‘Epalitikos’ should have no place in this year’s ‘Traslacion’ – Comelec, EcoWaste Coalition 0 SHARES Share it! Premature campaigning is wrong and well-meaning politicians should not engage in it,” said Comelec spokesman Director James Jimenez. Traslacion is not the time to draw attention to yourselves,” added Daniel Alejandre, Zero Waste Campaigner, EcoWaste Coalition. The EcoWaste Coalition, a Quezon City based waste and pollution watch group, expressed fears that premature campaigning will only worsen the habitual littering that has tainted the annual re-enactment of the “Traslacion for many years’’. He added the political candidates should also support the deployment of volunteers along the processional route to help with the anti-littering drive and clean-up.
