hopeless_race : Lets not just focus sa mga malversation of funds, sa mga overpricing..ating pagtuunan ng atensyon ang diskarte ng mga politiko na umuutang ng bilyon bilyon sa gobyerno."Small time" ang ibang pamamaraan ng pangungurakot kumpara sa pag-utang sa gobyerno ng bilyon na tunay ngang masasabing "pinaka big-time" at wala pang sabit.
hopeless_race : Mukhang tikom ang bibig ng lahat pagdating sa diskarte ng mga politiko sa pagutang ng mga bilyon bilyon sa gobyerno na tinatakbuhan. Itong pamamaraan na ito ang tunay na kumakain ng malaking porsyento ng ating national budget batay na din sa sinasabi ng world bank.
hopeless_race : Pakisilip naman po ang mga utang ni Villar sa BSP, ang mga utang nila RAMON JACINTO, RONNIE ZAMORA, JOE DE VENECIA at madami pang ibang mga pulitiko. Iilan lamang yan sa mga nababanggit sa balita na may mga malalaking utang sa gobyerno.
hopeless_race : Nagmimistulang "small time" lamang ang malversation of funds kumpara sa laki ng kinakamal ng mga umuutang sa gobyerno. At ito ay malinaw na natatakbuhan dahil hindi nga naman pwede makulong ang may-ari ng kumpanya sa pagkaka-utang lamang. Tunay na mga tuso at magagaling sa batas itong mga politiko natin. Masasabi ko na malamang lahat ng mga politiko ganito ang diskarte...wala pang kulong.
hopeless_race : PCIJ pkitingnan naman po ang mga gaya ni Villar na my malaking utang sa Gobyerno pero tinatakbuhan. Magtatayo ng kumpanya at uutang ng bilyon bilyon sa gobyerno ng walang balak bayaran. Tunay ngang walang nakukulong sa utang...ito ang prinsipyo ginagamit ng mga politiko ntin kaya nakakapagtaka kung san napupunta ang daang bilyong pera ng gobyerno.
hopeless_race : Sana itreat naman po ng media ang hacienda luisita at mendiola massacre na parang MAGUINADANAO MASSACRE. Ipublicized ang mga katotohanan at ipakita sa tao ang karumaldumal na pinaggagawa sa mga farmers dun. Untouchable po ba sila cory at danding at hindi magawang batikusin ng media about these two massacres?
hopeless_race : Kapag napaguusapan ang mendiola at hacienda luisita massacre ay parang walang nangyari at parang hindi big deal. Anu po ba ang pinagkaiba ng dalawang nabanggit na massacre sa maguindanao massacre?
hopeless_race : Its sad that we pinoys are blind to the fact of what had happened in mendiola and hacienda luisita. Ang tanong..bakit ang media ay hindi manlang matackle ang ganitong usapin? Takot ba sila kay cory at danding?

guest_3664 : i would be glad if u can include the investigation of the manner public officials announce infra projects as per COA regulation. It is frustrating to see their faces on the tarpaulin instead of the prescribed information like name of project, date of implementation,amount of contract, source/s of fund, among other things. This is very rampant here in Marikina. Thanks and more power on your noble endeavors. We need people like you to have make our country great again.

Watching and waiting

Filed under: Arroyo Impeachment, In the News

ALL eyes are on Vice President Noli de Castro, with talk going around that he is considering distancing himself from President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo whose fate is now being decided by the House of Representatives.

De Castro remains mum, "closely watching" the impeachment proceedings, say his staff. What kept him busy today were the affairs of the housing sector, more specifically the concerns of the Housing and Urban Development Coordinating Council which he chairs.

De Castro, however, has also been listening to his advisers, the so-called Wednesday group composed of his former Senate buddies Joker Arroyo, Manny Villar, Ralph Recto and Francis Pangilinan. One piece of advice the group reportedly offered de Castro was that he was supposed to be "serving the country and not the president."

Whether that would mean eventually breaking away from the administration is something that only the next few days will tell. While things continue to simmer at the House of Representatives, de Castro is continually gathering information and weighing his options. The vice president is expected to issue a statement within the week.

Five years ago, the statements and actions of another vice president were closely watched by the public. Then Vice President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, after hemming and hawing for months, finally broke away from the administration of then President Joseph Estrada, providing the anti-Estrada movement a way out of the crisis. Whether de Castro will do the same remains a mystery.

In an interview with newsmen last Saturday, he was asked whether he had anything to do with the Black & White movement, a grouping which included resigned cabinet members who are leading efforts to impeach President Arroyo.

De Castro denied having anything to that with Black-and-White. He would only say that he was on the side of the "white" which meant sticking by the side of honesty and purity.

how can he speak ? he has first hand knowledge of the counting activities
since he was the running mate of a cheater. His silence dictates
a seemingly lack of confidence to what he wishes to stand for knowing
na he is there because of the massive cheating during the 2004 elections.
At the back of his mind, he knows that his current position is in itself
not right kaya tuloy natatameme. Dalawa lang yan, either kakapalan
mo lang ang mukha mo or tatahimik ka lang. If he decides to break away,
that will be an outright admittance of an arroyo-de castro cheating.
Sabi nga sa tape, gma: ‘dapat hindi magalaw yun nasa itaas’
Sino ba nasa taas ? Eh d silang dalawa. :p

Personally, I am still hoping that Vice-President de Castro did not have a hand in the alleged election fraud which happened during the last presidential elections. Hopefully, he will indeed serve the people rather than the president.
