is this Trillanes hidden agenda?
MANILA -- MalacaƱang said its refusal to release the P100 million worth pork barrel projects of Senator Antonio Trillanes IV might have been one of the reasons the Magdalo leader staged the Peninsula standoff last November 29.
"While Trillanes was staging a coup d'etat, he was also trying to take advantage of this government by requesting the release of funds from the Department of Budget and Management (DBM). You could see how the fellow thinks. He thinks he could toy around with this government. While he is trying to topple this government he is also trying to demand funds from this government," he said.
Apostol further said Trillanes should not be trusted and that the rebellion case against him is justified.
Suspicion
He said the government did not release the funds for Trillanes's projects on suspicion that he will use it to destabilize the government.
"He's asking funds for allegedly certain projects but we have doubts if it will be used for projects because he has different agenda. So it's intended to finance his own agenda," Apostol said.
