PRESS STATEMENT ON ABALOS' RESIGNATION:

The decision of Chairman Abalos to resign from his position is commendable. Dapat lamang na hindi madamay ang kredibilidad at integridad ng Comelec at ng darating na halalang-pambarangay sa mga hinaharap niyang akusasyon.

Ngayon, makakapagpatuloy ang imbestigasyon ng Senado hinggil sa ZTE deal na hindi makakaladkad ang Comelec bilang isang institusyon.

I am hoping that we can hold Chairman Abalos to his word that he will see this controversy to its end and that his resignation is not act of evasion.

If the chairman felt that he was slighted during the senate investigation, I am sure that it was not the intention. It was only imperative that the hearings be conducted the way it was conducted, to reach the truth behind the allegations.
