Sen. Panfilo Lacson said an undersecretary has been allegedly using public funds to put up 'at least 2 troll farms' in every province in the Philippines for a still undetermined purpose.
MANILA - Sen. Panfilo Lacson on Tuesday said an undersecretary has been using public funds to put up "at least 2 troll farms" in every province in the Philippines for a still undetermined purpose.
"Ang nakausap niya isang dati kong tauhan. Ni-report sa amin. Sabi niya, 'Nag-decline ako... Nag-oorganize sila sa bawat probinsya ng troll farm,'" he said.But he said he was certain that the official is "using the resources of government," but was unsure if the illegal project is "sanctioned by Malacañang."
Lacson, meanwhile, said that he would be open to coalesce with smaller political parties should he decide to vie for the presidency next year. "Comparatively speaking, it’s pretty cheap compared to a TV ad. For some of them it's actually a cheaper buy," media expert Jonathan Ong said in an earlier interview.
