                    [Summary] => 

Para sa kapakanan ng taumbayan, nais malaman ng party list group na Association of Philippine Electric Cooperatives (APEC) kung saan napupunta ang Universal Charge na kabilang sa singil sa kuryente.


Ang mga gumagamit ng kuryente ay nagbabayad ng UC sa halagang dalawang sentimos sa bawat kilowatt hour na konsumo kada-buwan alinsunod sa Electricity and Power Industry Reform Act.


Kung may 11 milyong kabahayan umano ang nagbabayad ng UC bukod pa sa mga commercial at industrial establishment, umaabot na nga sa bilyun-bilyong piso ang nakokolekta ng pamahalaan dito.

It could be ideological or something more down to earth like pecuniary interest. Most of the time, as in 99.99 percent, it is pecuniary disguised as ideological. Let us look at two examples, one from George W. Bush and the other from Ate Glo.

                    [Summary] => 

Para sa kapakanan ng taumbayan, nais malaman ng party list group na Association of Philippine Electric Cooperatives (APEC) kung saan napupunta ang Universal Charge na kabilang sa singil sa kuryente.


Ang mga gumagamit ng kuryente ay nagbabayad ng UC sa halagang dalawang sentimos sa bawat kilowatt hour na konsumo kada-buwan alinsunod sa Electricity and Power Industry Reform Act.


Kung may 11 milyong kabahayan umano ang nagbabayad ng UC bukod pa sa mga commercial at industrial establishment, umaabot na nga sa bilyun-bilyong piso ang nakokolekta ng pamahalaan dito.

                    [Summary] => You can’t use logic if you want to understand how politicians think. You must read between the lines to figure out personal motives and agenda. It could be ideological or something more down to earth like pecuniary interest. Most of the time, as in 99.99 percent, it is pecuniary disguised as ideological. Let us look at two examples, one from George W. Bush and the other from Ate Glo.
