CSC: 40% of govt officials unqualified for posts

Update: Axe 15 excess aides, Ermita asks Gloria

From ABS-CBN online:

Malacañang: “Sweeping generalization a disservice to government employees”

Forty percent of 3,000 government officials, including Cabinet officials, are unqualified to hold their positions, the Civil Service Commission (CSC) bared Tuesday.

CSC chairwoman Karina David said these officials, consisting of managers, directors, assistant secretaries and undersecretaries, do not have the appropriate educational background and skills to perform their duties well.

“They don’t have the correct educational skills and appropriate background plus experience to perform their respective duties well,” David said.

The CSC study said many government departments and agencies have not complied with the limit on the number of assistant secretaries and undersecretaries, which should only be between four and six.

Among these government offices are the Department of Agrarian Reform, which has eight assistant secretaries and undersecretaries, and Department of National Defense with seven.

David added that the CSC is alarmed that more than 90 former military and police officials are now occupying key government positions. She said these officials are “not necessarily qualified.”

Most of these former military and police personnel are now with the Department of Transportation and Communications, Bureau of Immigration and the Mindanao State University (MSU).

“When politics gets in the way, the bureaucracy becomes unprofessional,” David said.

The transporation department is led by Secretary Leandro Mendoza, a graduate of the Philippine Military Academy and a former chief of the Philippine National Police.

Ricardo de Leon, a retired police official, is president of MSU while the immigration bureau is headed by Marcelino Libanan, a former congressman.

Malacañang officials on Wednesday slammed Karina David, outgoing Civil Service Commission (CSC) chairwoman, for remarks made before the Makati Business Club (MBC) against allegedly unqualified Cabinet officials serving under President Arroyo.

Press Secretary Ignacio Bunye branded David’s statements as sweeping generalization and a disservice to more than one million civil servants in the country.

“Her sweeping generalizations in a luncheon speech do a disservice to the over one million civil servants, both career and appointed, who work diligently each and every day to serve the people of the Philippines. Be that as it may, all presidential appointees must perform. If they don’t, they have to go, whatever their credentials may be,” Bunye said in a text message to ABS-CBN News.

Makati Business Club statement:

The recent downgrading of the country to Category 2 by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is a glaring example of what we can expect with the deterioration of our government bureaucracy. Apparently, the Air Transport Office (ATO) failed to comply with six out of seven air safety categories in the July 2007 audit of the FAA. Were there no competent professionals in the ATO to address this problem or to at least call the attention of the head of the agency to signal a pending disaster?

The ATO is a line agency of the Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC), so DOTC Secretary Leandro Mendoza himself is accountable for the downgrading. Under Mendoza’s watch, the ATO’s failures were already known long before the FAA acted. Therefore, the appointment of Mendoza himself as acting ATO head is illogical, to say the least.

It appears that our national interest is being habitually sacrificed with the appointment of retired generals to positions they are not qualified to lead. While the exercise of Presidential prerogative to appoint persons to high positions in government is not uncommon, it has been abused in this Administration. According to Civil Service Commission Chairperson Karina Constantino-David, there are now 90 former military and police officers in high-level management positions in government. While some of them may be qualified to occupy their posts, having passed the civil service examinations, many of those that failed the examinations are appointed anyway, using the power of Presidential prerogative.

Political appointments, especially those to high positions and those of persons not qualified for their posts, have the pernicious effect of disempowering the rest of the bureaucracy. As explained by Chairperson David, other bureaucrats in the agency who may be qualified are now afraid to make independent and professional decisions because they can be overruled by the political appointees who hold power only because of political connections.

We are saddened that the country has to suffer the ill effects of the downgrading to Category 2 and we trace this to the failure of leadership at the ATO and its mother agency, the DOTC. More fundamentally, we deplore the continuing abuse of Presidential prerogative that has led to the appointment of unqualified but politically well-connected persons to the government bureaucracy.

