MANILA - A lawyer on Wednesday said the Department of Justice-led mega task force against corruption is a welcome development.

“Mas mabuti pa yan kaysa magpa-file ng false charges, red- tagging, mga kalokohang charges. Nawe-waste lang ng oras nila doon. Ito, napakahalagang problema,” said Constitutional law professor Antonio La Viña.

“I welcome this prioritization ni Pangulong Duterte sa corruption kasi matindi talaga sa alam ko,” La Viña said on ABS-CBN"s TeleRadyo.“Better late than never. Sana ito na lang muna gawin nila. Mag-focus sila dito at magkaroon tayo ng malalaking isda,” La Viña said. These are the embattled state insurer PhilHealth, the "usual suspects" Bureau of Customs and Bureau of Internal Revenue, the Land Registration Authority, and the Department of Public Works and Highways.

He also suggested that the task force keep a short of list of people to be investigated and it should go after “mega people”.
