Happy Birthday, Dr. Minguita Padilla!

Happy birthday to this eye doctor and a wonderful human being whose passion to serve (unfortunately) is not being reciprocated with the same amount of passion by the same people she wants to selflessly help.

Her name: Ma. Dominga “Minguita” Padilla.

On the SC Petition vs the P89.9B Realigned PhilHealth ‘Excess’ Funds

Image: Inquirer.net

I hope the SC petition vs the realigned P89.9B PhilHealth “excess” funds has emphasized to assail the congressional insertion in the Special Provision under the Unprogrammed Fund of the GAA, thus amending RA 7875 (Health Insurance Act) a Special Law as amended by RA 10606, further amended by the UHC Law (RA 11223).

Every lawmaker knows that the Special Law must be taken as intended to constitute an exception to, or a qualification of, the general act like the GAA.

Needless to say, a general law cannot amend a special law.
