  • Clan Politics of ARMM Ampatuans, Web of Kin Warp Maguindanao Polls by Ed Lingao Philippine Center for Investigative Journalism First of Three Parts
    The clan politics of ARMM Ampatuans, web of kin warp Maguindanao polls By Ed Lingao Philippine Center for Investigative Journalism First of Three Parts DATU HOFFER, Maguindanao – This municipality is just a kilometer or so from the capitol, but it barely looks like a town. Bereft of any paved roads, it has a scattering of huts around hillsides. There is no town center, no business and commercial establishments, and the municipal hall sits alone on a hilltop – gleaming white cement and grey granite, obviously new, yet seemingly unused. There is no activity that one would associate with the governance of any regular municipality. That‟s because as far as the Department of Budget and Management (DBM) is concerned, Datu Hoffer is one of many newly minted towns of Maguindanao in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) that should not even be called a town. Datu Hoffer was created by the ARMM Regional Legislative Assembly in 2009 by virtue of Muslim Mindanao Act 220, with a population of 22,000. But DBM has refused to release any internal revenue allotment (IRA) for Datu Hoffer and nine more towns in Maguindanao because their populations fall below the 25,000 residents required by the DBM to qualify for IRA. In other words, the municipal government of Datu Hoffer gets no revenues from the national government, and has to subsist on whatever taxes or revenues it can raise by itself from the smattering of homes on the hillsides surrounding the town hall. Yet the upcoming elections will see an all-out battle among members of the Ampatuan clan over Datu Hoffer, where among the few means of livelihood is “professional evacuation,” or living off relief goods.
