Pimentel. We can reap the benefits of federalism without a cha-cha, Simply substitute LGU for State in his proposal, and voila, we unearth a formula for economic development, and for freeing the country of a voracious and inept Gloria without unseating her! 20/80 sharing? Good. Excellent. So why not now? Why wait for a cha-cha? And, why share the windfall with a State when the LGU's can have it all to themselves? Some of us are afraid that LGU's will use extra funds for beautification or for lining up officials' pockets. But the State can do it too, can't they. The thing is, it is easier to train and police LGU's than States. States are unwieldy compared to LGU's which has existing operational guidelines and systems for financial checks and balances. Citizen participation is more plausible or feasible in an LGU than in a State. We want change? Let's do it now while we still can. I have good new for Sen. Pimentel.

20/80 sharing? Good. Excellent. So why not now? Why wait for a cha-cha? And, why share the windfall with a State when the LGU’s can have it all to themselves? Some of us are afraid that LGU’s will use extra funds for beautification or for lining up officials’ pockets. But the State can do it too, can’t they.

One should at least think about it on how it affects us and the next generation. If you only care about yourself and unable to go beyond yourself except sharing your own specialty of work without grasping reality then it won't matter who is wrong or right. If you can only leave your theory and technical knowledge behind and share your thoughts on this topic , it might make others to see both sides of the situation. Whether i'm right or wrong with my opinion, its' not your problem. It is me who will deal with my own embarassment not you. I can always defend myself. No hard feelings and let's move on.. KG,

a dean saying “bobo” what kind of dean is he/she?

We learn from not just from those who disagree,but also from the one who notices.I will surely learn from those exchanges, in that case, thank you for prolonging it,but enough of it, already. Just a heads up, fyi, you were dealing with a former dean of the business department of a certain university there,so she definitely knows what she is talking about,and I have to be blunt on this, and you do not know the hell you are talking about, in those exchanges. That is why I asked you if you can't stay down,at least be able to defend yourself properly. leytenian,
