KELLY will take her side on whether Villar or Lacson is right about the double-entry national budget insertion..
by: Racquel C. Cunanan
It will be very easy to prove accusations if effectual evidences are right in accuser's hands.
This is exactly transpiring in the senate. Sen. Panfilo Lacson against Sen. President Manny Villar.
It all started when Sen. Lacson spoke before the senate that he may file a case against Sen. Villar over allegations of impropriety on the issue involving the double insertion for the c5 road project.
Having the evidences, Sen. Lacson's assertions can be said to be concrete and strong. Between the two, i strongly believe Sen. Lacson.
There is a stirring "conflict of interest" since, to think of it, a big amount of commission can be obtained in this road project.
- Senator Juan Ponce Enrile and the General Appropriations Act of 2008.
- Double entry of 200-million fund in the GAA of 2008.
- Sen. Pia Cayetano mulls being against her brother Sen. Allan Peter Cayetano.
- Sen. pres. manny Villar: incompetent.
- Involving the 2010 Presidential Elections
Sen. Lacson requested Sen. Juan Ponce Enrile, the current Chairman of the Finance Committee, to verify the alleged convention between him and Sen. Villar over the P200-million double insertion. He became involved since the P200-million are inserted twice in the General Appropriations Act (where private properties will be taken for public use) over two different titles.
Sen. Enrile confirmed the allegations to be true and said that Sen. Villar even specified the amount of P200-million.
With the incessant accusations, Sen. Villar never stayed voiceless and denied the allegations. According to him, the double entry will be going to the construction of a flyover in Sucat and the other one at Quirino Avenue and Coastal Road. He refuted Lacson's assertions and said that those are all political-motivated as 2010 Presidential Elections is approaching.
Lacson, still very consistent, is supported by Sen. Pia Cayetano, the Chairperson of the Ethics Committee, though being a sister of Sen. Villar's loyal ally, Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano.
The double-insertion is a usual practice in the upper chamber of the bicameral, said Sen. Alan Cayetano, and reiterated again that Lacson might have just did these all because of his interests for the 2010 Presidential Elections.
Lacson is still doing his best, besides being called the "whistleblower" of the alleged entry, and still attested that he may bring the case to the Ombudsman being him as the direct "complainant".
The "whistleblower" also notified the incompetency of Sen. Villar as the Senate President, for the reason of Villar's frequent absences in the Seanate Plenary. "Personally, he should be replaced." said Lacson.
But with this, Lacson added that the only focus will be on the double-insertion, knowing that this issue of INCOMPETENCY is not for the Senate Coup.
