THE people behind the renewed movement for a revolutionary government have no love for country and people. It is an unnecessary distraction amid a health pandemic that the administration has not been able to competently handle.

Pushing it is not only untimely, but also bad for politics, business, the economy and the country as whole. The Philippines will be in a situation far worse than how it has been in the past few months because transitioning to a revolutionary government will only foment political unrest and economic dislocation.
