Garcia said Emphasis's continuous involvement in partisan politics is uncalled on the basis that he is an appointed government official.

                    [Summary] => The New People's Army (NPA) rebels are reportedly raking in P15 to 20 million a month from what they call as "revolutionary taxes" paid by Cebu businessmen.


This was bared yesterday by the Cebu Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCCI), which reiterated its stand condemning the extortion activities of the rebels.


Govenor Gwendolyn Garcia, who is pushing the all-out war against the rebels, has assured the business community of protection, which shall be provided for by the police and the Armed Forces of the Philippines.

                    [Title] => Emphasis' statement irks Capitol consultant
                    [Summary] => Capitol consultant Pablo John Garcia is asking Information and Communication Technology commissioner Elberto Emphasis to stop meddling with the political issues in Cebu.


Garcia said Emphasis's continuous involvement in partisan politics is uncalled on the basis that he is an appointed government official.


Emphasis has claimed that he was commissioned by President Arroyo to win back fourth district Rep. Clavel Martinez's support after Martinez became a signatory to the impeachment complaint the Opposition had filed in Congress.

                    [Summary] => Governor Gwendolyn Garcia's camp vows to continue its offensive against fourth district Rep. Clavel Asas-Martinez despite calls by Lakas spokesperson Elberto Emphasis to stop the bickerings.
Capitol consultant Pablo John Garcia said they do not recognize Emphasis as having the authority to call for a ceasefire.
"Who is he? Who is this character named Emphasis? Who is he to the leaders of Cebu who have been elected? Who is he to make such a call?" Pablo John asked.
Pablo John said Emphasis should rethink on whether he has the moral ascendancy to order leaders of Cebu to shut up.
