Parties And Dynasties In The Philippines

On today's Pressing Matters, Philip See speaks to Jean Encinas-Franco, Professor in the Department of Political Science, College of Social Sciences and Philosophy, University of the Philippines as we get her perspective on the dynamics of politics in the Philippines and the ongoing feud taking place between President Marcos Bong Bong Junior and his predecessor Rodrigo Duterte. We ask her how is it that political families and dynasties are much more powerful than political parties
