29  What are some of the negative features our political culture?

Negatively, Philippine politics is often described as basically "patronage politics",  "a politics of personalities" and a "politics of pay-off." PCP-II summarily described our politics in the following way: "Power and control are also elitist, lopsidedly concentrated on established families that tend to perpetuate themselves in political dynasties" (PCP-II, 24).
