Noy-Mar vs Noy-bi, proxy war of Hyatt 10 vs Kamag-anak Inc

Fe Zamora’s story “Inside story: Hyatt 10 vs Kamag-anak Inc.” has elicited two columns from Conrad de Quiros. Conrad’s columns also elicited reaction from John Nery, which elicited another reaction from Conrad.

I’m wondering, where is Noynoy Aquino in all these conflicting operations within his campaign?

I’m providing the links to all the articles. Have a glimpse of the Aquino presidency.



1.Inside story: Hyatt 10 vs Kamag-anak Inc.

By Fe Zamora

The fight between the “Noy-Mar” and “Noy-Bi” advocates has been traced to the rivalry between the Hyatt 10 and groups identified with the so-called Kamag-anak Inc. of ex-Tarlac Rep. Jose Cojuangco, the Philippine Daily Inquirer has learned from sources in the camp of presidential front-runner Sen. Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III.

The “Noy-Bi” tandem of Aquino for president and Makati Mayor Jejomar Binay for vice president was purportedly fielded to derail the “Noy-Mar” tandem of Aquino and Sen. Manuel “Mar” Roxas II, which was seen as “not good” for Cojuangco and his allies, the sources said.

Pastor “Boy” Saycon, who is Cojuangco’s colleague in the Council for Philippine Affairs (Copa), which was pushing for the “Noy-Bi” tandem, denied Cojuangco’s involvement. “Peping is out of this,” Saycon said.

The so-called Kamag-anak Inc. refers to the relatives of Aquino who were allegedly involved in corrupt activities that tainted the administration of his mother, Cory Aquino, from 1986 to 1992.


2.Quite another story (part I)

by Conrado de Quiros

The rift was never between the Kamag-anak Inc. and the Hyatt 10. From the start, the rift was between the reformist volunteer groups and the trapo political party.

The political party went beyond the Liberal Party. It consisted of, one, the Liberal Party itself, represented by Mar Roxas and Butch Abad, last seen before Cory died and Noynoy became the presidential bet busily organizing the “Mar for President” campaign and getting nowhere. Two, the “Hyatt 10,” represented by Cesar Purisima and Dinky Soliman, last seen the eve before Cory asked GMA to resign in the wake of “Hello Garci” singing fervently in support of GMA “If We Hold On Together,” in lieu of “Ring around the rosie/ A pocketful of posies/ Ashes! Ashes!/We all fall down!” They too, showing a horrendous sense of entitlement instead of a shameful show of contrition, were last seen before Cory died and Noynoy became the presidential bet busily organizing the “Mar for President” campaign and getting nowhere. Three, “The Firm,” represented by Nonong Cruz, last seen before Cory died and Noynoy became the presidential bet busily organizing the “Mar for President” campaign and getting nowhere.

3.Quite another story (part 2)

by Conrad de Quiros

Which brings us finally to who abandoned whom.

Mar would say at the end that the reason he stumbled was that he devoted time and energy coming to Noynoy’s aid when he was down. That is all very well, except for a couple of things.

4. Uncharitable, unkind

by John Nery

The facts will out, at least I hope, but in the meantime we are left with a truly vexing puzzle: How can the champions of Edsa end up on the same side as a certain kind of trapo?

5. That is it

by Conrad de Quiros

Not quite incidentally, by volunteers I do not mean Dinky Soliman, who presumed to call the shots for them. The volunteers volunteered not because of Dinky Soliman but in spite of Dinky Soliman. She did not animate them, she dispirited them. She did not call the shots for them, she shot them.

“Should we categorize the maneuverings of a Peping Cojuangco under the pleasing rubric of ‘volunteer group’?”

Who says we should? The Peping camp never figured in the rift until much later, but only in a fringe way, only in a marginal way, only in a way that added insult to the injury. Only Dinky and her group say otherwise. Dinky’s Kamaganak vs. Hyatt 10 proposition is not just misleading, it is devious. Unless corrected, she and her group can always depict any effort to bypass them, or criticize them, or indict them as an effort by the “corrupt” to thwart the “reformists.” Like I said the last time, no way in hell they are the reformists. The volunteers are.

While at that, what exactly were/are “the maneuverings of a Peping Cojuangco”? That’s innuendo. Facts, please.

    Akala ko ba solid ang Liberal Party? Paano yan sosulusyunan ni President Noynoy pag nakaupo na sya sa Malacanang? Mas marami pa rin ang NoyMar supporter kaya mahihirapan si President Noynoy dahil sa Kamag-anak INC.

