MANILA (Updated 12 p.m.) -- Former Senior Government Officials (FSGO) expressed their loss of confidence on the President and questioned her moral authority to govern because of her uncooperative stance in finding the truth behind the controversial national broadband deal.
The FSGO also disputed the Arroyo government's claim that the economy is gaining momentum saying, " Mrs. Arroyo's economy is just a "power point mirage", good for presentations in airconditioned conference rooms but false and fake to ordinary Filipinos struggling to make a living."
