PAGCOR Spent 1 Billion Pesos for Coffee - Says Pnoy

The current President, Benigno Aquino III revealed in his second State of the Nation Address (SONA) that the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) spent 1 billion pesos for coffee during Arroyo administration.


Quoted from his speech, Pnoy said:

"Ang totoo nga po, marami pang kalokohan ang nahalungkat natin sa PAGCOR. Isang bilyong piso po ang ginastos ng dating pamunuan ng ahensya para sa kape. Sa isang daang piso na lang po kada tasa, lalabas na nakakonsumo sila ng 10 milyong tasa. Baka po kahit ngayong iba na ang pamunuan ng PAGCOR ay dilat na dilat pa rin ang mga mata ng ga umiinom ng kapeng ito. Hanapin nga po natin sila at itatanong ko, nakakatulog pa po ba kayo?"

Efraim Genuino was the former head of PAGCOR.

    That's about as bad as in the US when they subcontract things so much that things like a $10 hammer ends up costing about $700. I'm sure that some of that money was used to pad the pockets of everyone involved there.
