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.

Gloria is giving away taxpayer’s money ala Santa Claus to ensure her survival. She buys everybody not with her money but ours.
My tax paying sons will probably retire but none will have P500,000 as savings, never! We are under a curse from God, hence these leaders.
There’s no light at the end of the tunnel. God save the Philippines!
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Sorry, Pare! nothing can save the Philippines, Not even God. This is what happen when these elite hypocrites kick the duly elected President Joseph Estrada, And install Gloria Arroyo, In malacanyang palace because they were saying that she have a doctorate degree in economic. Ha, Ha. She turn out to be the biggest LEMON. The only thing she know how to do is lie to filipino people, and keep robbing the government coffer. This is the filipino people fault. So, Stop complaining, This is KARMA FOR WHAT YOU ALL DID TO PRESIDENT JOSEPH ESTRADA. KARMA AND MORE KARMA TO COME. AMER:

LPP officials (together with other self-serving politicians) are hounds of the administration. They bark whenever their master is in danger. These hounds are fed by their master from the moment of their birth (to the political world) and until this time when they’ve grown monstrously and horribly voracious of wealth and power.
The power and authority in the philippines are in the hands of the thieves. How did it become possible?? It can be traced from the way we hold our election. The comelec must once and for all be reformed for as experience would provide, election fraud is not only perpetrated by power-hungry candidates/politicians but also by profit-seeking comelec officials and employees. If only we can have trustworthy, independent and fair people in the comelec, the political, economic as well as social turmoil would gradually wane. It is more efficient to overhaul the single constitutionally mandated body that facilitates the conduct of installing “servants of the people” to positions than going after myriads of corrupt politicos (including corrupt LPP officials) who mostly got their positions through bribing leeches in the comelec. Should I say more???

Do we need to know everything what is happening and make a unnecessary comments?
Some call it bribery, but bribery for what? We know for a fact bad faith is the element to be called such. Bad faith or favor but favor for what?
Remember too that governors, mayors down to baranggay are under the DILG which is the alter ego of the president.
So, Malacanang assistance to this local government unit at their own disposal(local head) are but natural.
Remember too, that Father Ed the receiver/whistle blower of 500hundred thousand pesos is only 3 months in office and it is too early to judge him as the honest man.
It will be a long,long way to go and many more years for Father Ed to test his and his people’s honesty and integrity in running the affairs of his province and one act alone is not enough to make him a hero.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Jun: If father Ed, Is not honest person he never revail the money that has given to him. If his a crooks just like the rest of polutician who’s been receiving money he just keep the money for him self too. But, He didn’t. I salute Father Ed.

hayyyy..whats new? this gma regime is full of corruption but nothing happens to the investigation. that’s what you get if you have the money. there are times i think they dont care anymore if people finds out…garapalan na ..imagine many people are having a hard time working and paying taxes…sometimes nothing to eat but in malacanang they just give out 200,000-500,000 for every governor or congressman. tpos lumabas pa yung report na malacanang has a problem with COA over their unliquidated cash advances and donations. but im sure everything will disappear and forgotten just ike the other cases filed. impeachment? how can you impeach someone who has control over the congress? e sa dami nag attend sa malacanang ilan lang umamin na nabigyan sila ng pera.
sana sinabi na lang nila nagparaffle sila sa mga visitors na one of the goodie bags contains 0, 200,000 or 500,000 hahaha baka may maniwala pa
