BULL’S HIT

BAGUIO CITY -- As I write this column, all is set for the opening of Casa Vallejo Hotel in Baguio this month. This property has been a subject of controversy when reports came out that this was allegedly sold to a private entity by the city government of Baguio despite an earlier plan to save it as one of our heritage sites.
Whether true or not, it is but proper for the city officials particularly the city mayor to issue an official public statement to deny or affirm the reports, and explain why the renovation and development was seemingly not made public, and even its opening is exclusively for the few.
Lo and behold, if concerned officials continue to behave as if they know nothing, the public would start asking what’s real, and I bet they would not be able to explain the stench of smell of a done deal if there is!
I have been calling the attention of the honorable officials to shed light on this Casa Vallejo issue but it seems they are too busy to answer or are there some reasons why? Is there some cashsunduan for them to set aside this Casha Vallejo issue?
Could this be another Forbes Park scandal in the making wherein the “heroes” are trying hard in their acrobatics to please the public?
They are now trying to cure the wound that they should have prevented earlier. Hay yay yay! Where have all the good men gone? Happy Casha Vallejo hotel opening! Welcome to Baguio Atienza and Bagatsing! Ano say ninyo Meyor Bautista at ex-DENR Boss Peñafiel? Happy?

The Baguio City Government through the Alay sa Kalinisan committee conducted a cleanliness drive by flushing out dirt at the city market evening of Feb. 24. The committee representatives like the sanitary department heads and staff were there and they were assisted by the Baguio City Fire Department and public order and safety office division personnel.
It was not clear however of how many drums of water were consumed in this cleanliness drive. However it makes one wonder why they made the flushing at this time when we have a water crisis.
Nonetheless, I would like to commend Mrs. Alu Meneses of the Alay sa Kalinisan for her unending efforts to save Baguio from being called a dirty city. I could witness how this civic minded woman exercised her social responsibility as a Baguio citizen -- from garbage problems, barangay assessments and evaluation to cleanliness drives and so forth. To Mrs. Alu Meneses a two hands salute to you from this column!

How true is it that that this top official of the city buildings and architecture department is applying for a promotion and vying for a high position at CEPMO? If this is true, I will place my last centavo bet that she could not get what she wants for the reason that she is now in hot water for charges filed against her by a woman whom she allegedly violated of her rights and due process.
I suggest that this lady who is trying hard to be “macho” be transferred to the city hail to guard the inmates who are really siga, and let us see how far she could be arrogant. Baka maging tunay na siyang babae this time! Hehe!
