Six Bukidnon State University (BSU) external campuses were ordered closed after they were found remiss of the basic requirement to operate an educational institution, a Commission on Higher Education Department official said on Tuesday.
“Government is fooling the students and the people when [President Benigno Aquino] said that government has no more fund for education, when he just distributed it to his political supporters,” said Arian Jane Ramos, Alyansa ng mga Aktibong Kabataan sa UP Mindanao (ANAK UP Min).
“It is not the job of congressmen to impose and implement projects such as scholarships; rather these belong to the CHED and DOH,” said Kenneth Renegado, a scholar of the Gabriela Partylist, who is also the president of the USEP League of Class Mayors.
“We want our money back. Re-channel the money to government agencies since the sole task of the legislative body of the government is just to create laws and we don’t need to transfer our addresses to the other districts just to win a scholarship from a congressman.” said Mariel Moralde, spokesperson of Anakbayan.
(ACT Teachers Partylist Rep.) Tinio assailed President Aquino’s priorities as he said that while “there’s more money for pork barrel, nothing is allocated for salary increase of teachers.” He said government could not talk of success in education without giving decent salaries for teachers.
