Rodolfo Antonino accuses local dummies of foreign firms of demonizing Charter change. With a slush fund of P15 million, he says, the dummies are using STOP Cha-cha, which opposes the manner but not the need for constitutional reforms, to promote surreptitious ends. They have given P5 million to an ad agency to place wayward materials like imagined transitory provisions that would make Gloria Arroyo and Noli de Castro rule for life.

Kunwari’y mas mura ang bid ng Piatco miski iba pala ang terms of reference – na labag sa batas. Tapos, miski may kontrata, natulog ang Piatco nang dalawang taon. Nang magbago ng administrasyon nu’ng 1998, apat na beses nitong hinimas ang kontrata para pumabor sa sarili. Sa testimonya ng mga kasapi sa proyekto, sina Joseph Estrada at executive secretary Ronaldo Zamora ang inayos.

Not so in the case of NAIA Terminal-3, whose ceiling collapsed days before scheduled test-run. Here, builder Piatco, German partner Fraport, and general contractor Takenaka are in a hurry to lay their hands on anywhere from $412-$560 million in construction fees. And officials of the owner-government are too eager to pay out a $55-million installment even without thorough check.
