What went wrong with Gloria’s fight against poverty? Poor governance and massive graft and corruption in her government sunk the country to drain.
Written by IBON Media
President Gloria Arroyo may indeed be the most corrupt president the country has ever had, based on amounts lost to the Filipino people in just six corruption scandals over her seven years in office.
The six scandals, which include the fertilizer fund scam, the Jose Pidal bank accounts, the Northrail project, the IMPSA power plant project, the poll automation project and the Macapagal Boulevard project, have collectively cost the Filipino people some P7.3 billion pesos.
These amounts could have been used to provide badly-needed education and health services to millions of impoverished Filipinos.