  2. Lurker Lurker

    I really feel for Noy. He hasn’t even been officially proclaimed president, and yet, he is already beset by so many problems and inundated by tons of unsolicited advice.

    Now, here’s the newest kink: the alleged electronic Garci…wattalife!

    Just hoping that he’s able to do what’s right. He should also be reminded that he can’t please everybody. He just has to do what HE thinks is the best for the country that’s pinning so much hope on him.

    Kung totoong nagkakagulo ang mga Hyatt 10 at Kamag-anak, Inc. upang makontrol ang gabinete, aba’y mahiya naman sila!

    Puro na lang pansarili ang iniisip ng mga ‘yan gayung sila rin ang naging dahilan kaya nagkakaganito tayo mula pa noong panahon ni Tita Cory hanggang sa inagaw at ninakaw na gobyerno ni gloria.

    Kung pagbabago ang tunay na layunin ni Noynoy sa kanyang administrasyon, dapat lamang na huwag siyang magtalaga ng kahit sino mula sa magkabilang kampo.

    ‘Daming mga mas magagaling na mga bata pa sa mga civil service eligibles at career professionals na hindi nabibigyan ng pagkakataon o ‘yun mga tinengga ng mga nakaraang administrasyong ang pawang sinunod ay mga may lahing bubuyog at mga ipinaglihi sa vacuum cleaner.

    By this time, tuwang-tuwa na si Gloria sa nakikita nya. Old rule: Divide and conquer.

    ‘Yung iba nangangamkam ng lupa upang pagkakitaan. Pati ba naman sementeryo katulad nang ginawa ni Villar sa Alabang, hindi pa nila patawarin?

    Ang mayayamang asendero, bakit hindi magawang mamahagi ng ilang loteng pagtitirikan ng sisilungan ng mga walang tirahan?

    GAME OVER na si gma
    GAME TIME naman ni Noynoy
    siyam na taong kalbaryo kay gloria
    anim na taong pag-asang pinakaaasam
    kumilos na ang tadhana
    nagkaisa mga mamamayan
    mula sa kadiliman
    liwanag ngayon ay nasisilayan
    laganap pa rin ang kabuktutan
    bagama’t mayroon nang bagong pamunuan
    ngayon at higit kailanman
    kailangan ng bayan ang lahat ng tulong ng mamamayan
    ang pagtulong kay Noynoy ay pagtulong rin sa bayan
    tuloy ang laban

    I share the same sentiments of De Quiros.
    Thank you Ellen for exposing in the other thread yung mga ginawa ng The Firm. Many of us did not know the extent of their activities.
    Kaya nga, we pray that soon to be President Noynoy will have his eyes open and be aware of the dangers being presented by the 3 groups De Quiros mentioned: 1. Hyatt 10 2. The Firm 3. LP (including Drilon, Mar, Abad, Pangilinan, etc)
    We all want change for the better but these three groups only have vested self-interests.

  10. sychitpin sychitpin

    In his first month in office , Pres Noynoy could dismiss and file charges against corrupt high ranking gov’t officials and corrupt judges, to show his determination and sincerity about his campaign promise against corruption…

    No coups under new Aquino gov’t, says AFP

    Maj. Gen. Gaudencio Pangilinan, chief of the military’s Task Force HOPE (Honest, Orderly and Peaceful Elections) and AFP Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations, said military adventurism in the AFP is a thing of the past. He added that that those who were involved in past coups have been punished for their actions.

    He knew what he was up against when he finally decided to run as president. If he was not, then we have another disaster waiting on the sidelines.

    Except for gloria whose motives to rule was to PLUNDER the national coffers and leave with a scorched earth, all leaders are expected to to do their utmost best to aver calculated decisions on issues based on imperfect informations. The presidency, as Noynoy should know, is not an OJT.

    Slightly out of topic:

    HEADLINE: “GMA turns down calls to run for Speaker”

    Does this sound familiar, or what ?

    Ten years ago, she vowed not to run for the presidency. And then what happened ?

    Now she is at it again. Hold on to your butts, folks. We have not seen the last of Gloria yet.

    Like the red-skins say, “she speak with forked tounge”.