    Unqualified for posts:

    1. Angelo Reyes (Energy)
    2. Mendoza ( DOTC)

    Noong panahon ni Marcos, ibinubulong ang mga pangalan kung sino ang gustong ma-appoint sa gobyerno. Sa panahon ni Cory, ibinubulong din ang mga gustong ipasok na kamag-anak tulad nang “Kamag-anak ito mam”. Panahon ni FVR, isang tawag lang sa telepono. Sa panahon ni Erap, sinusulat sa papel ang pangalan at pa-simpleng inaabot. Ngayon panahon ni GMA, deretsohan na at pasigaw pa!

  3. rose rose

    mayroon pa bang Civil Service Bureau? Kung sa bagay “political” jobs ang mga ito kaya the only qualification would be “how strong is your kapit”..kahit nga sa military pag nag capitan ka na the speed of your promotion depends on sino ang kinakapitan mo? Kung ang presidente…no questions asked 5 star general ka kaagad..ano ba ang pinakamataas…10 star? Supreme Court Justice..depends on how strong is your kapit sa presidente..
    foreign service ganoon din ata…

  4. Brownberry Brownberry

    May tanong lang ako kay Chairwoman David: Bakit ngayon ka lang nagsalita? Malakas ang loob mo dahil tapos na ang termino mo sa isang buwan. If you knew this has been going on for so long, you should have said something. Why only now?

  5. parasabayan parasabayan

    Bb, tinatanong mo pa si Karina ng “bakit ngayon lang”? You should know that the DOROBO is so known to inflict harm on those who oppose her. So, there! Naniniguro lang itong si Karina na kung may gagawin itong so DOROBO sa kanya, wala na siya sa pwesto or at least paalis na siya. Sana mas marami pang katulad niya sa gobierno para malaman natin ang totoong nangyayari. Karamihan ng mga nakapaligid kay DOROBO ay mga patabaing baboy. Sagana sa pakain ng pera o magandang pwesto galing sa reyna ng EK kaya ang lahat ay tameme na lang!

    Si Mendoza at si Reyes ay dalawa sa maraming taong nagluklok sa reyna sa kanyang pwesto. Kaya kailangang bayaran sila ni DOROBO. Yung “juicy” positions na pwede silang mangurakot ang ibinigay sa kanila. Kaya yun, ang Mrs ni Angelo Reyes ay kagagaling lang sa Mediterranean cruise noong Sept at Oct noong nakaraang taon kasama ng mga alipores nila. Anong say mo!

  6. Brownberry Brownberry

    Siyempre saludo ako kay David sa kanyang sinabi. My point is it would have been much better if such statement was issued earlier not a month before she retires. Kung susundin ko ang rason na huwag pagalitin si GMA para hindi mapatalsik sa position eh lahat na lang na may alam sa kalokohan sa gobyerno magsasalita na lang kapag umalis na o paalis na sa puwesto. Iyan ang isang problema sa atin…tahimik habang nakikinabang pa at dadada na lang kapag paalis na. Nasaan ang tapang niyan? That’s my personal opinion and I don’t expect others to agree with me.

  7. Valdemar Valdemar

    Its true all of the above are less qualified, some unlettered. What do we expect with such low pays anyway. Matiaga lang sila pinagaabot to make both ends meet. They are the honored minions of the people, the envy of detractors.

  8. No wonder pati iyong mga diplomats gusto na rin daw maging OFW, at marami na raw ang nag-quit dahil ayaw nilang mahilira sa mga unqualified.

    This reminds me of a banner I bought in the US long time ago with this quote: “We the unwilling, led by the unqualified, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful.”

  9. noypisausa noypisausa

    During Marcos time, may snopek pa…nabubura ang pangalan ng qualified candidate at napapalitan ng ibang pangalan…retired general o kasangga ni Apo at ng kanyang mga alipores.
    At this time..GMA time…isinusulat na lang sa toilet paper..ok na at appointed na..very, very unprofessional…
    It’s really a shame and hooray for Karina David for pointing this out.

    Good point, BB.

    Sana ay nuon pa, hindi ngayong paalis na!

    Tenkyu na rin kay Karina, at least ay nagsalita s’ya!

    Bunyeta, huwag mo nang dramahan ang over one million civil servants, bistado na kayo sa EK.

