Noynoy Guilty of SCTEX issue?!

Alleged anomalies in the construction of the Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEx) that traverses the Cojuangco-owned Hacienda Luisita are much more controversial than the C5 issue hounding Senator Manuel Villar Jr., a congressman said Tuesday.At the resumption of the House Oversight committee hearing's inquiry into the issue, Cavite Rep. Jesus Crispin Remulla—a member of Villar's Nacionalista Party (NP)—said the national government paid P100 per square meter for the right of way of SCTEx to parts of the 600-hectare sugar plantation, when the actual value was only P8. "This is bigger," Remulla said when asked to compare the SCTEx to the C5 controversy hounding Villar.

Aquino, however, has long dismissed allegations linking him to the SCTEx controversy as politically-motivated, saying he had nothing to do with the SCTEx project as it was initiated during the Estrada administration.
