But of course, the Supreme Court will not change their view about this issue. For sure, they made a careful study before they released their decision. It is the problem of the President if he can’t accept it. The public is asking, why P-Noy is still pushing DAP although his administration became controversial because of this? Is it true that the Filipino people are benefiting from it or is it just his allies?

He also said that this was just a excess or saving fund of the government and they want it to use for emergency like what they did when they used the funds to relocate informal settlers. The President compared DAP to a motorist who is parked in an area which is a no parking zone. Is it wrong, if he don’t follow the rules, if he wants to save lives of other people?

But in an airport, this is very rare scenario. What’s the problem, the CR itself because it was already overused or because of lack of proper management? Why they don’t call the service of a siphoning company like Malabanan if they already knew that the septic tank was already full?   At least, it was not exploded like what happened to Glorieta in Makati.
