Atty Topacio, Chairman of Citizens crime watch and former speaker Pantaleon Alvarez have filed criminal cases vs. House Speaker Martin Romualdez involving insertion and falsification of  public documents.   Who is diverting whose attention?           

Senator lectures a cop on confidential funds

It is more fun criticizing

He says a cop knows this.  The payment for the assets in intelligence gathering have to be protected.  Hence their identities must be kept secret (The leftists are keen in knowing  who they are) That is why we have Mary Grace Piattos and other fictitious names.   

Those not in the know my mistake this as graft and make this as ground for impeachment.   

Thus asking PSA to verify this is pointless and does not make the confidential funds confidential.   Marcoleta,  fmer COA commissioner Rowena Guanzon, the Ombudsman have made this clear.

The DBM CoA joint memorandum does not require receipts and liquidation via closed envelope and reviewed by a Director. 

Ombudsman Martires no action vs VP Sarah

It is more fun criticizing

He sees no action vs VP Sarah Duterte.   He advised Usec Andres to shut up and said that his office can alone stop VP.   It is within the power of the Ombudsman to take over the VPs investigation.  

We also do not agree that VP Sarah can only be impeached and then only can be charged criminally afterwards when she has lost her immunity.   

VP Sarah has probably found a white knight in Martires whom his father appointed as Ombudsman

Can we eliminate corruption at the LGUs?

The good President want to end corruption in the country.  But can he really do it?  Especially at the LGUs.  He cant do it at BOC right in the heart of MM, very near Malacanang. How about corruption in 1,500 cities and municipalities scattered across the country.

Examples:

In the past:

1.  In Region 1V, our under the table arrangement to get SB resolution involved:

     a.  For a 4 hectare  project in island province -  P1 million.  It was surprising  that the hatchet man
          was a graduate of MPA from a Jesuit run school of good govt.

    b.  For a 7 hectare project, we gave out P3,000,000 to SB and the mayor.  The Barangay Council and chairman took a P300,000 grease money

    c.  For a 3 hectare project near MM, we gave P1 m to the mayor, donation of 100 units apartment which he used to strengthen his hold on the urban poor, plus P300,000 worth of filling materials for a road project (which was not funded)

2.  For now:

   a.  An alteration of plans payola that was being charged us was P40.00/sm of a 16 hectare project or P6.4 million

  b. A five hectare project in NL (Region 1) would involve cheap  arrangement P500,000 only

How did we escape other grease money arrangement in other areas:   we had the chief  of the LGU be one of our stockholders (properly dummied of course)

How can you stop this?   No we cant.   I my books I do not like this form of dishonesty.   But if you dont, it will take you years before you get your permits and resolution.  Years back, my uncle who was with DAR told me not to come across people in his office who ask for P15.00 /sm facilitation money for conversion.  I did I followed him and our conversion came out 8 years later.

 You simply book this as CGS and you can wait for your permit. Considering the high cost of political patronage and of the election campaign, one may view this as a win win situation.  Walang sumbungan.

Telcos routinely cough up P300,000 for locational clearance of towers.

How about foreign business who allege to be Mr. Clean (eh  corrupt din sa ibang bansa:  USA, Japan, Europe etc)  Dapat on the level tayo.

Can we remove corruption at the LGU?

 SOP at the LGUs by Maganes

So we think as some solons think, we ought to abolish BOC to remove corruption. Ano abolish na rin LGUs?
Any Pres in his right mind will not antogonize LGUs now, the grass roots, or else, they will not win.

Fmr Senator Aquilino Pimentel, the author the LG code, ano po say nila?

From ABS CBN news

Ombudsman Conchita Morales Carpio, in a speech before the homecoming of UP College of law said that she is appalled by the indifference of people to historical revisionism and leaders who let this happen.

This may be the personal opinion of the good ombudsman but she and her office are insuperable.  It now has exposed her political views and her partiality which may cloud her judgment and her position entrusted to an office that should be be viewed and observing fairness,  impartiality and objectivity

Officers of the judiciary are selected on their wisdom and on  the above.

What is the role of the ombudsman?  From Ombudsman\ web.  Has the ombudsman crossed the limits of her job responsibility and authority

Can her office investigate  the OP prior to impeachment?    Ombudsman to continueinvestigating Sen Trillanes compalint vs Pree Duterte for plunder Can her office be investigated by other bodies unless she is impeached.

May 2 tayong panggulo sa pamahalaan and sooner of later they will not know what hit them.  T and D

From Philstar

Ombudsman Morales has ordered the Senate President Koko Pimentel to dismiss elected Senator Joel Villanueva over alleged scandal of P10 million in PDAF.  Sen Joel has appealed to the Ombudsman.

Meanwhile, Sen Franklin Drilon that the power of the Ombdudsman to dismiss govt officials does not apply to Senators and Congressmen (Hence Sens. Jinggoy, JPE, and Revilla were not dismissed despite their incarceration.
