Kickbacks and Bribes: Where’s Ours?
While the Rizal governor and the Montalban mayor are completing their "kickback story" on landfill and solid waste management, Pampanga governor Fr. Ed Panlilio blew the whistle when he presented the P500 thousand money from Malacanang in cold cash. At first Panlilio said it was not a bribe money. But "heller," rarely does the government deliver bucks in cold cash and without any acknowledgment receipt! Well of course, Fr. Panlilio is a neophyte politician so probably he mistook the so-called "cash gift" as a donation for the church. So, taking a leap from Panlilio’s whistle-blowing, we could ask: Bakit may mga ganun? And why in cold cash? Hmmnnn…If this is the way transactions are being done under the Arroyo government, we can now believe the rumors…
Hey wait! Where’s ours? =P
