?Funny, fishy?: Tomas on LRT | Sun.Star Network Online
"Osmeņa did not endorse and accept the “overpriced” lampposts and is the only mayor not included in the ongoing cases."
-all other mayors that were involved were capitol allies, do the math!
“I have very strong reservations with the way the LRT is being maneuvered…. I heard there is a deadline, Oct. 24. That means the money should come out before the elections. I’m not stupid. I’m very sensitive to this matter,” he said.
-projects that are done with this motive in mind are usually done in a half-baked manner and/or abandoned.
“The City Government of Cebu has no objection whatsoever, to the kind of urban mass transport system that the DOTC may implement in Cebu City, be it rail-based or road-based, for as long as it will address the much-needed and very long overdue urban mass transport needs of this city, and for as long as it is at no cost to the city government,” Mamondiong quoted the mayor in his letter.
-Tomas doesn't want to be involved in a very possible lamp post, CICC or Balili-gate scandal.
On another note, city hall's "think tank" are a far cry from capitol's. WHY? because they hired young and bright individuals from top caliber schools which ARE NOT RELATED to the mayor. i hope capitol could say the same.
