It's one way to serve the community being a citizen ....  ;D

but others ... istorbo laeng... 

Would you go if called or get away from it !  ???

et depens  ;D

Given the maturity of the general population of the Philippines, I'm so glad we don't have a jury system here. Like can you imagine Erap (and all other movie actors) getting convicted of any crime if we did?

not only that but because of the low wages... the jurors will be tempted to accept bribes.

Jury system i think not effective in the Phil setting

agree ! agree!!! you're just a thousand. kuna dan tupay.

The Jury System is a unique feature of other countries criminal justice system, the US in particular. Of course, not everybody can be selected to become  a member of the jury. They are normally selected from among the responsible members of the community and if they accept are allowed adequate renumerations. I will consider it a privilege to sit as a jury member and be given a chance to render judicial service to the country. They are under the supervision of the judge so no problem of any possible hanky panky and by the nature of its composition it very hard to collude and render unjust decision. If we have to amend our constitution, this is one area worth considering to reduce if not eliminate judicial corruption.