    Ang maganda sana ay magkaroon ng survey sa over one million gov’t employees kung ilan sa kanila ang umaayon sa mga pinaggagawa ni Gloria Pidal. Kaya lang ay wala rin itong kakahinatnan dahil tiyak na maga-Garci din!

  15. Brownberry Brownberry

    Thanks Chi. Again, I’m not saying what David did was wrong. Kahanga-hanga nga ang ginawa niya. Pero hindi maalis na isipin ng tao bakit ngayon lang kung kailan papalitan na siya. To the malicious minded people, they might even think David was not able to get what she wanted; that is, to be transferred or appointed to another government position kaya nagtatampo kay GMA. Ang tunay na matapang ay iyon habang nasa tuktok pa ng tagumpay sa position hindi iyon tatahimik dahil baka ma-inflict harm daw ni GMA. Anong klaseng tapang iyan kung tapos na? It’s like playing in sports when one complains when the game is about to end, and the reason is not to antagonize the referee.

    BB,

    Hindi lahat ay tulad nina Trillanes, Gen. Lim, Capt. Faeldon and fellow Magdalo. 🙂

    We should be thankful that Karina pissed off EK.

    Karina David has consistently spoken out whenever GMA made a bad decision, although not as publicly as this. She spoke up when GMA sacked the former Pag-IBIG president, Manny Crisostomo, a career official, merely on the recommendation of Mike Defensor, who didn’t like the way Crisostomo was protecting members’ funds. David has always defended career officials and civil service eligibles. There’s no way we can have an efficient bureaucracy if we let unqualified individuals ride roughshod over qualified ones.

  22. xanadu xanadu

    Si Karina Constantino David ay asawa ni Prof. Randy David, a known critic of Gloria Arroyo. Very impressive ang kanyang credentials at hindi matatawaran ang kanyang kakayahan.

    Prior to this, it is known fact in the CSC that Karina David, being a government official, observed the proper decorum in not making public public statement on the said irregular appointments. But instead, it is being done thru official communications addressed to the Office of the President as it was the right thing to do. It’s only now that she’s bowing out of the office she apparently made a decision to openly criticize Gloria.

    Reyes and Mendoza are the original kudeta plotters.

    DKG,

    Lahat sila eh unqualified, except those who have civil service and permanent employees in any gov’t institutions, but right now ALL appointed by Arroyo regime are not eligible from any designated positions in the gov’t coz’enchanted kingdom is an illegitimate regime.

    Saling pusa lang ang mga iyan kaya nagkakandaloko-loko ang bayan. These people are hoodlums in uniform. Sila yong mga tinaguriang maginoong-corrupt!

    Wordsmith,

    RE: Karina David has consistently spoken out whenever GMA made a bad decision, although not as publicly as this.

    Bakit ngayon lang siya nag-ingay? Nakonsensiya na siya sa kanyang bosing? Di ba si Randy David eh naharas at dinampot na ng mga pulis-patola noong kasagsagan ng pag-ayaw kay GMA, para tumahimik eh binigyan ng pwesto itong si Karina para nga naman check at mate si Randy.

    Weather weather nga naman kasi malapit na ang 2010, at kanya-kanya ang mga iyan ng kalas sa EK at lipat-bakod yan sa Oposisyon.

  26. balweg balweg

    Xanadu,

    Halos lahat ng mga tuta ni GMA eh edukado at may master yan o kaya doctorate pa di ba! Pero ano, mga boba pala kasi bakit sila napagagamit sa corrupt at elligitimate regime, para yumaman o makapag lakwatsa sa abroad ng libre may pocket money pa.

    Sayang sila dahil walang guts sa sarili, dapat tularan natin sina Rizal, Bonifacio, Plaridel, Del Pilars brothers, at iba pa sa kanilang kagitingan at pagmamahal sa bayan.

    Salot sila sa ating lipunan!

    Wala akong bilib sa kanya? Bakit kamo, eh isa yang konsintidora eh, ngayon magmamalinis pa….dahil malapit na ang 2010, WAG NA!

    Isa ma yan sa mga corrupt!Traydor sa bayan. Di pwedeng pagkatiwalaan at kaya tayong ibenta para lang magkapwesto sa gobyerno.

