HA!

I KNEW IT - when I first read that comment, the only thing I could think of re: "how?" was some political shenanigans.

Philippines is so much like that - for example, the Ayala family... corrupt as sin, but have their fingers in every aspect of philippines business and politics.

It is kinda fitting in the sense of all the corruption that made the bridge repairs take longer than I've been alive, now that it's repaired (?) there's that horrendous screen. It's like the rotten cherry pit atop the pile of turd.

But nevertheless, it is a true shame.
