Central Azucarera de Tarlac’s statement regarding Villar’s press release
ProPinoy.com
ProPinoy was able to reach Alfredo Laurente, the president of CATLU (Central Azucarera de Tarlac) and former Barangay Captain of Bgy Central. His statement is below, transcribed from a quick phone conversation. Disclaimer: Propinoy does not endorse any presidential candidate. We are just sharing what Mr Laurente said.
“Ako po ang pangkasalukuyang presidente ng CATLU, lahat ng ganyan [press releases, statements, etc], dadaan sa akin. Wala kaming alam diyan.
“Hindi iyan totoo. Tutulungan namin si Sen Aquino, 100% suportado kami sa kanya. Kaya bakit namin sasabihin iyan [na suportado nila si Sen Villar, ayon kay Bayan Muna Rep. Teodoro Casino].
“Sino ba si Casino? Hindi iyan tiga-2nd district ng Tarlac [kung nasaan ang Hacienda Luisita]. Ano ang alam niya? Dito kami napanganak at lumaki. Malaki ang utang ng loob namin sa mga Cojuangco, at sa mga Aquino, mabuting pamilya iyan. Kung may kilala sa kanila, kami iyon. Pulitika lang iyan, sira-siraan. Dito sa Hacienda, hindi naman nakikialam [ang mga Aquino].
“Kawawa naman ang mga Aquino at Cojuangco. Madalas silang dyinadyaryo, eh hindi naman totoo. Mabuti talaga silang pamilya. Kami ang may kilala sa kanila, kami dapat ang ipasalita.
“Wala pong katotohanan ang press release na iyan. Baka may nagsasalita diyan, pero hindi kami iyan. Personal opinyon siguro iyan, pero huwag namang sasabihin na iyan ang kagustuhan namin, o kagustuhan ng madla. Ang majority sa amin suportado kay Sen Noynoy 100%, kaya hinding hindi namin sasabihin iyan. Wala kaming ibinibintang sa pamilya nila.
“Bakit kami lilipat sa hindi namin kilala [Sen Villar, ayon sa "press release"], na walang ginawa para sa amin? Sana ikinumpirma muna naman nila kung iyon talaga ang sinasabi namin.”
"I am determined to continue the fight started by my father and my mother to see
that democracy takes root and is strengthened in our country. This cannot happen
in a government that serves the interest of the powerful few. We must strengthen
the institutions of government so that they truly serve the interests of our people."

This is really true, this is what exactly what I know inside HCL. The only people who were complaining ad rallying were the Leftist, headed by these Ocampo, Masa and Casino. Directed, organised and orchestrated by Bilyar.

Villar and his camp are liars. They are trying to deceive the filipinos with lies. Look at the Philippine Star or Star Ngayon issue. They clamed that 300 LP’s trasferred to NP led by Roger Patanao and Mercedez Atupan who are Governatiorial and Vice Governatorial candidates respectively. But these candidates are Independent candidates and not LP members.Look at the Comelec list of candidates for Agusan del Norte.

who kamo???? iam from agusan del norte and mind you guys… yun dalawang names na nabanggit are not in anyway with the LP… and for sure walang mapupuntahang upuan yan dalawang yan come election day!
ang pag kakaalam ko, the villars (mr&ms) was wishing to get someone here in agusan so as for them to penetrate the area. unfortunately they were told by their friend/s that if they could not get so and so (political clans) here in agusan “WAG NALANG!”…..
kaya cgro sa kagustohang pumasok ni money villar dito sa agusan,sumanib nalang kung kanikanino at bahala nalang c pera kumilos…..
kasinungalingan nalang pinakikilos para lang mapasok sa eksena…
