MANILA, Philippines—A former executive of the Road Board whom Sen. Miriam Defensor-Santiago wanted to be charged with plunder for the alleged misuse of billions of pesos of the road users tax owns yachts, expensive cars and luxury condominiums.

But Santiago made it clear that her bid to bring to court Rodolfo Dodi Puno, a brother of Interior Secretary Ronaldo Puno, had nothing to do with the latters tirade against her that she was allegedly pursuing a program of personal vendetta.

No. Mr. Ronnie, dont flatter yourself, the senator said in her sponsorship of Senate Resolution No. 1413, which urges the Ombudsman to prosecute Dodi Puno and other Road Board members, including former Public Works Secretary Hermogenes Ebdane, a presidential aspirant.

I am conducting an infinite vendetta against all crooks in the country, she added.

Dodi Puno could not be reached for his side as of press time. He is in the United States.

There has been bad blood between Santiago and Puno, whom she accused of being behind the cheating during the 1992 presidential election which saw Santiago losing to Fidel Ramos.

Dodi Puno served as executive director from 2005 to the first half of 2008 of the Road Board. He was succeeded by Danilo Valero, who Santiago said happened to be an assistant secretary of Ronaldo Puno at the Department of the Interior and Local Government.

Apparently angered by Dodi Punos television interview in which he claimed that Santiagos attack on him had to do with personal vendetta, the senator dared Puno to continue to attack her.

Now you can attack me about this but I will name your girlfriends so that their paramours will catch them, Santiago said in Filipino, eliciting laughter on the floor.

Santiago said Puno was a married man with children but he was courting actresses and beauty queens who were also married.

Santiago cited the Daily Tribune column of former senator Ernesto Maceda and that of Philippine Daily Inquirer columnist Ramon Tulfo on the alleged lavish lifestyle of Dodi Puno.

Maceda said in his Oct. 1 column that Puno owned two yachts, expensive cars, luxury condominiums and gives expensive parties and has been totally indiscreet in his moneyed pursuit of movie stars and beauty queens.

Maceda said Santiago was right in saying there was prima facie case of plunder against Puno as he cited Road Board records released by former Nueva Ecija Gov. Tomas Joson showing that P3 billion was released for aluminum road guards that would otherwise cost P1 billion. The project was awarded to two contractors without public bidding.

Tulfos column did not identify Dodi Puno but noted that a brother of a high government official who used to be a public servant himself bought a huge house in Boracay for P250 million.

Tulfo said the brother earned billions of pesos from motor vehicle owners when he was still in government.

The columnist also said that he saw the yacht owned by the brother at the Manila Yacht Club and noted that from the size of the yacht, it must cost him a fortune.

This man doesnt know how to hide the fruits of his corruption, Tulfo said in his Nov. 5 column.

Santiago said that a provincial administrator of Iloilo had written her in September that during Punos watch at the Road Board he had released P12 million in road projects for the municipal government of Pavia compared with the P5 million received by the Iloilo provincial government.

This prompted Santiago to say: One thing you can say about the Puno brothers, they dont allow the facts to get in the way of their ideology.

only those who are ill-thought and misorriented would want that ignorant fat ass be brought back to the office of the president. the constitution clearly prohibits reelection. besides, only people who are as dumb as as you are would want to believe that a jueteng lord who looks like he's always drunk, be president.

Kung ang pilipino nagdedesire ng matinong presidente at mga leader dapat sa sarili muna umpisahan. Kasalanan din naman ng tao kung bakit may corrupt dahil makakita lang ng pera ibebenta na ang boto. Tulad ng pandarambong, eh di ba yung batinting sa taxi para bumilis metro ay isang uri ng pandarambong at pandaraya. Timbangang kulang sa timbang sa maraming palengke sa pilipinas isa ring uri ng pandaraya. Kaya kung naghahangad ka ng malinis na gobyerno, pilipino maging malinis ka muna sa sarili mo.

bakit ba kasi ang pilipinas napapaligiran ng mga senador na wala namang alam sa batas, armed forces na inutil, pulis na kurakot, puno na sobrang corrupt. Tapos mga pilipino iboboto yung mga taong wala namang nagawa para sugpuin corruption. Kasi ang mga mangmang binoboto mga mangmang din. ano ba nmang klaseng pag iisip na iboboto pa daw yung dating presidente ng jueteng.

nancycute....Totoo yan. Hindi lang palakasan system.. This country breeds and teaches corruption to young children. Nobody to trust. It's like cancer. And the attitude of "I scracth your back and you scratch mine" defects in laws concerning accountability etc. The fact of the matter is that laws and punishments are for the poor and helpless. The rich are plundering the wealth of this country with both hands. Kawawang bansa!

HI Jeans!
It just really shakes my head when I see Filipinos driving expensive cars with a cavalcade of bodyguards front and back and honking IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. Even society magazines like TATLER showcasing the wealth of most of these thieves. Talagang wala ng moralidad. Ang nakaka-inis, sa mga newsreport, you will see sheeps of people blessing (nagmamano) to the likes of Imelda, Gloria and other politicians.

We rose against Spain, U.S., Japan & Marcos, why not the corrupt leeches?

Hi Jose Rizal! Its disgusting, isnt it? They value their expensive loot than their faces and dignity. Philippines infested with corrupt leeches. The leeches linked to crime, corruption, scandals, illegal activities, fraud etc. continue to serve this country even if their cases are filed with the Ombudsman or the courts. Their citizens in showbiz, families of same old corrupt leeches join politics to make money, to do more corruption and to leech off others. We need more honest citizens!
