Rep. Chua: Divorce allows for grounds subsequent to marriage, unlike annulment | ANC 

divorce plz kawawa naman kami ng hihintay ng kalayaan😊

I agree for divorce annulment is too expensive

Bakit kayo natatakot sa devorce?Ok nga yan para sa pamilya na may bogbugan na.Nang magpakasal ako sa Germany alam ko may devorce pero hindi ako natakot now 19 years na kami ng asawa ko ok pa kami

Everyone deserves to be happy

Annulment in a stupid corruption!!!!

Yes to divorce. Sino po ba ang ayaw ng complete and happy family? Pero may mga sitwasyon talaga na need mo ang option ng divorce.

Only selfish, ignorant and those that have a complete lack of empathy are against divorce.

Yes to the Divorce Bill , annulment is the ridiculous route !

Ipasa na po yan para din sa mga taong ayaw magkasala sa panginoon at sa batas na hiwalay na at di makipag relasyon o mapakasalan dahil sa batas ng tao at dyos kasal parin sila.

Its a big yes to divorce.

Yes to divorce ...

Halos lahat ng comment, pabor sa divorce makinig naman kayo sa taong bayan🙏🙏🙏

It's just that many Filipinos are close minded. Kung ok ang marriage mo, hindi para sa yo ang divorce. Kung intolerable na ang sitwasyon ng mag asawa, better to separate rather the couple killing each other.

Yes to divorce, for those suffering

Ako nga 5 years na ang annulment ko hanga ngayon di pa rin tapos .yes to divorce bill

How do couples separated for ten years can go forward without legal process which is affordable.

Legalize divorce now!!?!!?

Tama lang May divorce kc kawawa kaming 22 yrs na hiwalay na hindi pa free

For me po tapos na ang panahon ng kastila ngayon. Mayroon na pong separation of church and state sa ating bansa.

Many people family suffering like me 34 years we been separated

This is my case .my husband left me for.almost 7 years now,after just one fight.iniwan Niya ako.its unfair in my side dahil Hindi Ako divorce I endure to be alone,no kids dahil takot Ako one day na balikan Ako Asawa na may iBang kasama.now I'm living alone stress at lagi nag self pity.i went to Pao for advice at Ang advice ganyan talaga unless may proof ka na may babae Asawa mo.ni Hindi ko nga Nakita at ayaw magpakita.paanu?

Buti pa yung congressman well verse sa dynamics ng divorce law as compared to annulment and legal separation Eh yung senador, ano sagot? Di ako pabor kasi masaya pamilya ko, yung isa nman padaliin na lng daw annulment law parang di lawyer eh.. yung isa nman against religion daw. Hahha puro self serving.

Ako walang balak mag pa divorce, pero yes na yes sa divorce kasi dami kong kakilala nag dudusa kasi walang divorce sa Pinas,,maawa naman kayo. Philippines na lang walang divorce,Why????

We fight for freedom and avoid selfishness

Separation of Church and State...

Thank you! This is good news.

Yess to divorce palayin nyo na kami

Yes to devorce

SP Chiz just dont want divorce bill passed.. para syang di lawyer... annulment needs ground to nullify o pawalang bisa ang kasal... vs divorce... anak ng tinapa Atty Chiz.. anu ba gusto mo magyari sa mga di na pwedeng magsama... bakit annulment? wala kaba sa wisyo?

This is very educational. Thanks heaps Karen for doing this.

Yes to Divorce. Married for 14 years but became just a friend in the house that started in 2022. She said she doesn't love me anymore 😭😭😭.She doesn't allow me to touch nor hug her. I'm working like a robot and sleep in my room alone but we live in the same house.

Not destrying the family but giving a second chance to those who are already broken

PLEASE YES TO DIVORCE BILLS..

Kudos to Cong Chua! He explained the distinctions very well. I think hindi na gets ni Ms Karen yung prior to the marriage ang ground for psych incapacity and not subsequent.

YES TO DIVORCE! DONT IMPOSE YOUR WILL ON OTHERS JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE CATHOLIC. TAYO NALANG AT VATICAN WALANG DIVORCE SA BUONG MUNDO. ANO KAYO MGA SANTO? MGA IPOKRITO GIVE US THE OPTION TO CHOOSE! YES TO DIVORCE!

Galing mo jan miss karen, yes everyone's deserve's happy becuase life is too short

Yes to divorce because i am myself divorced with my Husband in his Country and we are still married in the Philippines under the Law.

BAKIT KASI PURO NALANG BABAE EH PANO NAMAN KAMING MGA LALAKI NA NILOKO DIN? Isama nyo naman kami sa sample din di lang puro babae na niloko hehehe

Hopefully ma grant ang bill na eto

Ito ang representative na napakalalim magsalita tungkol sa DIVORCE.Divorce is a form of relief that gives a second change..Mas nakakarami ang may gusto kaysa sa ayaw sa divorce.pero hindi mandatory.Family is a form of LOVE,JOY & PROTECTION..(quotes accdg.to him)..

Yes, to Divorce.

