STUDENT COUNCIL ALLIANCE OF THE PHILIPPINES

#34-D Matulungin St., Brgy. Central, Quezon City Philippines 1100 All over the country to change it! STUDENTS REVEAL CORONA TRUST RATINGS ISO Conference Room 1-2, Ateneo de Manila University March 26 2012 I. TO THE PUBLIC: Below are the results of several surveys conducted by the Student Council Alliance of the Philippines [SCAP], the largest student council and student political party formation in the country present in more than 150 campuses and 30 chapters nationwide. The surveys were in partnership with local organizations, such as the Ateneo Statistics Circle and the UP Paralegal Society, within the concerned college/ university. The surveys aimed to: gauge the the interest and satisfaction of the students concerning the impeachment trial of Chief Justice Renato Corona; appraise the trust level Corona has among students; and get their pulse whether they think Corona should continue to stay as Chief Justice or not. The results of the survey do not aim to represent the stand of the institutions and the organizations involved. Although we provided the template of the survey, partner organizations had a hand in modifying the survey questions according to their interest, which was the case in most schools we surveyed. - SCAP +63917-362-7480 scap.neb@gmail.com II.

What is your message to the Senator-Judges as they try the case? (optional) BE FAIR Be fair and just. Do not let "partiality" cloud your judgement. You were voted by us to lead and not to have greed. Try the case according to due processs and evidence based on reasonable doubt. Also, refrain from injecting politics Please make the right decision! Always think of the best way that could help empower our country! I do hope that they will judge fairly and impartially. I do hope that they won't give in to bribes and political pressure. This trial should be seen as a step towards truth and not towards a more politically skewed government and judiciary. If CJ Corona is guilty because of the evidences then clearly state those evidences, if he isn't then at the least clear the CJ Corona's name. It's justice and fairness that we want not political entertainment. CORONA

#34-D Matulungin St., Brgy. Central, Quezon City Philippines 1100 All over the country to change it! it's funny how they waste so much time in a case that shows the most obvious solution. it's only the fact the Corona has the money and resources to prolong the case to make him safe. Corona is obviously guilty. The public is watching and can attest to that. TAKE THE STAND Take the stand and prove to them that you really have not done anything wrong as a chief justice in the supreme court. The longer you wait without taking the stand, the more guilty you become in the public's eyes.

#34-D Matulungin St., Brgy. Central, Quezon City Philippines 1100 All over the country to change it! be fair, Filipinos deserves justice! TRUTH AND CORONA The Truth will set you free Mr.Corona! kung may natitirang repseto and pagmaamhal ka pa sa mga magulang mo, pamilya mo, sa bayan at sa sarili mo, please ayusin mo na ito! please impeach Corona. there is no longer any value nor any good purpose for retaining him in position. STOP THE DELAY They should focus less on the petty details and try to speed up the process. They are delaying it so much! Make the DECISION as SOON as POSSIBLE! we do not have all the time to decide it slowly...there are MORE problems that needs to be attended! HEAR the CRIES of the PEOPLE! III. ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Of the five schools that the survey was conducted, four demonstrated strong distrust of Corona. On the other hand, 41% of ADMU do not trust Corona. However, 39% were still undecided while only 21% trust him. Majority of the students of the five schools also expressed that Corona is not fit to remain in his current position. As such, it is safe to say that Corona is suffering from a serious lack of trust and credibility from the students surveyed or those who have an opinion on the matter. Also, majority of students don't think he should remain as chief justice. However, as the ADMU survey has demonstrated, a substantial percentage of students are still undecided or have yet to form an opinion about the issue. This should serve as a challenge to Corona to come clean. We reiterate our call to the Chief Justice to open his dollar accounts, take a leave of absence and testify before the impeachment court. We believe if he will continue to avoid acting on these demands or continue to hide behind legal technicalities; those that are undecided will eventually shift to the anti-Corona camp. This could be a potential "game changer." IV. CONTACT PERSON: Gibby B. Gorres +63917-362-7480 scap.neb@gmail.com National Secretary-General
