August 13, 1996 Ph Daily Inquirer headlines MNLF violence in Zamboanga and pork barrel thievery

The legend of Sharon Cuneta’s P10 million Kiko challenge!

Without a doubt, a lot of people would gladly do it for free. But ten million pesos to prove Senator Francisco “Kiko” Pangilinan stole from his pork barrel fund?

“Froth and Bubble”, “Toil and Trouble”
