MANILA STANDARD - JURADO - I believe that the stakes involved in the impeachment trial of Corona are over and above us all, President Aquino included. It is our republican system of government on trial here. We know that the Executive, Legislative and the Judiciary must be independence and co-equal. The attempt of the President to subjugate the Supreme Court is not only against chief justice. It is an attempt to make the entire judicial system do his bidding. For us who see things in a wider and proper perspective, and understand the stakes involved, the Corona impeachment is nothing but an attempt to savage the rule of law and the Constitution
