[Title] => Angara: GMA planning midnight deals
[Summary] => Sen. Edgardo Angara accused President Arroyo yesterday of cooking up "midnight deals," including the sale of government properties in Japan, to raise funds for her election campaign.
"The sale of four properties in Tokyo and Kobe is part of a string of bargain deals that the Arroyo administration has worked out to advance her personal agenda. We will question these transactions as we consider them irregular and anomalous. These are midnight deals," Angara said.