This can be abused po lalo na kung yung foreigner wanted to divorce the Filipino magiging madali na sa foreigner to leave the Filipino

"Lack of option is a cause of poverty" ...Cong Joel Chua I agree. No choice to be divorced impoverish the partner victim of the marriage.

Sir napakatotohan ng sinasabi mo sana ma approve NA po ang devorce lalo na po samin n mga kababaihan na inaabuso.

If it manifested after, then the ground for annulment is psychological immaturity.

9 years separated and please yes to divorce please

Divorce will be the downfall of the Philippines..

YES TO DIVORCE BILL. PLEASE PASS THE BILL.

Mas Mabuti na po ng "Magkaroon na Ang Ating Bansang Pilipinas ng Batas na Divorce" para mas maging maayus Ang Pag Hihiwalay ng Mga di na mag "Kasundo mag Asawa"! at dito sa Japan Wala ng mga Hearing Hearing at Wala ring Bayad! kaya sa atin Maraming Mambabatas Ang Against sa Divorce, kasi "Pinag kaka Perahan Ng Ating Gobyerno! Dahil Ang Laki-laki ng Sinisingil Pag Nag Pa Mag Pa Prosesso ka...

Wala na po bang update na balita about sa divorce bill sa pinas kung kelan po maisasabatas para makalaya naman po kami sa nakaraang delubyo at magkaroon nman ng katahimikan sa buhay.

Ayaw ng Divorce pero mistress at live in pwede.

Families in the Philippines were already destroyed due to spouses separating, regardless of no divorce law in the country, marami pa ring hiwalay, illegal nga lang dahil ayaw sang-ayunan ng batas, pero yun kawalan ng batas sa divorce, hindi rin nakatulong to keep the family together. Kaya maglagay na lang ng divorce, para magkaroon naman ng chance yung iilan na nagkamali. Lumalabas ang option ng anullment, pang-mayaman lang. So, kung mahirap ka, wala kang karapatan maghiwalay.

Yes to divorce bill

Yes for divorce though am a catholic. So many concrete reasons why divorce is favorable.

para palang kung nung pinakasalan ka mayaman ka pero nung naghirap na divorce na , so human convinience talaga ang divorce whahahaha

Yes to devorce 🙏🙏🙏🙏😢

Yes to divorce and 15 years hiwalay walang support sa dalawang anak q since bata pa cla until now inabandona

Yes to divorce 5yeard ng hiwalay may ibang kinsakasama na ex husband ko.sana ma aprobahan na❤

Devorce bill is a freedom for women

Mas prehistoric ang mind set natin kaysa sa Ireland.

Please ipasa nyo ang divorce para makalaya na kami sa Asawa namin ng nang lalaki

Mam Karen pls invite Cong. ABANTE OF THE 3RD DISTRIC OF MANILA

Maam paano po sa akin noon inaaboso Pô ako.pwede Pô ako ako mag file ng devorse

How. About adultery?shouldnt people be punished? So far very few. How about financial protection for thr SPO use? Can The family ESP wife be entitled to financial Help?

Yes to divorce🙏🙏🙏

Yes to divorce

Mas kawawa ang mga anak kung nakikita nila na palaging nag aaway ang mga magulang nila halos magpatayan na

I agree for divorce

Kahit ilibre niyo ang annulment mas madugo parin yan kesa sa absolute divorce. Sa annulment mag uungkatan kayo ng baho sa korte dahil need niyo ng proof na may problema kayo from the very start ng marriage. In short magsisiraan kayo para lang mapaniwala ang korte. So magsisiraan kayo kung ano mga pagkatao niyo before marriage

Karen, I thought you are reading bible everyday? We should have deeper understanding about Jesus and his teaching po

So better the divorce kasi Ang complicated nang annulment and daming klasi at Ang hirap pa ayy Ang mga attorney na pera2x lng Ang galaw.iinsultohin kapa kung bakit Ng pakasal tas mag hihiwalay nakaka truma

#YesToDivorce

Then change manifestation to predisposition in the grounds for annulment. This is much better than changing the nature of marriage itself. A irate partner has a predisposition for violence, a promiscuous partner for adultery, a gender affirming partner for transgenderism. After all, it is also the argument for pro-divorce for stable and God-fearing individuals to have the monopoly of good marriages.

Then it will take 4-5 years??? yes Sir Chua

There's a proverb in Italy: "People who brag & talk too much don't do it" it suites PH politicians R. Duterte "I will reimpose the death penalty" PBBM "Rice will be P20 a kilo"

Kayo mag anti divorce wag kayo selfish! Sabihin nyo nga samin kng wala kayo ka pamilya, friends , cousins na hindi hiwalay! Kng happy family kayo hndi sainyo ang divorce! natatakot kayo may divorce baka hiwalayan kayo ng asawa nyo 😂 eh di mag asawa din kayo ulit😂

If this bill is pass, i will divorce my wife so i can re-marry her again.

Yes gostong gosto q ng divorce

If may divorce na can you file a case against your wife or husband if nag cheat or derecho divorce na? What if un isa lang sa couple ang may gusto mg divorce dhl lang may nahanap nang iba?