    Buti pa para kay Noy noy ay mag retreat uli at magpapasalamat sa Dios at humigi ng tulong…kung nangailangan siya ng dasal noon mas lalo niyang kailangan ang dasal…at dapat sa atin ay tulungan siya at ipagdrasal natin siya…we can start now if you have not started yet…he needs our prayers more than ever for the good of our country..dapat ang ating bansa ay lumapit sa Dios more than ever…I suppose Gloria’s tuta means well in giving their advices pero manahimik na lang muna sila..let us give Noynoy and Gloria our prayers for the good of the country…ipagdasal ang ating bayan…hindi naman mahirap kausapin ang Dios, hindi ba?

    lahat ng nangyayaring iyan puro haka haka. ultimo yang kung sino sa anong posisyon. ako isa ang tiyak ko, hindi lahat ng pangalang nagsusulputan ay siya ring ilalagay sa puwesto.

    naniniwala pa rin ako na si noynoy ay gagawin ang tama at hindi paiimpluwensiya sa iba’t ibang grupong nais lamang makabalik sa puwesto.

    huwag naman natin siyang husgahan agad. let him prove himself. we are not even giving him the 100 days honeymoon period

  17. Tedanz Tedanz

    Buti na lang talo si Erap … kung hindi …. magagalit din ako sa kanya pag hindi niya ako ipuwesto sa administrasyon niya ….. wahahahahahahaah!!!!!!
    Alanganin namang si Pareng Henry ang gawin niya na Depens Sekretary na alam ko namang maka-Noynoy siya. lol

    Ganyan lang po kasimple ang problema niyo … kaya tumahimik na kayo sa inyong mga haka-haka. Hayaan lang muna natin si Noynoy. Oki ….

  18. Tedanz Tedanz

    Pakiramdam ko Pareng Henry … inu-umpisahan na nila ang atake sa manok mo ….. isa na diyan si Escudero …. na may ambisyon din sa 2016. Pumuporma na si pungay ang mata na akala mo kung magsalita ka-galing niya ala-ey.

  19. tru blue tru blue

    #15 well said. Elitists, opportunists, voltures, and snakes along with few good ones are rollled into one jockeying for a front seat in Noynoy’s cabinet. Whatever is being said in the airwaves and print media are all meritless, therefore it’s better to save those tirades and incendiary remarks until the names of who is who in his executive branch are identified.

    Even if you are anti-Noynoy, being a cynical bellwether is counter-productive at this point. Most are haka-haka, antayin ang listahin muna.

  20. Bonifacio Bonifacio

    Was Noynoy aware of these infighting and betrayal of Mar? Did he do anything about it?

  21. Mike Mike

    # 21, Bonifacio:

    Naku po, siguro naman alam niya yon kasi kung hindi eh ang tang… naman niya. Ang tingin ko pinuproblema na rin niya ngayon ang dalawang grupong ito. Ang tanong, saan o kanino siya kakampi? Kung sa akin lang, huwag nalang niya pansinin ang mga magugulong yan. Look elsewhere… huwag lang sa direksyon ni Gloria ha!!! Ibang usapan na yan!!! 😛

    Gustong magpasikat para mapansin ni Aquino.

    Si Boygee ang pinaka makapal na ass licker sa AFP.

    Btw, kilala din yan sigurado ni Henry (kung PMA ’90 si Henry because si Boygee ang exec asst ni ATE when the late ATE was PMA superintendent.)

    Doon pa lang sa PMA, 2nd lt pa lang yan noon, sipsip na to powers that be to get his pocket lined up with dollars… 🙂

    #25:He reiterates that it was the reformist volunteers against the trapo political party (previously listed as 1. LP, 2. Hyatt 10, and 3. The Firm) and not Kamaganak Inc vs Hyatt 10 as some people would like to project it (to suit their purposes).

    Ha! Ha! Ha! Peping Cojuangco and wife Tingting Cojuangco , who up to now works for the Arroyo government, while campaigning for Noynoy, are “reformists.” Binay is “reformist”.

    Matagal-tagal na rin akong hindi nakapag-comment dito. At nagmamasid lang ngunit hindi ko mapigilan matawa.

    Yan na pala ang bagong meaning ng “reformist” ngayon.

  26. balweg balweg

    re: Ha! Ha! Ha! Peping Cojuangco and wife Tingting Cojuangco , who up to now works for the Arroyo government, while campaigning for Noynoy, are “reformists.”

    SEE…ibig sabihin Igan Gabriela ginagawa tayong tanga nga mga damuhong na yan? Ngayon, magmamalinis sila na sila ang may moral authority upang patakbuhin ang Pinas…yaks, dapat sa kanila bigyan ng leksyon ng matauhan.

    Ang hirap sa Noypi e kabilis makalimot…alam nang bawat isa kung sinu-sino ang hudas at nang hudas sa ating Saligang batas at 11 milyong Noypi pero ano ngayon….heto ibinoto pa ang mga ipokritong yan?

