He also asked that proper auditing of all these sequestered assets be done and the names of all those who served as PCGG officials and agents be published to establish their accountabilities, if any. Finally, he advised that instead of creating the Truth Commission, P-Noy simply should form a dedicated special unit within the Office of The President which can study and go over the records of “suspect” deals especially such high profile ones as the aborted NBN-ZTE, NAIA3/Piatco, North Rail/CNMEG, LTO/Stradcom, Peace Bonds and the MRT3 “Bonds Buy Out,” to name a few of the more controversial projects, and then proceed to go after the malcontents if warranted. We also received letters from Jose Sevilla on the goings-on at the Comelec, Joan Cruz on the peace process, Haydee Duran on Slex and the toll rate increase and Roland Villacrucis on the NFA, LTO and Customs. We will discuss some of their points in subsequent columns and pursue some of the leads they provided..... MORE
