THIS is a lame excuse.
First, the LPP (League of Provinces of the Philippines) does not have a resolution granting P500, 000 each to Pampanga and Bulacan governors. Second, LPP is hard up on funds. How can it prioritize giving to Pampanga and Bulacan, both rich provinces. This is stupidity. Third, how could you give away P500, 000 of the people’s money without receipts? This is irresponsible.
The LPP [members] say they were able to meet only yesterday since their national president just came back from abroad. How could the LPP have distributed the money two weeks ago without their president, which according to their constitution, is the final approving authority for the release of any fund?
Governor Panlilio immediately reported the issue to the media after receiving the money. Was the LPP president already out of the country?
I think this matter really should be pursued until the truth comes out. The people are tired of all the lies.

Why only now that you guys reacting too much like these kinds of old dirty political tatics? Eversince politicians are exercising these, even down to lower levels like the barangays are openly doing it. This issue is not new to us. Maybe we could just leave this issue to the people whom we trusted and voted to office. We hope that they’ll be truthfull , honest and open to their contingents that they are serving. That’s the game of politics. All of them are dirty. I don’t know any politicians these days that are clean and honest, even the ex- priest Panlillio for me is also not clean. We better describe him as his being an ex-priest and we can get a bunch of meanings on it just like an ex-convict, right?
