                    [Summary] => MAY mga text messages tayong tinanggap mula sa ilang pinatalsik na tenants ng Luneta Boardwalk kaugnay ng nailathala natin noong Sabado. Sila ang mga dating stall owners na sapul pa noong panahon ni Philippine Tourism  Authority General Manager  Nixon Kua ay nangungupahan na doon. Pero nang maluklok si Robert Dean Barbers sa pagpasok ng administrasyong Arroyo, bigla na lamang silang itinaboy at     ang mga nagmatigas ay dinemolis pa ang mga puwesto.

                    [Summary] => NAGHIHIMUTOK at galit ang mga stallowners  sa Luneta Boardwalk. Sapilitan daw silang itinaboy ng Philippine Tourism Authority (PTA) sa pamumuno ni PTA Gen. Manager  Robert Dean Barbers. Ang masaklap, itinuring daw silang professional squatters gayung may kasunduan silang nilagdaan sa PTA sa panahon ng panunungkulan ng kaibigan natin at kasamahang kolumnistang si Nixon Kua, dating hepe ng PTA sa panahon ni ex-President Erap.


Ganyan na ba ngayon ang sistema? Hindi na kinikilala ng bagong administrasyon ang mga kontratang pinasok ng dating pamunuan? Tsk, tsk. Bad yan.

Tourism Secretary Richard Gordon, former chairman of the Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority, said they decided to cancel the project so that the Boardwalk fund could be used for promotional activities.

Naghahanap si Gordon ng isang pribadong kompanya na interesado sa pagpapatuloy at makumpleto ang multi-million project.
