I have written this line as a comment to one article about how to remove Mayor Dan Lim, but some friends here in Tubag Bohol have encouraged me to put this as one new topic for discussion. So here it is. Please tell me what you think of this opinion or suspicion or indignation...
How true is the story circulating around the city that Mayor Lim has tens of millions of Intelligence Funds but has never met the City Peace and Order Council? and has not given share to the City PNP office? It was the Provincial PNP team who ran after the bandits who robbed the Bank of Commerce, except when ex Mayor Dumaluan called in to have the wounded escapee captured while in his resort. But why was Mayor Lim acting as if he were the hero when the first member of the gang was captured? He showed himself being interviewed about the capture, went on the air to make pronouncements, asked the police to have the accused come to his office, and all the media hype his spinners could muster were done.
I was dining with a friend tonight and later another friend (not common to my friend with whom I am dining with) came to join us. I was surprised at their opinions telling me that Mayor Lim is considered the Illegal Gambling Lord of the Province of Bohol. This is why the City PNP has very low morale.
Help!!! I am greatly disturbed... please tell me these issues are not true or tell me to understand why people believe these issues and why these are circulating around the good people of Tagbilaran City.
What can you say about this buddies?
In the May 2007 city mayorial election, this allegation was scattered on air by Joe Torralba's camp. Dan Lim's political foes said they have evidence (on record) that millions of intelligence funds allegedly went to wrong directions.
Being a journalist I have to see yet the physical piece of evidence (paper documents) before I can formulate my stand on this issue.
The problem with our people is that they would only drop a mind-blasting expose/issue during an election period. Anyone who becomes target of an issue, whether true or untrue, would simply respond: "This is an election propaganda!"
It would make a really big difference in our society if our concerned citizens would unleash an expose on times that election is far from people's stream of consciousness.
