Philippine Pork Barrel Scam

Tony La Viña's thoughts on PDAF as culled from Rappler. One particular paragraph is worthy of note which i quote: "Indeed, it is relevant to ask the question: If we were to abolish the PDAF, where will all that money go? Can we trust Manila-based bureaucrats to decide what projects to develop and implement everywhere in the Philippines? Will that not make matters even less transparent and more corruption prone?"
