Kongreso nagdagdag ng kanilang porkAPAT lang sa 199 kasapi ng Kapu-lungan ng mga Kinatawan na du-malo noong Martes ang tumutol
sa pagkontrol sa may P20 milyonhanggang P30 milyon ng pon-dong kukuhanin mula sa multi-bilyon pisong road user’s tax.
Ayon kay Bayan Muna Rep.Teodoro Casiño, hindi na siyanagtaka kung bakit halos lahat ngkongresista gustong madagdaganang pork barrel nila, na tinatawagna priority development assis-tance fund (PDAF) at tinakda saP70 milyon kada taon.
Inaasahan namang mada-ragdagan ng P60 milyon angP200-milyong taunang pork bar-rel ng bawat isang senador.
Sa House Bill No. 4069 niQuezon Rep. Danilo Suarez, nili-pat sa mga mambabatas mula saRoad Board na binubuo ng mgatinalaga ng Pangulo ang paggamitsa pondong malilikom mula saMotor Vehicle User’s Charge(MVUC) Law, o road user’s tax.
Aniya, hindi ito dapat ituringna pork barrel sapagkat hindimanggagaling sa pondo ng Kon-
greso. Mananatili umano angpondo sa Department of PublicWorks and Highways at mamba-
batas lang ang magtatakda ngproyektnog paglalaanan nito.
Pahayag naman ni Casiño: “It’s
just like transferring water from apail with a big hole to anotherpail but with smaller holes. Thenet effect is that these leakagesand opportunities for anomalieswill not be plugged.” GC Jr.

Hong Kong judge kumiling kay SingsonHONG KONGSumang-ayon siWanchai District Court JudgeJoseph Yau kahapon kay IlocosSur Rep. Ronald Singson na pa-ra sa personal na gamit lang angcocaine na pinasok nito sa teri-
toryo noong isang taon at hindiibebenta o ibabahagi.Pumanig si Yau kay Singson
bago pa ihayag ang sentensyangayong araw sa kongresistangumamin sa kaso ng pagpuslit ngiligal na droga.
Nahuli si Singson, 42, na may 6.6 gramo ng cocaine at dala-wang tableta ng narkotikong Ni-trazepam sa paliparan sa HongKong noong Hulyo. Sa ilalim ngbatas-Hong Kong, maituturingnang trafficking ang pagbitbitng droga sa teritoryo.
Ayon kay Yau, masyadongkaunti ang drogang dala niSingson sa Hong Kong upangmaisip na ibebenta niya ito.
At hindi umano kailangangmagbenta ng droga ng kongre-
sista sapagkat nagkakamal itong yaman sa iba’t ibang negos-yo. Wala rin umano itong kaibi-gan sa Hong Kong o Macau nababahaginan niya ng droga.
Kumbinsido rin ito na adik sacocaine si Singson nang maa-resto.

Sad that Valentine “red” canturn into “bloody red” when
hearts bleed. I texted Aiko tocheck on her. She replied: “I’mbetter now. Coping with thehelp of family and friends likeyou. Paano ba ’yan? Pareho natayong single? I’m not ready togrant interviews yet ’cause it’sstill fresh.”
Aiko has survived many lovebattles. Her “battle” scars serveas a badge of honor of a wom-an who has loved well and hasraised her kids the best way she
can. Hopefully, the next timeAiko falls, love will no longerturn into war so her heart willfinally be at peace with theworld.
Aiko and Patrick’s split-upgot me thinking about the “lovetalk” I’ve had with my celebrity friends. Allow me to share someof the words of wisdom I’vegathered on my way to “happy ever after.” May it give yourheart something to smile aboutor yearn for as we kiss the LoveMonth goodbye.
GLORIA DIAZ: “It may notwork for others but it works forme. I think it’s better if couplesdon’t get married and don’t livetogether. Instead, travel a lot to-gether. That way you maintainthe mystery and the excite-ment.”
VICKI BELO: “If I give up onsomeone after all we’ve beenthrough, how sure am I that it
will work out with anybody else? At some point we shouldalso be thankful for heartaches’cause it means we’re alive!”
POPS FERNANDEZ: “They say we can’t have it all at onetime even in our relationships. Ithink we can. It’s just that wedon’t appreciate it enough whenwe still have it.”
PRINCESS PUNZALAN-FIELD: “Just like food, love isbest when you let it simmer.Don’t rush into love. ’Di ba masnutritious and masarap angpinakuluan na matagal nasabaw kaysa instant cup noo-dles?”
RUFFA GUTIERREZ: “Rela-tionships can get tiring when
it’s more of like babysitting.Even empowered women likeme need to be taken care of,too. When we’re young, we re-sent our mom’s advice aboutthe guys we date but as we
grow older we realize thatmoms really know best, afterall.”
CESAR MONTANO: “Wivesmust really be subservient totheir husbands at siguradongsusuklian namin ’yun ng ser-bisyo na para sa isang reyna. A wife and a husband should beeach other’s boss.”
DINGDONG DANTES: “Sarelasyon ang importantemasaya kayo pareho whether
you are together or not. Se-cured kayo dapat pareho sokahit may araw na ’di kayomagkasama, happy pa rin kayoknowing that your partner isjust there.”
DJ MO: “Guys should alwaysstrive to be better than the lastboyfriend their girlfriend had.That’s what I always do.”
MIRIAM QUIAMBAO: “Weneed to find ways to fill thevoid in ourselves not by findinga partner. When you enter a re-lationship dapat buo ka na andyour partner is just there tocomplement you as a whole.”
DINA BONNEVIE: “Your kidscannot embrace you the way apartner does. So the love wehave for our kids and our part-ner can never be equal or thesame.”
