No body in charge

EVEN AS the Left and the opposition were very noisily claiming that it was a prelude to the imposition of martial law, the Human Security Act (actually the anti-terrorism law) was passed in 2007. Its provisions enabled the Arroyo administration to contain terrorism.

One of the law's key features, intended to create a strong institution that is alert and capable of fighting terrorism, is the seven-member Anti-Terrorism Council. Under the law, the executive secretary serves as its chair, with the justice secretary as vice chair. The other members of the council are the secretaries of national defense, foreign affairs, interior and local government, and finance as well as the national security adviser. Executive Secretary Eduardo Ermita and even his successor who served at that post for only four months, Leandro Mendoza, convened the council every month.

Since President Aquino assumed power nearly seven months ago, Executive Secretary Paquito Ochoa has not called a single meeting of the council. Not even the warning in November by governments of the United Kingdom, Australia and the United States of an impending terrorist act in the country in November convinced Ochoa to convene the council.

Instead of ordering Ochoa to convene the council or himself calling for a meeting of the National Security Council his mother established in 1987, President Aquino preferred to insult foreign governments which issued the warning of a terrorist attack, claiming, distastefully in an APEC forum in Japan, that he "suspects" their sincerity.

Mr. Aquino even boasted that in his seven-minute meeting with US President Obama in October, he had convinced the latter to change the US government's warning of an impending terrorist attack on the Philippines. I hope Obama resists the temptation to say something sarcastic to Mr. Aquino when and if he calls to condole with the Filipino people over the attacks.

Asked by reporters in November to comment on the embassies' warnings, Philippine National Police spokesman Senior Supt. Agrimero Cruz said: "Maybe the Anti-Terrorism Council has news on that, so you better consult with the Anti-Terrorism Council."

Cruz might have been just sarcastic. The council (and Cruz would have known it) had not convened at all under the new administration, and since the secretaries of the previous administration had stepped down, it is technically non-existent. The PNP spokesman was asking reporters to consult a non-existing body.

Then in December, Mr. Aquino announced that instead of the defense secretary, the Cabinet cluster on national security would be headed by Interior Secretary Jesse Robredo. Since then Robredo has been tied up with the crime and carnapping wave that has outraged the country. Robredo has not convened the Cabinet cluster on national security.

Malacañang insiders say there is now confusion over which body should be convened following the bus bombing the other day which killed five innocent commuters: the Anti-Terrorism Council headed by the executive secretary or the national security cluster headed by Robredo. The staff of the National Intelligence Coordinating Authority who make up the secretariat of the council joke that they have been unemployed since June.

In the meantime Defense Secretary Voltaire Gazmin seems to be the type of man who takes his words very seriously. "There is no terror threat in the Philippines," he said just a month ago. Now he says that he considers the bus bombing day as a "police matter." We hope that he will transfer to the Philippine National Police command over the Armed Forces' vast network of intelligence units in the Army, Air Force and Navy as well as crack special forces units.

National Security Adviser Cesar Garcia seems so much of a spook that he is invisible.

Mr. Aquino tried to excuse his government for failing to stop the Makati attack by rhetorically asking, "How can we monitor all 6,000 buses that ply EDSA?" I do hope he wasn't serious, or we're in deep trouble.

There is no government body that is now in charge of confronting terrorism. Some businessmen even dare say that nobody is really in charge of this fledgling administration.

With five lives snuffed out and a dozen maimed by a terrorist bomb, Sen. Joker Arroyo's quip that this is an amateurish "student council" government isn't funny anymore. Not at all.

While he may think it has been forgotten, the issue over Mr. Aquino's Porsche has become viral, eroding his integrity. In response to my column last week, I still receive e-mail claiming that the Porsche actually was a 2010 model and cost at the very least P15 million, far from the P4.5 million the President claimed he bought it for.

More troubling though is that few believe that Mr. Aquino actually purchased it. They are convinced that it was actually a gift, and among those being mentioned as the generous gift-giver are: car buff Manny Dimaculangan; Robert Coyuito, owner of Porsche importer PGA cars and of Oriental Petroleum fame; a board member of the Manila Economic and Cultural Office; and a Cebuano tycoon.

