WHY not just continue the road project in Boom Boom’s
village?
As governor, it does not make sense to continue or push
through with the project only if Boom Boom won the fight or became a world champion. The problem with the governor of Bohol is he only wanted to share a ride on the front page.
Kung talagang dapat ayusin ang kalsada, bakit hindi gawin. Bakit idadaan pa sa laban ni Boom Boom?
Poor Boom Boom, he absorbed all the pain. Siya ngayon ang sisisihin ng mga kabarangay niya dahil hindi magawa-gawa ang kalsada sa lugar nila. Hopefully Boom Boom will become a world champion before the governor of Bohol needs him for the next election.

REACTION TO COMMENTS OF JHAY-R PIGUERO PERMITO:
Well, in fairness to your comments about our main topic here. Thanks heaven Its nice to hear about some govt project completed in Bohol during the tenure of Governor Aumentado and you said “ngayon lang naging ganito ka-sikat ang Bohol”. Well and good and maybe for you Boholano to wait those years for the projects to complete from 1990 to 2007. Makupad pa kayo sa magaling na pagong you only started to move on 1990 and GOD please dont allow them to stop moving this year 2007. Evidence of stopping is already seen as what our main issue here after SCRAPPING OF THE ROAD PROJECT IN BOOM BOOM B. VILLAGE AFTER HE LOST HIS BOUT IN THE RING. AND REMEMBER WHATEVER THE NAMES OF THE BARANGAY OR BARANGAY ROAD WAS- IT HAS NOTHING TO DO FOR THE ARTICLE WHICH YOU DOUBTED TO BE DEFECTIVE. PLEASE TRY TO PUSH YOUR BOHOL GOVT LEADERS TO MOVE BETTER AND FASTER AND DO NOT TRY TO COVER THEIR BUTTS UP OF THEIR BLUNDERS. I AM PROUD TO BE A FILIPINO AND THANK YOU LORD, FOR NOT MAKING ME A BOHOLANO.

Gov. Aumentado, you are a disgrace to the Boholano people. You are the best epitome of a TRAPO.
Even if Boom lost that certain fight im sure he did his best to put up a good fight. Tapos ikaw ibabase mo lang sa pagkapanalo nya kung ipapaayos mo ang dapat ipaayos sa lugar nila.

I also shared the same sentiments with the most of filipinos reading the article about Boom-boom’s loss of road project. I may be as frustrated as most of you guys if i do not know Gov Aumentado. a lot of credits were already earned by the honorable governor for the just completed “bohol circumferencial road project”. Kung napansin nyo, ngayon lang naging ganito ka-sikat ang Bohol and it may not happen kung hindi dahil kay Gobernador Aumentado. Gaano nyo ba kadalas narinig ang Bohol noong 1990’s - siguro chocolate hills lang ang alam mo sa Bohol noon.
Duda ko, the article might be defective. First, there’s no such barangay as Canuling. Ang ibig sigurong sabihin ng writer ay “Can-olin” and if that would be the case, ang kalsada na tinutukoy ng writer ay maaring ang kalsada that connected Guio-ang to Cogtong road passing through barangay Can-olin. This is where Boom-boom used to jog going to my beloved barangay Guio-ang. Kung may mga taong masisiyahan sa pagsicemento sa kalsada na yan - isa na ako dyan.
For all the developments including road improvements na ginawa ni Gov Aumentado sa mga nakaraang mga taon, it is not possible that he already have the fund to get the project started. But, i think Gov Aumentado wants to share the credit of this project to Boom-boom. Sooner kung magiging champion na si Boom-boom, aalis na sya sa Can-olin at lilipat sa lugar na kung saan pwede nyang namnamin ang kanyang kayamanan bilang world champion. in fact, i heard na under construction na ang ang bahay nila sa Tagbilaran City. Kung mangyayari yan, isn’t that great na maalala namin ang hirap at karangalan ni boom-boom para makuha ang world championship belt at ang road project sa tuwing nakikita namin ang kalsada? Yes, napakaganda po kung macemento na ang kalsada na ito. and I personally believe that it will happen too soon. dahil tulad ng mga tao sa lugar namin, i believe that the failure of boom-boom in the hands of de leon was just temporary and GREAT SUCCESS is coming too soon. Kung hindi naniniwala si Gov na maging champion pa si Boom-boom, pwede nya ng pa-umpisahan ang project na to anytime. But, i personally want it to become the “world boxing champion’s road”. That’s why, like boom-boom we are willing to sacrifice a little time waiting for that road.

BOXING CAREER OF BOOM BOOM IS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE OBLIGATION OF THE GOVERNOR. THE GOVERNOR SHOULD UNDERSTAND THAT HE WAS ELECTED BY THE PEOPLE OF BOHOL TO SERVE THEM. HE IS A PUBLIC SERVANT, HE MUST DO HIS JOB WITHOUT ANY CONDITIONS. WHEN THE GOVERNOR WON THE ELECTION, THE PEOPLE OF BOHOL IS COUNTING ON HIM, HE SHOULD PROVIDE WHAT IS BEST FOR THE PEOPLE OF BOHOL. THE GOVERNOR SHOULD REMEMBER THAT HIS SALARY CAME FROM THE PEOPLE OF BOHOL, NOT FROM THE RESULT OF THE BOXING MATCH OF BOOM BOOM. AND EVEN IF BOOM BOOM LOSS THE MATCH HE(BOOM BOOM) STILL RECEIVED WHAT IS DUE TO HIM.
