Recently, the Commission on Audit raised questions on the hiring of consultants by the Akbayan-led National Anti-Poverty Commission. NAPC is chaired by Akbayan’s Joel Rocamora. We have previously alleged that Akbayan is no longer marginalized and underrepresented due to its many positions in government. NAPC seems to validate this. We have also raised questions as to the use of government funds and resources to promote Akbayan as a party. The summary of the COA report can be found here.
Here are the NAPC Consultants as of 2012. Find any familiar names?
