The chairman of the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board was suspended because of the allegations of Jefferson Tumbado about corruption in the LTFRB, hurled in a press conference last Monday.

Tumbado, the former head executive assistant of suspended LTFRB chief Teofilo Guadiz III, also insinuated that the payoffs, amounting to P5 million per approval of a franchise application, transport route or special permit, reached all the way up to Transport Secretary Jaime Bautista and Malacañang. Bautista has slammed the allegation.

The National Bureau of Investigation, on its own initiative, has launched a probe into the allegations of Tumbado. His recantation will be part of the NBI’s probe, according to the Department of Justice. It pays to push back abusers, no matter how moneyed. That’s how a Makati City barangay won against an invasion of fake vote registrants.

Two Filipinos have been confirmed killed as Hamas militants stormed into Israeli villages close to the border, slaughtering on sight. We might find more casualties as the fog of war lifts.
