Janet Lim Napoles Surrenders


Wazzup Pilipinas!

The government offered a Php10 million reward for information that will lead to the arrest of Janet Lim-Napoles. Napoles is wanted on charges of serious illegal detention arising from the alleged kidnapping of Benhur Luy. But the real issue is her participation in the billion of pesos PDAF scam.

But after just a few days, we now hear of news that Napoles has surrendered to no less than the President of the Philippines. The President immediately turned her over to the custody of Interior and Local Government Secretary Mar Roxas and Philippine National Police Director-General Alan Purisima for processing and booking.

Napoles was shielded immediately . No Media, No Mugshot. Senate and Congress have instructions to keep the comfort rooms clean, as they expect massive usage...hahaha.

Is this an indication that the corruption may really be that hugely associated or linked with big people under the Executive that Napoles had to go to the top?

Million People March to Scrap Pork Barrel


Wazzup Pilipinas!
"We Appreciate the fact that the President has responded to the public clamor to abolish the PDAF. However, the altternative package of still allowing the Congressmen and Senators to identify sponsored projects to be funded, albeit as line items in the annual budget, continues to leave MONEY within the grasp of conniving and corrupt public officials. In effect, this merely shifted the timeframe upon when these projects are identified and approved. Therefore, the PORK BARREL REMAINS!

We pursue our call for completely abolishing the Pork Barrel. Let our legislators just legislate."
This is the reason why a great number of people continued to troop towards Luneta to join the Million People March. The complete scrapping of the Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF) or pork barrel is what majority of the people wants. Its what everyone deserves.
 

But when you read statements like these below, I'm not really so sure the pork barrel will really get scrapped. It might just get reborn with another name:

Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF) : A Farewell to the Pork Barrel


"There's wisdom in weighing all factors before making a decision,
there's strength in making it on your own terms, your own time,
specially if you're the leader of your country, for the good of all~

Haters will hate, idots will sound idiotic, but the fact remains that PNoy
consistently makes the strong, right decisions at the perfect, right times.
I'm proud and grateful to have this man as the President of the Philippines." - Spanky Enriquez

Wazzup Pilipinas!

I have to agree with what a Facebook friend has posted above on his Facebook status. Our president is not a man who could quickly come up with decisions but I give him the benefit of the doubt that he is slow because he takes careful consideration of all matters related to the issues.
We hear him say this at a Malacanang presscon only three days before a netizen-organized rally against the congressional pork barrel will be held in Luneta. The declaration was just last Friday informing the Philippine nation that he was abolishing the corruption-tainted funding vehicle officially called the Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF) but more popularly known as the "pork barrel".
I've seen all the comments across my Facebook timeline and somehow most of them still have something negative to say about the President despite of his recent stand.

Seemingly departing from his earlier stand, President Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino III on Friday said it is time to abolish the PDAF. It was a turnaround from Aquino’s position before saying that the pork barrel fund had its “good uses” and should not be junked.

Jeane Lim Napoles : You Are So Hot! You Are Jampacked with Awesomeness!


 
Wazzup Pilipinas!

Mother scammer Napoles' daughter's party... Lookey-lookey at the video below how they spent their so-called billion-peso kickbacks... Aaaarrrrrgggghhhhhhh!
 "YOU LOOK SO HOTTTT!" YOU LOOK SO HOT IN THE EYES OF THE FILIPINO PEOPLE. SHAME ON YOU JEANE LIM NAPOLES!
 
That's our hard earned money via tax... amp! I vote for tax revolt... scrap PDAF!
Though a tax revolt sounds nice, it doesn't do a lot for those of us whose taxes are automatically deducted from our paychecks before we get our hands on our own money.

What I'm wondering is that does Jeane ever know where her parents got the money? If no, then I wonder how will she feel and what will she do if she found out?

But if yes and she deliberately did it with her parents, I'm guessing she can be arrested as well, now that she's 21 (so I'm guessing the good thing about this video is that it shows she can now be, well, arrested. Nyahahahahahaha! XD).
