What Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP) and Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF) have in common? Do they appeal to the whole citizenry of the country? What is good and what is bad about them?
For the Filipino people, it is "pork" intended to finance the government projects through for the respective constituents of every congressman and senator.
In Aquino government, it may seem that Pork barrel gains more supporters especially in the two houses of the Philippine government, the house of representative and the house of senate. This had helped a lot of the priority projects of these honorable functionaries and solons of the country. Many towns and cities infrastructures projects like roads, bridges, sports facilities like gym,among others are realized by availing of funds from the infamous pork barrel. However, it has been abused for personal motive of those honorable politicians.
