It is time to put an end to it, by whatever means necessary. While other officials have given lip service to this obvious source of the current onion crisis, Gatchalian's proposal is the first concrete recommendation to address it. The senator said that the task force should be headed by the DA, and include the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI). This may require involving the Office of the Ombudsman, or perhaps can be added to the mandate of the proposed task force. According to data we gathered on Monday, prices of onions continue to range from P420 to P600 per kg around Metro Manila.
