As always, PCC President Jun Relunia took the high road and walked away. Some may look at it as an isolated case and may choose to cut him some slack but it really is one scream too many. The new members on the PCC Board should look at the whole picture and see that there is a pattern in this man\u2019s behaviour.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Bulseco apologized a day after to Relunia and attributed his latest raised rant to \u201c<em>an oral condition which I have difficulty controlling particularly when I become passionate about a subject matter<\/em>.\u201d For one, anything that comes out of one\u2019s mouth is controlled by the mind, so therefore that is the problem. If it was indeed passion, then something good would have come out of it. It is important to note, especially for the newcomers, that this is not the first time.\u00a0 Over time, his rants and underhanded schemes have simply alienated numerous supporters.<\/p>\n<p>For Bulseco, it\u2019s all about \u201cwinning.\u201d There may be no logic and no rhyme to his arguments as long as he is \u00a0winning \u2014 and it\u2019s a game that he alone plays.<\/p>\n<table style=\"height: 36px;\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"3\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"387\" height=\"0\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>According to one source, in 2011, after the Farewell for Consul Tony Reyes, Bulseco flew into a rage. Nothing was wrong, except that it was organized voluntarily by somebody else and he had no say in it. As the former board member said:\u00a0 \u201cI have never \u00a0seen \u00a0anyone, \u00a0so \u00a0ungrateful. \u00a0The person was not even paid.\u201d\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In 2012, the mere suggestion of a supplier for the IDs and the banners for the Aquino State Visit, threw him in a fit. He will also stoop to unethical behaviour when he wants to. To remove a regular supplier\/supporter, Bulseco also showed the quotation to another supplier. And yet, for others, quotations were not even necessary. It\u2019s double standard all the way.<\/p>\n<p>For Bulseco there are two sets of rules \u2014 his and his alone. He may call on the constitution when it suits him, or\u00a0 twist the interpretation when it suits him. His reaction to the 2013 PADER fiasco was \u201c<em>the president has the right to juggle funds<\/em>\u201d. That means it\u2019s an executive decision and yet, this year, the smallest decision of the incumbent president, Jun Relunia and he is quick to respond to \u201cMay I remind you that decisions are made by the majority of the Board.<\/p>\n<p>When a letter from PADER was addressed to the Board, Bulseco was in full form and tore the letter. Unfortunately, Elsa Collado, who was on his side, chose to ignore all correspondence.<\/p>\n<p>Bulseco even sent an email to the President wanting him to warn a media person for what she has written. He claims reporting is \u201cnegative\u201d and \u201cinaccurate.\u201d He was referring to some of Benjie de Ubago\u2019s articles, specifically the article that said he resigned from PCC.\u00a0 Well he may not like it, but it is accurate and we have a copy of his email. As for Benjie, she has been a supporter of PCC since day one, but will not condone the wrong in any way.<\/p>\n<p>From 2010 to 2014, she wrote a total of 34 articles for PCC, and only 2 were negative. Also all promotional materials from 2010 to 2012 was produced free of charge, to include 7 videos.<\/p>\n<p>Bulseco\u2019s actions have been detrimental not only to PCC and the Ateneo Alumni Australia but to the community. He is a stress factor to those on the PCC Board.\u00a0 He has been in breach of the constitution in more ways than one. This latest rant is one scream too many!<\/p>\n<p>It is now time, for the 14 directors who sit on the Board to think straight and do what is right for PCC and the community.<\/p>\n<p><em>Factual errors?
