And how about that questionable 6 million in Russia? Any followups? Is the PNP leadership waiting for the public's interest to die down or wane before they finally do something to recover the money?
There must be some closure on this issue. Why?
It has eroded the trust and confidence of the people. Institutions of authority should at least enjoy a measure or two of trust before people can finally say that they're safe. How would you feel safe in a country where the very Institutions that are supposed to protect you and your property are themselves, looting it and partaking of the illegal stuff?
Truly, we are now in a situation where we are being administered by a Bantay-Salakay gang. We pay our taxes. We satisfy our dues to society and the State. Yet, those who act and serve as our supposed "vanguards", are themselves, looting and abusing public trust.
More than the money, what they destroyed is the very fabric of our morality, ethics and the most important pillar of nation-building--public trust. If these officials in government already destroyed public trust, what's the use of having a public office?
