Corruption Plagues Ondoy Donations to DSWD

Someone I know posted a link to a blog post about what's happening to donations that were sent to DSWD for distribution to victims of the recent killer typhoons Ondoy and Pepeng, and just a few days ago, Ramil.

This really pissed me off. In this time of need, when a lot of our countrymen are in desperate need for food, or anything to get them by the day after the killer typhoons destroyed their shelter and their lives, the government and its officials still had the guts to take advantage of the situation.

Please read and check out the photos on the blog post below:

The original poster took those photos while they were volunteering at DSWD. I'm not really sure why the donations had to go through DSWD when they could've just been sent directly to Philippine Red Cross. Apparently, it was a directive from the President herself. I bet there were millions of donations that were coursed through DSWD that we won't even see or hear of. Sheesh!

If you check the blog post I mentioned, you'd know that there are tons of donations still with DSWD that haven't been packed and distributed yet to hundreds of our countrymen who need them. Why? Wala daw volunteers. Dammit. Have you seen the amount of people who volunteered to help Philippine Red Cross pack and distribute donations?!? And DSWD can't get a decent amount of volunteers to help them?!

Geez. What the hell is wrong with these people?!?! Do they really have to stoop this low and steal these donations away from those who need them?!? Where did their conscience go?!?

I can't believe this, really. And it pisses me off big time. I really believe in karma so ang Diyos na ang bahala sa kanila.

Please spread the word. Let everyone know about what's going on with the donations to DSWD.
