Abstract: Philippines, a democratic and a republican state, espouses on the basics of justice as per specified under the 1987 Constitution. In relation to the aforementioned statement, this expository paper revisits justice in light of the basics of the Bill of Rights (1987 Philippine Constitution: Article III). This framework serves as a guide for all citizens alike and for those who are in governance to observe the merits of law and its principles towards the achievement of justice that even if it could not be perfected in its reality, however, its approximation is near to the projected target of good governance, the aim of all states and entities in the world. This paper should not be construed to be perfect in nature, such that, any kind of suggestions will be helpful towards subsequent editions.
Key words: Philippines, Justice, Bill of Rights, Democracy, Constitution.
