The document discusses three attempts to amend the 1987 Philippine Constitution. The 1987 Constitution outlines three methods for amendment: Constituent Assembly, Constitutional Convention, and People's Initiative. The first attempt in 1995 saw a draft constitution by Jose Almonte that was exposed in the media and failed to pass. In 1997, the group PIRMA tried to gather signatures for a People's Initiative amendment but the Supreme Court ruled it needed an enabling law first.
