Senators disagree over whether Congress should grant President Benigno Aquino III special powers to deal with the power crisis in Mindanao.

Senator Panfilo Lacson claimed he heard the President himself say during a party hosted by Cavite Representative Ayong Maliksi that the administration “is already addressing the problem” that Mr. Aquino blamed on “decades of neglect, including failure to upgrade very old and obsolete equipment.”
“I bet those who are proposing such special powers don’t even have an idea of what powers they are talking about,” Lacson said.
