text: How come this incident has only been posted on this site now, when it occurred on the 9th of May 2008?

text: Nevertheless, this is tragic and among a string of crimes committed in the last months that should send shivers to all Biliranons.

text: They sould have hung one Roberto Illar alias “Berto” by his nuts and then stuffed them down his thoat...before burning him alive. I thiink someone once said” Eye for an Eye and a tooth for a tooth”. Let the punishment fit the crime and you will see a decrease in the criminal activity in Biliran. Wake up Pulis and wake up Judge. Soon the people of Biliran will take things into their on hands, and that is when it will get messy. Just my thoughts!

text: Further, you have failed to consider that in effect, Gerry Espina Sr. still maintains control of Biliran as majority of the incumbent elective officials belong to either KAMPI or LAKAS, of which Gerry Espina Sr is the titular head in Biliran.

text: Further, it is obvious that you have not done your research about the issues nor are you serious about your advocacy. Hence, the propensity to resort to personal attacks without factual basis.

text: maayo man na imo intensyon aquarius parte kontra korupsyon pero mao lagi dili pod nato malimod nga kining panhitaboa sa atong burokrasya dili lang ni sa ato nahitabo, kung di bisag asang dapit deri sa atong nasod mao na ning kasagarang panghitabo.
  bahin sa imong pangutana unsa dili nako kaangayan kang glenda?susama gyapon siya sa kadaghanang politiko..ang nakapait niya naa siyay mga panaad sa katawhan nga diin iya lang diay gigamit sa iyang kalampusan sa politika, pero karon wala gayod tagae niya ug bili aron kana pamatuman.
  Ang sa ako nalng kinsa tong politiko ang magdala ug dghan kaayuhan deri sa ato, pinaagi sa iyang inisyatibo o koneksyon sa kaulohan mao nlng gayod na ang akong tagaan ug base asa ko modapig, kay tungod nianang daghang proyekto nga mapatuman.. dili imposible pod nga modas ag ang daghang negosyo sa atong lugar, nga diin ang katawhan makapulos gayod ug trabaho o kita aron sila mahitalwas sa kalisod.

text: Gerry Espina Sr has never declared and fully accounted for his CDF in the last 12 years. I discussed this at length in my posts in 2007 in conjunction with an article published by the Center for Investigative Journalism noting Gerry Sr as one of the Congressmen who have allegedly been personally enjoying the personal comforts of the proceeds of the CDF.