    At magmamalaki na sila daw ang mga oposisyon ngayon…nang maglunsad ng Oakwood at MAKATIPEN e nasaan sila, di ba todo-suporta kay gloria. Ngayon e palalabasin na sila daw KOREK at may karapatang pamunuan ang bansa.

    Ang kakapal ng apog…di rin natin masisisi ang mga kumag na yan kasi ang dami pang Noypi ang walang bait sa sarili, matapalan lang ng PISO heto at ibebenta ang boto o kaya maging sunod-sunuran sa mga ipokritong pulitiko na pahirap sa bayan.

    Pinaglalaruan lamang tayo sa kanilang palad…after all pag nakuha na nila ang gusto nila e belat na tayo.

  27. Naunahan mo ako, Gabs. De Quiros is on the wrong page. Confined inside his small box yet he thinks he has seen everything. The so-called “rift” was not a problem for Noynoy at all. He was a runaway winner. It was the problem of Mar.

    When Noynoy’s numbers started to plunge and then recovers permanently, he gives credit to the reformist volunteers while he blames the LP trapos, the Hyatt 10, and Kamaganak Inc. for the big downslide. We all know that it was black prop that dealt Villar the fatal blows, especially the tag “Villarroyo” or Gloria’s secret candidate. Who was responsible for it? The “reformists” he says? It is now “reform” to engage in mudslinging?

    So Chiz Escudero aided by erstwhile campaign manager Lito Banayo and Serge Osmeña are suddenly Noynoy’s campaign saviors. The former, directly discrediting a future presidential opponent by endorsing Binay whose numbers at the time have not even surpassed Mar’s. Mar has served 2 past presidents well, did a good job in enticing big foreign conglomerates to set up their HQs here at the same time silently worked to bring down the cost of popular drugs. No taint of corruption, and here is De Quiros’ reformists endorsing a known corrupt mayor.

    While the LP Trapos as he calls them, and the Hyatt 10 worked for a Noynoy-Mar which was the only right thing to do after they stabbed Roxas in the back, Conrad exalts the other side who dumped Roxas, the reformist volunteers, he says.

    That is how he defines “reformist”?

    He ought to have his head examined.

  28. Conrad has to dig deeper than the camp intramurals. He should ask himself why many mayors including those from MM had Gibo-Binay, Noynoy-Binay, and Villar-Binay on their official party sample ballots. And as confirmed to me personally by Mar’s campaign manager (Chito G), it was the same “across the country”, he said.

    What was in it for them to junk their own party’s VP candidate in favor of a corrupt mayor of a small city? Something sinister? Who funded it? Big Pharma getting back at Roxas for the billions they lost in the cheaper meds law? Escudero’s “ninongs” and “ninang” collecting payback?

    FG Mike Arroyo is again weaving his powerful web. He is putting at least 15 billion pesos for his Plan A-Plan B scenario.
    If you remember, Noynoy Aquino said before the election that if he loses the presidential election, then there is cheating involved. So FG’s think-tank thought of using a reverse scheme. They manipulated the automated election in such a way that their local candidates (Congressman, governors, etc.) would win, but also make Noynoy win. It was done in the provinces of Pangasinan, Isabela, Pampanga, Bulacan, Rizal, Laguna, Cebu, Iloilo, Samar, Lanao del Sur, Cagayan de Oro, some parts of Metro Manila and the ARMM. It covered around 6.3 million + votes. In the presidential tally, the votes were taken from Estrada, Villanueva, Gordon and transfered to Aquino.
    This is Plan A: FG made Noynoy win. He wants to have a compromise agreement with Noynoy, which he could not do with Estrada, and it has become mathematically impossible to accomplish the plan to make Villar or Teodoro to win. Since the cheating favors Noynoy, the latter is estop from eventualities.
    In all the 5 powerful groups within LP, FG has a man scheming and trying to bargain in FG’s behalf. The Plan A compromise is this: 1. A case will be filed against GMA and his family but the case will just drag for 6 years without resolution. 2. At least 4 of FG’s men will be posted on Noynoy’s cabinet, most specifically in the Justice Department.

    Ay ewan, for the first time nalabuan ako sa masterpiece ni de Quiros. Bastam ang klaro sa akin ay ang issue na “Villarroyo” did Money in. Was it Banayo who coined the term?

    Ang intramurals sa inner circle ni Noynoy ay problema niya, basta tuparin niya ang mga pangakong binitawan sa campaign trail dahil mas importante yan para sa ordinaryong botantes.
