Billions still wasted in Pnoy’s watch, corruption persists

Billions worth of government funds went to waste early into the Aquino administration, which occupied Malacañang in 2010. A similar squandering of the people’s money, seemingly, has since been taking place, this time through the controversial Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP), which the Supreme Court recently ruled as illegal.

One perfect example of funds going down the drain involved the P1 billion given by President Aquino to Gov. Roel de Gamo of Negros Oriental in 2012 for a river-dredging project in the province.
