For someone whose heart is in the right place, Erap Estrada is a bit on the “ditz” side of things. Erap may not be the sharpest tool in the shed, affiliating himself with the masa whom he loves and who adores him, but there’s the audacity of the man to build on an agenda of vindication. In an Inquirer.net report, it is only Erap who favors the legalization of jueteng:
- Erap wants to legalize jueteng, but does not tolerate it.
- Erap favors the use of jueteng as a form of alternative employment for the poor.
So much for empowerment?
