author of the Bill, will not have immediate results. It is said that even with much work and plenty of funds, for the free contraceptives, the Law’s results may approximately initiate after five years. Even the authors of the Bill, now a Law, sadly announced that the RH Law is not perfect; much improvement and revision is still taking place. With the implementation of this Law, the government hopes to see great changes, especially on our public and reproductive health. As it was mentioned before, these changes include the improved access to information, facilities and services, increased stability and sustainability of health policy across national and local government. Hopefully, with their…

    The RH bill would cause much higher prices of commodities and health care products in the Philippines because of the fact that businesses and hospitals would be compelled to offset the RH care expenses that they are going to pay for their workers. This bill is not good for everybody, as it would create a wave of economic regulations and controls. This might also cause the government to issue price controls and other regulatory edicts so to prevent companies and even hospitals from raising the prices of their products and services!…
