Kaban ni D_BystandeR: DILI PA BA ANDAM SI MIKE MAGPAHILING SA IYANG KABTANGAN???

Of all the people I know, what I find hard to understand is Mayor Mike Rama. When news about the lifestyle check on police "higher ups" hit the headlines, I find him saying something which, reading it "between the lines," would mean his "hard to define" disapproval. He suggests that lifestyle check should be done to everybody in the government, and this will  take the objective hard to achieve the desired objective because instead of narrowing down the "search" to a few individuals, if we are to follow Rama's proposal to subject  everybody to a lifestyle check even if doing so is not anymore in line with the objective, is ridiculous! Going back to the proliferation of illegal drugs which persistently dragged quite a number of our city barangay workers as connected to the "drug," when it first became apparent that drug addicts working in the City Hall will be subjected to COSAP's inspection from time to time, he made it a point, as if to make it be known that he is treating it with "kid gloves" that those caught will not be dismissed but only to be sent for rehabilitation. So, people has already considered it part of of their daily experience to know that in every COSAP  inspection there is always somebody to be caught because there is no "milled fist" policy adopted by the City Hall to totally eradicate the "drug" menace.
