Pork Barrel redux

It is exciting that Rep. Antonio Tinio has released transcripts / recordings of those “conversations” members of Congress had on separate occasions with Commission on Higher Education (CHED) Chairperson Patricia Licuanan and Department of Health (DOH) Undersecretary Janette Garin.

It doesn’t even matter to me that it has been barred by the House Justice Committee, coming as it has after the three impeachment complaints filed in July. Because it is valuable that we know for a fact that the pork is acknowledged to continue to exist by government officials. Because it is important that we do not get lost in the PNoy government’s rhetoric about the pork barrel, insisting that it doesn’t exist anymore.
