In this regard, constitutional provisions and guarantees were reiterated through the amendments of constitutions to (a) legally permit opposition political parties to exist; (b) establish independent national electoral commissions to organize free, fair and impartial elections both at the national and local levels; and set clear terms of presidential mandate and (c) guarantee freedom of the press.	cache/american_scientific_journal-719.pdf	txt/american_scientific_journal-719.txt
