Miriam Defensor-Santiago said yesterday that if the Senate were to be abolished by July, the government could save over P1 billion each year — a total of over P5 billion until 2010, the end of the term of the 12 senators elected in 2004.

"Certain senators formally announced their rejection of the pork barrel, because at that time its announcement was trumpeted in the media," Santiago said. "If a senator wants to save the country some P200 million per year, then logically that senator would want to save the country over P1 billion a year."
