Sabotaging Iloilo Airport

YRONG-YRONG - Datu Saripada Agwak is head over heels again waxing pathetically at the giant strides the Iloilo International Airport would make if that prime jewel goes to private hands. 

There are two conglomerates, one of which is Villar’s, eyeing to privatize it. At present, the airport, dubbed the prettiest outside Metro Manila, is publicly owned.

Datu Agwak need not look far at the effects of that animal called privatization. 

Government privatized the water utility in Manila: the net effect is water no longer fit for consumption and at heftier price at that.

Government privatized the National Power Corporation (NAPOCOR) and Petron: what we got is electricity and fuel prices shooting beyond outer space.

In Yrong-Yrong, the Metro Iloilo Water District (MIWD) decided to privatize itself, the better word is de-fanged by letting the pilfered wealth of bloody dictator Soeharto in, some P2 billion of it, and let the distribution and billing power on the lap of the new animal called Metro Pacific Iloilo Water District, Inc.

Result of the MIWD-MPIWD cabal? Water getting pricier and scarcer. That we experience today, right in our neighborhood. Since 11 am yesterday, the taps are dry. Lucky we are this morning because our stored water still has enough to cook our breakfast.

Unluckily, there’s none to wash dishes.

Destruction means privatization, you querk, Datu Saripada Agwak!
