Saang universe ba nabubuhay itong mga ito! Tangina!<\/p>\n
LWUA bash called \u2018insensitive\u2019
\nBY JP LOPEZ
\nTHE Local Water Utilities Administration, a government-controlled corporation, held a “lavish” feast for its 36th anniversary Wednesday night, a virtual slap on the face of half a million Filipinos victimized by storm “Ondoy” who are scrounging for relief goods.
\nPresident Arroyo arrived at 9 p.m.
\nSen. Alan Peter Cayetano said that while most celebrations have been cancelled to donate to victims of Ondoy, the move of LWUA to proceed with its anniversary is the “height of insensitivity.”
\n“Kawalanghiyaan na ito,” Cayetano said
\nA source said LWUA ordered 500 reservations for cocktails and 250 reservations for a seven-course dinner buffet from Henry\u2019s Catering Service.
\nA check with menu showed the catering cost about P200,000 (at P510++, P530++ to P610++ per head).
\nThe celebration, complete with a live band, was held at the LWUA main office on Katipunan avenue, Balara, Quezon City, which was one of the worst hit by Ondoy floods.
\nThe menu consisted of baked mussels with olive oil and garlic as appetizer, “sinigang” soup, and roast pig.
