New Philippines chief justice sworn in - GulfNews

"All of us should observe this rule of law. There's nobody who can excuse himself and say that he is not covered by the rule of law. The higher you are in the government the more you should respect the rule of law. The rule of law is the glue that unites our society. Without the rule of law, our society will disintegrate," Corona said.

Dean Marvic Leonen of the University of the Philippines College of Law supported Corona's call.

"My first unsolicited advice to you [Aquino]: Be the President of the Republic of the Philippines. The oath prescribed by the constitution is administered by [the chief justice] the head of an autonomous, co-equal department of government charged with the preservation of the words found in the Constitution of the Republic," he said.
