Rep. Neri Colmenares of Bayan Muna on Monday questioned the P1.487-million bonus given to employees of the National Livelihood Development Center (NLDC), a government-owned and -controlled corporation (GOCC) which was reportedly used as a conduit of the fake nongovernmental groups owned by Janet Napoles.

“What are the good things that NLDC has done when they have implemented ghost projects? The issue is not just the amount of the bonuses, but do they deserve it in the first place? This agency should be probed. Instead, they even got incentives!” House Deputy Minority Leader Colmenares said.
