The House of Representatives has included in its website (www.congress.gov.ph) a link where constituents can directly send their comments/letters and other concerns to their respective representatives through electronic mail.
I am presently working in the HOR as a legislative staff of one of the representatives. We routinely check the email account of our principal, but we have not received a single message from constituents.
I’m wondering if the problem is lack of access to the internet, or maybe people are just not interested in sending messages to their solons.
I think this initiative of providing a webmail system in the HOR is a big improvement. This will be helpful not only in facilitating communication, but also in increasing transparency in the HOR.
