Did Drilon have anything to do with Maynilad, Manila Water contracts?

Bakit po binanatan ni Pangulong Duterte si Senator Franklin Drilon tungkol sa “onerous, lopsided and grossly disadvantageous contracts” ni pinasok ng Ramos adminstration sa pagitan ng gobyerno at ng Maynilad at Manila Water?

Nangyari po ang pirmahan sa mga kontrata noong 1997.

Drilon was already a senator of the Republic.

However, the paperwork for the water concessionaire contracts began in 1993.

At the time, Drilon was still DOJ Secretary.

May kinalaman ba si Drilon?

Palagay ko po, meron.

Kasi hindi naman siya pepektosan ni Pres. Duterte kung wala itong kinalaman.

Noong buwan ng Abril, nagbigay si Drilon ng warning kay Pangulong Duterte na huwag paki-alaman ang mga kontrata na pinasok ng gobyerno sa mga nakaraang taon.

At the time, the President had already vented his anger at the lopsided, onerous and disadvantageous contracts.

Was Drilon being so defensive?

Parang takot siya na baka mabuksan ang mga mabahong sekreto.
