PiliPinas Debates 2022: The Turning Point or simply PiliPinas Debates 2022 is an upcoming televised debate series organized by the Commission on Elections (COMELEC), with the assistance of non-partisan voter education organization Vote Pilipinas[1][2] and the Kapisanan ng mga Brodkaster ng Pilipinas (KBP) as part of the debates for the 2022 Philippine presidential and vice presidential elections. Unlike the debates in the 2016 elections, three presidential debates and two vice presidential debates will be held.[1] The commission, under the law, cannot mandate candidates to join debates though the commission does expect candidates to attend debates that the commission themselves organize, as it presents them with massive exposure, and that it is not counted on the limits of the airtime that they are allowed to advertise on broadcast networks.[3]

Candidates will be following safety protocols stated by Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF); the first debate in the series will have no audience participation due to the risks of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic,[4] while the latter debates will feature both remote and in-person audiences.[5]

Background

On November 11, 2021, amid preparations for the 2022 elections, the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) confirmed that they will organize debates for both candidates running for president and vice-president by January 2022. Unlike the debates from 2016 where they let media organizations organize the official debates, the commission will organize the debates themselves. They earlier planned to hold seven debates: three debates each per position and a primary debate, as a teaser for the upcoming debates series.[6] By January 2022, the COMELEC said they might forego with the teaser debates, as the number of candidates have been reduced to a more manageable number.[7]

On March 7, 2022, the COMELEC signed a formal agreement with Vote Pilipinas, a non-partisan voter information group, to organize the debate series.[8][9][10] The commission shared the details of the debates after the signing.

Format

The commission stated that the debates will focus on the candidates' platforms and plans.[11] Each debate will have a set of predetermined topics, while the questions will come from sector groups.[8] While candidates will be informed of the topics to be addressed by the debates,[12] they will not be given questions in advance and are not allowed to bring notes. The first three debates will be moderated by one person and last for three hours. Candidates will draw lots to determine who will answer the first question, while the following questions will be answered in by candidates in alphabetical order. Each will be given one minute and a half to speak.[1][11][13] Following the three debates will be two more back-to-back debates, which will have two moderators and be held in a town hall format. These debates will also have a post-debate roundtable.[9]

The debates will be broadcast on different platforms simultaneously live including on YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, national television and national radio.
