1984 Philippine constitutional plebiscite

National and local plebiscites for the approval of the proposed constitutional amendments and local bills made by the Interim Batasang Pambansa were held on January 27, 1984, in the Philippines.

The majority of the Filipino people voted "Yes" to the terms and constitutional amendments. But several opposition politicians, like José W. Diokno and Lorenzo M. Tañada, called for a boycott. Below are the constitutional amendments as a result of the plebiscite:

Creating the Office of the Vice President of the Philippines
Abolishing the Executive Committee
Elections for the regular members of the Batasang Pambansa by provinces, highly urbanized cities, and districts of Metro Manila
