Previous post is about DOTC's approval of a grant for the development of the Marinduque Airport, the same project that the Provincial Government of Marinduque under Gov. Carmencita O. Reyes appears bent on pursuing. This is occuring inspite of prior statements already made by the DOTC and the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) confirming allocation of appropriate grants to complete the said airport. Atty. Benjo R. Buenviaje of Sta. Cruz, Marinduque made a response on the article through his facebook account.

Atty. Buenviaje serves as legal counsel on the case for Marinduque First Saturday Movers, Inc. an NGO at the forefront of moves to oppose the 'flip-flopping resolutions' issued by the Sangguniang Panlalawigan to justify the loan. Buenviaje, in his facebook account posted his comment, reproduced below with some friend-comments.
PNB had earlier given the provincial government up to December 31, 2012 to contract the said term loan for the specified amount of P300-Million or twice the SP approved amount of P300-Million. With three months before the elections in May, the loan proposal has been resurrected by the Reyes administration. In his facebook account Buenviaje states that 'the group already initiated an injunction case against the provincial government and the PNB before the Regional Trial Court of Marinduque.
"The case became even stronger when the court recently granted my motion to have the mayors of Sta. Cruz, Boac, Gasan and Buenavista be impleaded as party plaintiffs", Buenviaje stated in his post.
