LATEST PERSECUTION OF GMA!

This is MALICIOUS PERSECUTION to the max.

Former Energy Secretary Jose Rene Almendras has CATEGORICALLY DECLARED that supposedly anomalous releases from the Malampaya Fund all lead to former President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo (GMA), since the release of the money needs the imprimatur of the President.

I won’t say that GMA is innocent. But in fairness to her, think about these, all of you, including PNoy’s supporters:

In the abs-cbnnews.com story wherein he was quoted, Almendras DID NOT CITE ANY PROOF that GMA knew that the fund releases were anomalous, and still approved these.

Almendras DID NOT REVEAL ANY EVIDENCE that GMA enriched herself from the fund releases.

Except for a supposed foundation which allegedly got money from the government but did not distribute these to the beneficiaries, Almendras DID NOT POINT OUT ANYTHING which has been PROVEN BEYOND REASONABLE DOUBT AS A SCAM.

The side of the foundation's officials have not been obtained yet but the story was the lead in the story.

I’m  NOT SAYING that the foundation is innocent.

In the abs-cbnnews story, Almendras said billions of pesos were spent during the Arroyo Administration on unspecified projects of the departments of Public Works and Highways, Agriculture (DA), Science and Technology, Finance, Interior and Local Government and National Defense.

But he didn’t say that the supposed expenditures were ANOMALOUS. Neither did he cite any evidence to prove this.

In fact, Almendras WEAKENED his own case.

Almendras said under the law, the Malampaya fund must be used for energy-related projects, but it also authorizes the President to use it on any project he or she wishes to finance.

He also admitted that the Commission on Audit has already started its probe on the various projects listed as beneficiaries of the Malampaya Fund.

Therefore, NOTHING YET has been proven anomalous on the supposed use of the fund on non-energy projects.  So WHAT IS THE PROBLEM?  Why cite it to media in the first place?

Almendras said the DA obtained more than P5.8 billion for unspecified projects. But HE DID NOT GIVE ANY DETAILS, as in none, to prove that the projects were unspecified, or that the release, and use, of the money was UNLAWFUL.

Suma total. KAHIT WALA PANG EBIDENSIYA, IBIGAY AGAD SA MEDIA  basta puwedeng isabit si GMA.

Sa magalit o matuwa ang mga pro-PNoy, GANIYAN KAAGRABYADO SI GMA sa Gobyernong Aquino. Kumontra na ang gustong kumontra. Siguruhin lang na MAY LAMAN O DETALYE ang argumento ninyo. 30
