Broadcaster former Cong Ted Failon notes challenges on the Vendors Party List in a televised videotaped interview with Vendor's Party List:
1. The No 1 nominee is not merely a vendor, while she maintains that she buys and sells garments and construction material
\
2. She is the President of Olymputs Construction and Mining company, which has dealing with DPWH totalling almost P200 million and thus not strictly representing small vendors only.
3. The thrid nominee is also an owner of hardware and construction company, not a small time vendor.
4. They do not know personally Diwata, the No. 4 nominee and was not nominated in a convention specifically called for such nomination.
The interviewee/resource person appears to have conveniently forgotten the name of Olympus, the transaction with DPWH, the amount, and the business of the nominees (just like other resource persons)
A fake party list and should be disallowed.? Another case of abuse, "bstardization" of party list?
