2016 elections in Batangas City slowly turning out to be one big family affair?

A very disturbing political development in Batangas City: the doctor is a political genius! Kristine, how could you??? Details tonight....

Ito po ang pauna kong “tickler” o pangiliti. UNA, sinadya ko upang makatawag pansin sa mga kinauukulan. Baka sakali may mag-boluntaryo ng paglilinaw.

PANGALAWA, upang mapulsuhan ko kung may mga interesado sa isyu (marami nga, sa dami ng nagpahayag ng interes, publicly or by private messages or texts).

As it turned out, some people get angry, some were worried, and others are glad someone is watching. Others turn their anger on me.

Ngayon pag-usapan na po  natin, and how I got all the information:

This is supposed to be confidential. But since I am deeply alarmed, I think that as concerned citizens and voters, we have the right to know.

According to my very reliable sources, “an alliance between Kristine and Doc Jun was forged conducted under Fr. Daks' lead.” (Looks like it has the blessing of the Archbishop).

“Di ko alam kung paano tatanggapin ng mga anti dynasty proponents considering na si Danber will run for Congress. Kasama yun sa agreement,” adds my mole.

“The "unity meeting" was between the supposedly opposition politicians & the Berberabe group. It started Aug. 19 followed by 2 other meetings the last one was held last night (Oct. 7),” says another mole.

“Kristine will run for Mayor and Doc Jun as vice… which I find undemocratic”, commented another.

“Doon masama ang loob ko. We could have had the chance to introduce "new politics" if we had stuck to the original plan which is Kristine/Lito tandem. (Now) We're back to trapo set-up,” said another.

“Si Joe T. ang insistent sa alliance using Joey, his son, as his emissary. Kasi ang offer ay tatakbong "bokal" si Joe T. at hindi palalabanan ng mga Berberabe,” texted by another.

I sought Kristine’s comment but she declined because she felt I already prejudged her.

Now my humble take:

WE WANT AN EXPLANATION, from all concerned, and please answer the following questions:

1.     Will Jun Berberabe, under this setup turn his back on his uncle, the Mayor and publicly declare that?

2.     Is his joining forces with the supposedly real opposition because he is also anti-dynasty, or so he will conveniently win the vice mayoralty (again)?

3.     Who stands to benefit from this setup – the anti-dynasty movement or the Berberabes, paving a way for another dynasty?

4.     If the intention is just to ensure the end of the Dimacuha dynasty, Kristine and Carlito Bisa can win hands down. So why the alliance? What for? Who brokered it?

5.     Did practical reasons prevail over the ideal, because idealism has no more room in this modern time? This should be for the broker clergy to explain.

I challenge you all to provide us with answers and we will not hesitate to support you. As politicians and leaders, you are not immune from public scrutiny. So please bear with me, and all of us who believe that under a democracy, WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW!