To debunk these nasty allegations and for the sake of the integrity of the President, I wrote last Friday Presidential Spokesman Edwin Lacierda, his staff Kristin Basa, and Communications Secretary Ricky Carandang to ask them to reveal to the public (and not to me, if they don't want to) the Porsche's deed of sale, its LTO registration, the deed of sale of the BMW that Mr. Aquino said he had sold so that he could buy the Porsche, and the bank loan he got to augment funds he needed to buy the supercar. Their offices confirmed receipt of my letter. So far though, no reply—not even a courtesy we-will-get-back-to-you-soon note from the good secretaries. Why?

^^inxs re Anti-Terrorism Council:

there are also reports that the 'Anti-Terrorism intel-group' of former pres. arroyo were relieved and replace by pres. aquino when he assumed the office..
the credibility of the anti-terror group of the present admin is indeed questionable.. the way our president answers all the querries regarding the bus bombing is trully, unacceptable! parating naghuhugas ng kamay!

Congratulations to our President for adding another sterling piece in his growing collection: 8.5M PHP worth bullet-proof Lexus LX 570 which was reportedly given to him as a gift.

Congratulations PNoy!

Coming soon is a new Presidential plane and helicopter as told in his interview with DZRH.

Sana makatulong lahat ito sa kanyang "pang-relax while making difficult decisions as leader of the country."

manhid talaga!



Noy's new flame: P8.5-M bullet-proof Lexus car



Source: The Daily Tribune


This is the Lexus LX 570 model that P-Noy bought.
President Aquino appears to have shifted his hobby from firing pistols to collecting luxury cars after he was seen riding a bullet-proof Lexus LX 570 in visiting victims of the fatal Edsa bus bombing incident who were being treated at St. Luke's Global City Hospital.

The ritzy car is aside from a P4.5-million luxury Porsche sportscar that he justified as being purchased "third-hand."

The Palace has rejected repeated demands to show the purchase documents on the Porsche to verify the sportscar's true cost but a source had said it was a gift from a businessman which has a local Porsche dealership.

The 50-year-old bachelor said he sold his two-year old BMW and took out a personal loan to buy the Porsche, which he said allowed him a relaxing drive amid his gargantuan responsibilities.

Aquino has been reported to also have another BMW, said to have been a gift from a businessman, prior to his assumption to the presidency in June last year. The BMW reportedly has bulletproof windows and one inside the car can hear just what those outside are saying He has also been seen driving a red Lamborghini.

A car dealer said the new Aquino vehicle costs around P6.8 million and bullet proofing costs about $70,000 or around P3.5 million.

Groups criticized the new presidential hobby as "out of character". "He had campaigned against luxury cars and here he is, buying a Porsche," Milo Tanchuling, secretary general of the activist group Freedom from Debt Coalition, had said.

Also seen being driven in a mahogany top of the line Mercedes-Benz is the cash-laden DSWD secretary, Corazon "Dinky" Soliman.

Aquino, when he assumed the presidency, also ordered government agencies to refrain from buying luxury cars as service vehicles as part of government's austerity measures.

Aquino won the elections last year on an anti-corruption pledge of clean government and an end to wasteful spending that he said was the cause of widespread poverty.

Aquino has been known to take the wheel from his personal driver in the past during provincial trips, and once said he considered long drives on smooth highways as among the small luxuries he enjoys.

Speaking to reporters who had questioned him on the Porsche purchase, Aquino said there was nothing irregular in acquiring a used luxury car because the money that was paid for it did not come from government coffers.

"It is not the government that paid for it. I sold my other car and it so happened that there was a buyer and that is where I drew the payment for this (Porsche) car. And if we feel refreshed and relaxed from time to time, I guess that helps us to make decisions," Aquino said in Filipino.

But he and his aides continue to refuse to make the documents on the purchase of the Porsche public.

Aquino tested his Porsche shortly after acquiring it last Dec. 26 in a two-kilometer private race track at the Clark Freeport where Porsche owners and other race car buffs drive their toys around, according to a report.

Lacierda said he saw Aquino drive the white Porsche 2007 model during the Christmas party of the Presidential Communications Development and Strategic Planning Office. He added that the President bought that car as a Christmas present for himself.
