Liberal Party standard bearer Mar Roxas was Secretary of the Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC), when the allegedly anomalous Metro Rail Transit-3 (MRT-3) maintenance contract was cooked up.
This bombshell came no less than from one of President Benigno Aquino’s trusted lieutenants, also a stalwart of the ruling party which is fielding Roxas in the 2016 presidential race.
Roxas has been campaigning on an anti-corruption platform and vowed to continue the “Tuwid Na Daan” (Straight Path) program of President Aquino if elected President.
