Price matters. This applies to all items procured by the government using the money of Filipino taxpayers, regardless of administration.

But price matters even more at this time, especially if there is gross overpricing of medical supplies involving billions of pesos in public funds while millions of Filipinos are losing their jobs due to the pandemic.

If we cannot see what is wrong with that - or worse, try to divert public attention from the issue - then certainly we are a ruined nation.