    40% of unqualified gov’t officials were apppointed “only” because she is a bad politician.

    Could you imagine if she was a better than most politician?

  30. Brownberry Brownberry

    Balweg, I wonder if this Chairwoman David is related to Randy David. But I know many Davids are from Pampanga, GMA’s cabalens. May matalik akong kaibigan David na taga Marikina na isang Kapampangan. Without generalizing, if she’s from Pampanga, that may explain why she’s only saying it now when she’s about to leave CSC. Wala na akong idadagdag sa sinabi ko at baka ma-offend ko ang ibang nakakakilala sa kanya dito.

  31. Brownberry Brownberry

    Maiba ako ng kaunti, isa na naman itong katarantaduhang ginawa ng isang GI sa Pilipinas. Wala pa ngang nangyari doon sa Sulu hospital incident, eto na naman isang “hit and run” case. Pustahan, hindi papansinin iyan ng AFP at Malacanang…

    ZAMBOANGA CITY, Philippines — Police authorities here said on Thursday they have been trying to track down an unidentified American soldier, who figured in a traffic incident with a local on Wednesday.

    Senior Police Officer 1 Rud de Leña, police investigator, said on Thursday that Dante Clemente, a resident of Sta. Maria village, was passing by the gates of the Edwin Andrews Airbase here when a US military vehicle, with plate number XRU 931, hit his motorbike on Wednesday morning.

    US soldiers have been in the city since the conduct of the first Balikatan a few years ago. They are based at the Airbase.

    De Leña said Clemente was injured while his motorbike was damaged.

    Instead of helping the victim, the unidentified US soldier left a card with the words “JSOTFP” written on it and casually left, he said.

    De Leña said the unidentified US soldier also did not pay for Clemente’s medical expenses.

    One has to get out first to lambast the organization to his heart’s content. That is the first and foremost paramount rule in ethics. For a very qualified person such as Ms. David, one must never forget his marbles.

  33. eddfajardo eddfajardo

    Sabi ko na nga ba itong GMA administration ayaw tumanggap ng katotohanan. Biruin mo instead na accept it constructively eh sinisiraan pa nila itong CSC commissioner na alam naman ng lahat na tutuo lang sinasabi niya. Ang dami talagang moron diyan sa gabinete ni Arroyo. Isa na ay si Reyes ng Energy at Mendoza ng DOTC. Huwag pa natin kalilimutan iyong 23 years old na Magsaysay na ipinasok na board of director ng Subic Bay Free Trade Zone na tumatanggap daw ng PHP 10,000 per meeting at marami pang perks. Sobra na ito, mga kababayan.

  34. Sabi nga, kung ayaw e di mag-quit. Remember the old adage, “If you can’t lick ’em, join ’em.” Kaya itong si David, naniguro muna sabi nga.

    Come to think of it, saan naman naging noble ang ginawa niya?

  35. Ellen,
    I would say 40% is a conservative estimate. Ask any outsider (foreigner or balikbayan). Customs, quarantine, baggage porters, rental drivers – kadadating mo pa lang sa airport kinokotongan ka na!

    “One has to get out first to lambast the organization to his heart’s content. That is the first and foremost paramount rule in ethics. For a very qualified person such as Ms. David, one must never forget his marbles.”

    Exactly, Valdemar. I totally agree.

    Forty percent are unqualified, and thirty percent are ghost employees. Kaya walang nangyayari sa bayan.

  38. How do they make kotong? Honestly want to know… thanks

  39. rontoniotrill4 rontoniotrill4

    ano pa ba ang aasahan mo sa gobyernong palpak?sa totoo lang lang,lahat naman ng humahawak ng mga posisyon sa pamahalaan ni PANDAKEKOK ay mga walang credentials at karapatan.mula sa President,Vice President hanggang sa pinakamababang posisyon,hindi sila karapat-dapat.kaya nga ganito ang nangyayari sa mahal nating Pilipinas.

  40. parasabayan parasabayan

    Anna, kotong happens in all levels in all ofices. In payment of taxes for instance, taxes are reduced kung may “padulas” to the one preparing the bill. In inspections for boilers, electrical, mechanical and sanitation for hotel operations, the kotong may be in the form of “free” room nights for the inspectors to be used with their “kabits” for short time. Even as simple as filing a legal paper in the city hall. If you give “padulas” the clerk will process the paper expeditiously and if not, the needed paper may take months to be processed.

