Now that the Maharlika fund bill is waiting for the president's signature. Was curious what c/Philippines think of it in general. Personally I don't support it, it feels like we sign on something very sketchy it has pork barrel-ish feel to it. I feel concern for the banks e.g. Landbank who will be forced to invest which risk government employees source of salary. I don't understand why they want it now, when we are debt ridden.
Support ba kayo sa Maharlika Fund? Thoughts?

Di ba magiinvest ka o magtatake ka ng risks kapag may sobra kang pera? Di ba dami pa nga nating utang?
And the people who are pushing or voted for this cannot even explain their reasons confidently. Ang bilis pang ipinasa.
With shady leaders, how can we support something like this?
