CALIFORNIA PENSIONER STILL WAITING FOR HER eCARD

Something's definitely fishy with the eCard.

My mom has just received a phone call from her sister-in-law in Anaheim, California. Tita Virgie, who was patient enough to wait for her turn at the Philippine Consulate in LA to be fingerprinted, has still to receive her eCard. It's been over a month since she enrolled in the program.

She was told she would get the eCard in the mail in three weeks.

Now the question must be asked: why are pensioners not getting what is due them in a timely fashion?

Is the delay in the release of their pension a scheme to use their money elsewhere in the meantime? Like funding the election bid of the administration's senatorial bets?

Just asking.
