Share TweetBy Genalyn KabilingMalacañang is confident that the plebiscite on the Bangsamoro Organic Law (BOL) would push through as scheduled despite the reenacted budget for the first quarter of the year. “The upcoming plebiscite on the Bangsamoro law, however, will not be affected as the budget for this was already included in the 2018 budget,” Panelo said in a statement. The Commission on Elections (COMELEC) earlier announced the ratification of the Bangsamoro law would be conducted in two separate days. The reenacted budget and its impact on government programs were discussed during the Cabinet meeting convened by President Duterte in the Malacanang on Monday.
