What? La Nuestra Señora de Patarasak suddenly seeing the light and now is leading the signature campaign to erase the Ginharian Water District (GWD) off the map?
I had promised to stop writing unflattering commentaries on La Nuestra Señora de Pararasak after he personally approached me, shook my hand and asked me to be his friend, instead of as target of my comments.
In fairness to him, he got out of his way and for more than three months, I held my peace hoping he would mend his ways. Even the Great Union who hosted a media gathering at his house when yours truly and La Nuestra Señora crossed path, was happy that yours truly and La Nuestra Señora de Patarasak came to terms right under his roof.
But I am constrained to break my word. In the first place, he left me no choice. He was the first to break his unwritten one. I had agreed to stop hitting him on the premise that he changed his ways. But he never did that nor kept his word.
His initiative to have a signature campaign in the kingdom to abolish the GWD misses the mark. I would have left him that way with the assurance that his move is doomed to fail after all, only Congress, not him can blot GWD out of existence. But, I am apprehensive that no matter how idiotic and stupid his premises might be, he would still have his way because power is now in the hands of h is cabal.
His cabal comprises a pack of moneyed and powerful people determined to privatize the GWD so to reap for themselves superprofits from selling a commodity that only nature can provide, that is, water and the corporation that taxpayers had established since 1920.
KWD can only supply water to 20 percent of households in the Kingdom by the Lunok, now temporarily by the Mall because Datu Sarip Awak, then the king, did not bother to build a new palace during his 9-year reign but instead, contented renting the whole floor of the Mall for “millions” of reasons.
It has been that way and will still be in the future because the government corporation is sick. It is sick because of a virus. It is sick and needs immediate medication but Nuestra Señora de Patarasak is just so determined to privatize it that he shamelessly commits acts meant to kill it.
You have a sick child but instead of curing it, you would rather hire one to kill it, instead of the virus causing the ailment?
That’s what exactly what La Nuestra Señora de Patarasak did. Instead of kicking the butts of the members of the board of directors, he launched a signature campaign meant to obliterate the GWD off the map.
The virus is the directorate comprising of wealthy people who prefer to consider public welfare and transparency as the least of their priority. Behind the virus, este, directorate is Datu Manhangin, a radio mogul whose name is cursed not only by his employees but even by his siblings for his inordinate greed.
Behind the virus, este, board, is Kung Hei Fatchoy, the overweight, tripled-chin bureaucrat whose only legacyin the kingdom is constructing the Hole of Injustice which is so graft laden that his first move after returning to parliament was to allot a huge budget to repaint it so to cover up the long and huge cracks arround it. The make-up merely proves suspicion that that the edifice is graft laden and substandard, so overpriced that even the whole log-size leg of Kung Hei Fatchoy can fit into these cracks.
They aim to privatize the GWD and reap super-profits. To do that, the virus, este, the directorate, advocated policies primarily intended to kill the patient instead of the virus.
Virus Jarden owes the GWD some 300,000 in unpaid water bills and still refuses to pay it the last three years yet he still has the gall to declare that the culprit is the manager Haymilee, who as manager, has no choice but confine his decisions on the policies laid down by the virus, err, directorate.
