IN FOCUS: UP profs wear sablay to oppose pork barrel

Faculty members from various colleges in UP Diliman wore the sablay Friday to call for the abolition of the Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF), also known as the pork barrel.

The call was made amidst what came to be known as the Pork Barrel Scandal involving members of the Congress. Twenty-eight senators and representatives were reportedly found to be giving their pork barrel funds to bogus non-government organizations.
