Kaban ni D_BystandeR: DUMANJUG MIAYUDA SA NABIYAANG PAMILYA SA BAYANI

The cash assistance of P20K given by Dumanjug municipal government to the family of P01 Wendel Candano, a SAF member who died in Maguindanao plus the P80K as additional assistance will certainly go a long way to help the family (a wife and a son)  of the fallen soldier. But the Trust Fund initiated by Mayor Nelson Garcia for the educational expenses of Candano's 7-year old son, Sian Gabriel, which can only be enjoyed by the beneficiary when he reaches 18 is a long story to tell. Somewhere along the way, so many things can happen and to expect for it to materialize will be like "counting the chicks when not yet hatched." To be practical, why not allow the son to be funded in school up to the time he graduates in college?