    One time I was travelling with PAL and it was Christmas. I had an overweight carry on luggage. The ground attendant who was weighing my bag said pwede naman ho nating palusutin yan huwag lang tayong magpahalata and he indirectly wanted me to give him something. I told him that I was going to report him to the management if he continued to do his “thing” and I told him that the reason why Filipinos never get off the ground economically is their tendency to “kotong”. This incident happened at the Los Angeles airport. I told this attendant not to bring his “bad habit” to another country dahil nakakahiya talaga! To this day, I still kept the name of that ground personnel of PAL. Just recently at the Manila airport, an employee saw that I had a few thousand pesos left in my wallet(he searched through my bag thoroughly). He asked me what I was going to do with the pesos left when I can no longer use it again so he insinuated that I would just give the peso money to him, in a joking manner( they have their own way of extorting money from you and I can write volumes of books on how to kotong even with just my experiences). I told him that I was going back to PI in a few weeks again and I will use the pesos again.

    Every move you make, there are “kotongs” made. Afterall, the president herself is not a role model. What can you expect? Follow the leader, di ba? Ano ang tawag natin sa ZTE deal, di ba kotong din yun? Very high stake kotong nga lang!

  41. Anna,

    Customs: Ma’m, bubuksan pa ba natin iyan? Mapapagod lang tayo, NAUUHAW na nga kami e magpapagod pa.(Kapal!)

    Quarantine: Ms. AdeBrux, Yung orchids mo, may lupa yata, mahihirapan yan lumusot pero kung kakausapin nyo yung kasama ko, matutulungan kayo. (Langya, orchids itinanim ba sa lupa?)

    Porter: Happy… ano po… Happy… Valentines!(alam mo na yun)

    Taxi driver: Fifteen dollars po ma’m hanggang doon sa ______ (hotel na hindi mo naman pupuntahan) pag lampas doon, ten dollars additional.

    Pag minalas-malas ka, pag dating mo sa kanto ng Tramo at EDSA, yari ka pa sa Pulis ng overloading!

  42. Valdemar Valdemar

    To say those 40 percent are unqualified is too naive. They are qualified thieves. My olds left a mere thousand sq m of titled farm land. In 2000 I asked the DENR and the RD to recall the title they issued to a third party (sold by the descendants of the tenant). I checked my letter in 2005. The letter was lost but they issued another dozen titles on the same property to other persons. As of now, there might be a new dozen titles issued again.

  43. J. Cruz J. Cruz

    atty36252: 40% of 3,000 — unqualified! 30% — ghost employees! The remaining 30% — what’s their designations?

    Alam niyo ba ang sagot ng mga unqualified na government employees and officials? Kung si Boss at Amo namin sa Malacanang unqualified, siyempre kami din? Sagot din ng isang mahilig magbasa ng biblia: A servant cannot be greater than his master (in Malacanang).

  45. balweg balweg

    J.C.,

    Ang remaining 30% parati niyang kasama tuwing mag merry-go- round ang EK sa ibayong dagat. Sa Davos eh isang batalyon uli ang kasama doon at magliliwaliw pa ata sa Dubai….doon daw magstay sa most expensive hotel! Ang daming nagugutom sa Pinas, naman naman…..maawa na kayo sa mga squatters na walang matirhan at walang makain.

  46. balweg balweg

    Di ba bogus ang tawag doon Ka BB, ang siste nito eh karamihan diyan eh graduates sa prestigious schools at may master o kaya PHD pa.

    Buti pa yong mga graduates sa Recto University eh karamihan nag-OFW na lamang para mabuhay ang pamilya sa Pinas. Sila eh overqualified pa sana kung mag-OFW pero diyan sa Pinas nagpapasasa sa pera ni ka Juan.

