Kaban ni D_BystandeR: MGA BIKTIMA NI YOLANDA, NAGPABILIN SA PAGKATUMBA
If Congressman Niel Tupaz
is regarded to be wielding power and influence in major issues that the administration wants to
show it is working in line with "Matuwid na daan" policy of P-Noy, he
should try to focus his attention to this particular "mess" which, surely,
is now making our country a bad image not worthy of the respect and sympathy of
the international community who had swiftly responded and acted out of genuine
concern to help the typhoon "Yolanda" victims only to learn
afterwards that the money they contributed did not fulfill their humanitarian
goal as expected as a big chunk of their contribution ended up being deposited
in the depository accounts of DSWD amounting to a whooping P737M despite the
fact that 10 months after the devastation caused by typhoon Yolanda some
typhoon victims are still languishing in abject poverty due to poor living
conditions.