Yes to divorce.Be open minded.Dint be hypocrites

Big yes sa divorce maraming nagdurasang mga babae.

atat na atat na halatang hindi na makahintay na maipasa ang batas. kapag naging batas na ang divorce sigurado mag u una unahan ang mga paborito kong panoorin.😁😁

Ang gulooo! Do away with Legal Separation and Annulment once Absolute Divorce Law to do away with duplication or redundancy. Pampagulo lng yng more than option to dissolve a marriage.

“Everyone deserves to be happy… tingnan po niya ang mas nakararami.” So ibig sabihin mas marami ang hindi masaya sa Pinas kaya dapat may divorce. I pose these questions: Is this about happiness, or an erosion of values system? Are we as a nation ready to accept we’re just like any other country

Annulment ay pra sa mayaman ....pakinggin nyo Ang daing Ng mga tao...

Wag mag base sa isang religion kasi d nman lahat ng tao na andito sa pinas is catholic.Pano nman ung iba ang religion ibig ba sabihin baliwala na? Kaya wag isali ang religion sa mga usapin like dto sa issue about divorce.ang isipin nio ung mga kababayan na nkakulong sa relasyon na dna dapat. Hayaan malaya, maging masaya at mabuhay ng walang bangungot sa buhay.

Ano nmn po ung KASO sa mag asawa,na sinced PRENANCY nung babae ay umalus na ung lalaki (in short tinalukuran ang responsibilidad nya as a husband and father)

Yes to divorce, para po legal din pagsasama at happy pa, kaysa po makipag relasyon ka sa bawal , pano po kung 30 years ka ng hiwalay sa asawa di padin po ba papayagan na magkaroon ng divorce dito sa pilipinas at pilipinas nalang po pala ang walang divorce, sobrang kawawa po talaga ang mga hiwalay na matagal na , para din pong naka kulong sa lungkot dahil hindi po malaya 🙏🙏🙏

Pwede bang grounds of annulment ang attitude ng partner -- halimbawa: sobrang tamad, puro pagse-cellphone ang ginagawa maghapon, etc. --- in short walang silbi at proud pa sya..

Pro divorce

There was divorce in Moses n Jesus time.

Wla na pla kami kalayaan mging masaya ulit kc annulment subrang higpit ng grounds kainis

Sa, biblia pinahintolotan ang divorce basahin niyo sa, sirach 26 :25. At si, cristo mismo hindi tutol sa divorce. Ang divorce ay hindi absolute or totally not allowed. Mayrong exeption na pwede ang divorce tulad ng sexual immorality or fornication basa, mateo 19:9

hindi pala sila magiging masaya kapag hindi sila nakapag asawa uli. ang buhay pala nila ay naka sentro lng sa sarili nilang kaligayahan at bahala na ang mga bata na maaapektuhan. si karen hindi man lng tinalakay yung kapakanan ng mga bata na maaapektuhan.

Give people the options of freedom to choose... thats all you job... onlycin the philippines!!!!

“Im Happy for my Marriage at ang Saya ng Pamilya ko “ si Senator Vil_r ba yan? 😂😅

Such hypocrisy. Spain, Italy and Poland are all Catholic countries... and they have divorce. Pilipinas na lang wala sa buong mundo. Make it available. Make it a viable choice for couples na gusto mag divorce. Choice na nila if they want it or not. And make it affordable as well. In the US there is divorce but because of alimony and hefty cost madami pa din ang ayaw magdivorce but at least it is there as an option. Yes to divorce... and an affordable no red tape divorce. There should be automatic divorce for those abusive spouses. And then for those na ang reason is they are no longer happy nagkasawaan na grant one year separation first and then after a year na wala na talaga pag-asa na isave yung marriage saka sila maqualify mag apply for divorce and processing should be 6 months to max one year to give them another time to reconsider until an absolute divorce is granted. Anyways, they can just get married again hahhhaa in case after divorce e narealize nila mahal pala talaga nila isa't isa may toyo lang silang dalawa. And kung Church ang issue madaming kasal sa huwes lang bakit pati sila idadamay? Di sila nagcommit sa altar dun sa 'ang pinagbuklod ng dyos ay di na maaring paghiwalayin ng sinuman' blah blah...

A Window for other foreigners to become a Filipino Citezen easssy eaassy when u have a plenty of money....

Kaya wag mag pa kasal.

State and church should be separated. As much as religion overlaps with morality, morality is not religion. Church is necessary to provide a space for people to exercise their right for spiritual practices. State is there to establish order and security to achieve a civilized society. The Rule of Law promotes access to justice and human rights FOR ALL (not just a particular religious practice). After all, we have to remember, we are not in heaven where we are all pure and not a sinner. We are all human beings not gods. We are bound to make mistakes and miscalculations. We are all students of life. What we can do is provide free will. Like how a god provides free will to his creation and does not force everyone to follow him. Divorce is a form of free will that can provide justice for scenarios that are not covered in annulment. Perhaps, a great accompaniment is a strongly enforced adultery law. Thus, safeguarding human behaviors to NOT abuse divorce as a way out for misconduct.