  47. Brownberry Brownberry

    Ano ka, ang mga OFWs hindi lang galing sa Recto kung saan nagtapos. Maraming mga galing sa reputable schools, master at mataas na degree ang OFW ngayon. May isa ngang doctor sa RP na nag-top ng medical board at nasa US bilang isang nurse. Topnatcher sa pagka-doctor isa nang nurse ngayon na utusan ng mga doctor sa Tate.

  48. balweg balweg

    Double meaning ang ibig kong sabihin Ka BB, ofcourse marami ang galing sa famous skuls sa Pinas at ang iba dito eh honor students pa.

    Ang ibig ko bagang sabihin eh di lang sila ang may mataas na pinag-aralan at talino. Kung kaya nilang patakbuhin ang Pinas eh mas kaya natin kasi by experience eh high standard ang ating mga karanasan.

    Yon ngang mga hinahawakan naming medical equipment eh advance ang parameters mga latest models pa. Sa Pinas only few hospitals can acquired it sa mahal ng halaga.

  49. Brownberry Brownberry

    Pasensiya ka na dahil mahina ako sa double meaning. Sa dami ng doble cara, dobleng mukha ngayon…allergic na ako sa salitang doble. It reminds me of that witness Doble. Kumusta na kaya ang lahat na mga testigo noon? Iyon mainit na issue sa jueteng…wala na, paktay na. Where are you Sandy Cam? Where are you Archbishop Cruz? Jueteng must be going on big time these days. Kahit na sa Batangas na ipinagmamalaki si Vilma Santos na walang jueteng-jueteng sa kanya during the election campaign, ngayon iba na ang tono niya…inamin niya na hindi madaling mapaalis ang jueteng sa kanilang lugar. Kasi ba naman ang nagpapatakbo ang asawang si Recto na unemployed ngayon.

    Pahabol just read this morning in tribune.net

    Berroya to leave LTO top post, promoted as DoTC undersecretary for telecom

    Another unqualified post since the reason is this:
    A source said President Arroyo and DoTC Secretary Leandro Mendoza personally chose Berroya to steer the telecommunications, citing his expertise in communications and intelligence network.

    Intelligence network — baka magamit ang Telecommunication sa mga opposition…HOPE I AM WRONG.

  51. Brownberry Brownberry

    Mendoza, Berroya, Lastimosa, Ermita, Esperon…lahat iyan mga bata ni FVR. Anong alam ni Berroya sa Telecommunication? Malacanang claims he’s fitted to join the Telecommunication because of his expertise in intelligence network. Anong connection ng intelligence work sa telecommunication? Dapat aminin ng Malacanang inilalagay nila si Berroya diyan para tiktikan ang media, mga radio at TV network. Ang dami pang sinabi!

  52. balweg balweg

    Ka BB/Jojovelas2005,

    Di ba yang si Berroya ang ipinakulong ni Sen. Lacson noon dahil sa kasong kinasangkutan nito.

    Hay naku, delikado ang Oposisyon nito dahil bakit pa sa Telecomunication siya ilalagay? Obvious ang kanilang movement. Militarize na ang halos lahat ng ahensiya ng EK. Isang araw magugulantang na lamang ang Pinoyzki na martial rule na.

    Magmatyag at pray moment by moment para di tayo malansi ng roaring lion now wanted to devour us.

  53. Brownberry Brownberry

    As usual, the bad boy behind all these is FVR. He makes sure that all his boys are placed in all sensitive position until 2010. Sa tanda na ni FVR, ewan ko ba kung ano pa ang gusto niya. Ano pa ang gusto niyang mangyari. Why doesn’t he fade away in peace so that he can die in peace?

  54. Valdemar Valdemar

    Ang doctor ay isa lang na pre-nursing course. Over qualified talaga ang mga OFW. May masters kahit domestics. I heard also that some local 15-30 proteges are paid oversea rate by some offices, one is the veterans.

