Life Opinion:
Napagandang bill itong ginawa ni Miriam. Definitely maraming mag-aalmahang politicians & officials. Kasi nga naman minsan ay project pa ng dating administration then pagpinagpatuloy, sya iba na ang may credit. Maari sigurong ilagay ang Branch and date ng projects. Pero wag na yung kodakan ng Close-up smile ng mga "Epal". In the first place pera naman ng taong bayan ang ginagamit. Ok lng if from their own pocket.
Nice one Senatora!
