The Philippines is one of two countries in the world that does not allow divorce for married couples. However, on June 10, 2024, the Philippine House of Representatives sent House Bill No. 9349 – or the Approved Absolute Divorce Bill – to the Senate.
What are the consequences of this bill? How will this impact Philippine society if it is passed into law?
In this episode, BusinessWorld discusses some of these possibilities with Jemy I. Gatdula, the dean of the University of Asia and the Pacific’s Institute of Law.
