Read a Piece on the Issue about Eastern Samar’s National Highway
By Ced Solidon • Oct 20th, 2008 • Category: CommentaryI was browsing the web this afternoon when I came across Elbert B. Cainday’s piece entitled ‘Road of Contention’.
It is about the row between the camp of Cong. Teodulo ‘Doloy’ Coquilla and the provincial government about the rehabilitation of Eastern Samar’s portion of the national road.
Here’s a quote from the piece:
“This is an issue that catapulted Congressman Teodulo “Doloy” Coquilla to power, this is his dilemma. Aware that he won the mandate of the people because of negligence on the part of his political opponents to keep our national roads abreast with our national economic agenda, he fought hard in the congress for the allocation of budget to fast track our road networks. Less than a year in office, budgets were appropriated, contracts were awarded and heavy equipments came rolling in to start work.”
Although I think it has loopholes in its arguments and at times puts words into the Congressman’s mouth, it’s a good read nonetheless.
