Senator JV Ejercito said people should not take advantage of the situation in Visayas especially during times when victims need a helping hand to rebuild their lives.

Sen. Ejercito made this reaction as he is set to call for a Senate investigation to look into the reported overpricing of the bunkhouse project in Visayas.

“This is not the time to take advantage of the situation when Visayas is in shambles. We should all be helping to get them back on their feet rather than take advantage of their predicament,” Sen. Ejercito said.

The senator added that the victims of supertyphoon “Yolanda” need all the help they can get rather than take advantage of them.

“Wala na sigurong konsensya ang mga taong magsasamantala sa mga proyekto na kailangan sa pagbangon ng Visayas,” Sen. Ejercito added.
