CALAPAN CITY: After more than a year in office, the appointment of the general manager (GM) of a power cooperative in Oriental Mindoro has been finally approved by the National Electrification Administration (NEA).
Supporters of former Oriental Mindoro governor and first district congressman Rodolfo Valencia decried a news report that the Sandiganbayan will proceed with the trial of the graft and malversation charges filed against him in connection with the alleged misuse of his Priority Development Assistance Fund or pork barrel.
