If the alleged illegal reclamation activities on the Taguig City side of Laguna Lake had not been exposed, would Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano still be “hoping” that the allegations of illegally titled properties in the area are true so the government could stand to gain from the land?

Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson raised this question Monday after Cayetano claimed over the weekend that the parcels of allegedly illegally reclaimed land, including an 18-hectare property, could go to the government.
