The latest controversy surrounding the inept chairman of the GSIS offers a glimpse into the backroom deal-makings that occur within the corrupt Macapagal-Arroyo regime.
Some congressmen have come up with some serious allegations against GSIS boss Winston Garcia, and it is not pretty. But this bozo who heads the GSIS seems to carry so much clout with Macapagal-Arroyo so that, despite his many blunders and indiscretions, he remains in office.
Now he is pulling all stops to install his cadaverous father as speaker of the House. Whose money is he using to gain the support of lawmakers? Your guess is as good as ours.

WELCOME
Thank you for visiting AT THE END OF THE DAY, a blog dedicated to exposing the incompetence and failure of leadership at the Government Service Insurance System, the state pension fund of the Philippines. From the various links posted on this site relating to GSIS, there is a common thread running through all the ugly episodes that people have suffered in the hands of its employees: this agency is rotten to the core, starting from the chairman and president, Winston Garcia, a political appointee of Macapagal-Arroyo who pretends to be the president of the Philippines. Garcia has implemented an ill-conceived eCard program that has adversely affected the lives of tens of thousands of GSIS pensioners, and he has done nothing to make it work. Indeed, if some of his employees are behaving badly and are thumbing down their noses on the public they're supposed to serve, it just proves our point: Fish starts rotting in the head.
And for this reason, IT'S TIME FOR GARCIA TO GO. We encourage everyone to help spread awareness about the incompetence of his agency and to put pressure on the political leadership to force him to RESIGN.
We welcome feedbacks from pensioners, their relatives and friends. Send us your comments or share your sad experience at the hands of some callous and insensitive personnel at this broken Philippine bureaucracy.
