Beyond elections: Let’s unite behind the newly elected leaders
Regardless of the outcome, the important task of rebuilding the economy from the ravages of a crippling pandemic continues. This task could be done best amid political stability — an ideal scenario that is attainable through the conduct of peaceful, orderly and honest elections. Since the present Constitution was enacted in 1987, the nation has witnessed five peaceful transitions in the presidency — longer than at any time in the country’s history. The shift to automated elections has minimized disruptive transitions; we could only hope and pray that this trend continues today.