  55. parasabayan parasabayan

    “Militarize na ang halos lahat ng ahensiya ng EK”. “Isang araw magugulantang na lamang ang mga Pinoyzki na martial rule na”!
    Balweg, ito ang isa sa mga unfinished businesses ni asspweron at ni DOROBO siyempre sa direction ni TABAKO! Martial rule is just around the corner talaga. Then mag cha-charter change para tuloy ang ligaya ni Tabako na gustong maging Prime Minister pa. Kung ang mga Pilipino ay magtutulog-tulogan bukas makalawa tayo ay nasa MARCOS ERA na naman. At least noong panahon ni Marcos marami siya talagang nagawa na infrastructures. During his time (when he was not yet sick), corruption was at bay. It was only when he was so sick that Imelda with all the powerful generals ransacked the treasury and of course Marcos was in command and whether he was able or not, he had to be responsible for all the atrocities in his command. Thus the hate from all the people. I can’t blame the Filipinos then.

  56. parasabayan parasabayan

    FVR was the less favoured general during the Marcos regime. Kaya nga bumaliktad sa sarili niyang pinsan (Marcos). How can this man(Tabako) be trusted? So now nangangahas pa rin siya kahit na wala na siya sa pwesto. Such an EVIL man talaga! Now we all know why his own cousin did not trust him in the first place. Talaga pala itong Tabako na ito ay the NUMBER ONE na UNQUALIFIED PUBLIC SERVANT! He is only for HIMSELF! He is the root of all the troubles the Philippines have now. He engineered DOROBO’s ascension to power so he could manipulate her to his own advantage. Asspweron is just one of his tools, Mendoza, Angie Reyes, Ebdame etal. The more idealistic generals Like Senga and Mayuga just retired in oblivion. Senga may now feel so bad for not doing anything about the detention of the Tanay Boys. If he acted on a timely manner, what he was able to control(the marching of the Tanay Boys) would not have resulted to the incarceration of these officers but Senga handed the matter to Asspweron who was at that time looking for a boost to his “Cheat of Staff” position thus he became a Judas. Mayuga is probably banging his head on the wall now for not divulging the contents of the whitewashed Mayuga report. What was there to divulge anyway when the key conspirators, perpetrators, operators and witnesses in the 2004 cheating operations were not really interviewed(accdg to reliable sources). The retired generals na halang ang mga sikmura na katulad nila Asspweron, Ebdame, Reyes, Mendoza atbp ang nagpapakasasa sa kasisipsip kay DOROBO ngayon.

  57. parasabayan parasabayan

    Wasn’t this Melo the one the DOROBO assigned to head the probing team into the extrajudicial killings? Wala ring nangyari, di ba? Sus, kaya pala isa pa itong hindi qualified to be a Public Servant. Talaga ngang qualified sa EK itong si Melo. Ang mga tanong lang naman sa mga applicants para maging miembro ka ng DOROBO GANG ay ang mga ito:
    Marunong ka bang magsinungaling?
    Marunong ka bang magnakaw?
    Marunong ka bang mandaya?
    Marunong ka bang pumatay o kaya mo bang sikmurain
    kapag nakakita ka ng pinapatay?
    Marunong ka ba bang magtago ng sikreto hanggang sa
    iyong libing?
    Kung nasagot mo ang lahat ng katanungang ito, YOU ARE IN THE EK!!!!Qualified na qualified ka!

    PSB,

    Ang nakakainis ay matagal ng retired ‘yang si Melo. Walang matino na nais sumali sa Gloria d’ Corrupt gang, iyong mga ulyanin na lang!

    PSB, etong si FVR hindi lang nag-traidor sa pinsan niyang si Marcos at sa bayan, kahit sa religion at pananampalataya niya.
    He is or was a Protestant. Protestants do not worship idols and graven images. This is their basic doctrine and belief. Pero noong 1986 Revolution, kitang-kita ng bansa kung paano niyang itinaas ang rebulto ni Mama Mary at nagsayaw pa. Then, in order to be close and identified with Cory and other Edsa groups, FVR attended Catholic Mass. Protestants do not believe in Mass. They say and according to the Bible, we should not be crucifying Christ and put Him to death every time Mass is being officiated. Christ died only once. Pero etong si Tabako, nagdarasal pa kasama ang ibang mga Katoliko para lang masabing “in” siya sa crowd. Buti pa ang asawa niya na pinaninindigan ang kanyang pananampalataya. If someone like FVR could sell his own cousin and religion, why cannot he sell the country to the foreigners? Or he already did…
