Villar pours pork barrel money to his real estate project

If this is true then what more can we say about public funds being allocated to his other personal interests when he becomes president? Nationalista Party Presidential candidate admitted to pouring public funds to his real estate projects in Iloilo. This is according to the article published only by the Daily Tribune (You wonder where the Philippine Daily Inquirer, Philippine Star, or Manila Bulletin is in this coverage).

I remember Villar saying in his political ad that if all he wants is to be rich then he would rather go back to doing business. As if to say that he would rather do public service but knowing how money from our tax goes to the pockets of politicians then I wouldn't be surprised if the good senator is double speaking. He gives us this thought that he would not enrich himself through the president's office but given how he spends our tax money for his benefit - into his Camella Homes properties - how much more can he do that when he has vast power to hide what we shouldn't know?

I fear the day that he becomes president because as a businessman - he can weave his power and put everything (judicial, military, and legislative) under his "business" command.
