A former colleague of Rommel Ynion who goes by the nickname J.O. (somebody told Adobo Ilonggo this might be one guy named Junep Ocampo) emailed Adobo Ilonggo this week and said that aside from jueteng and smuggling, Rommel Ynion actually amassed his “wealth” by doing “Black PR”. As he climbed the career ladder of PR, he met certain big businessmen who noticed his talent for lying and penchant for deception. And so, they hired him to destroy the businesses of their competitors that Rommel Ynion did through many nefarious strategies and activities that resulted into the death of the businesses of the competitors.
Ynion’s reputation for this type of Black PR began to grow far and wide that it reached all the way to the camp of master manipulators and liar extraordinaires Mike Arroyo, Ephraim Genuino and Ernest Villareal. They were extremely pleased with this brash Ilonggo called Rommel Ynion and trusted him with their jueteng operations – all P400 million of it, except that in the current state of things, this Ynion got drunk with his “temporal power” from buying the Iloilo media that he could no longer think straight.
He bribed Iloilo Gov. Arthur Defensor several millions to legalize jueteng in Iloilo province. That didn’t pan out when Board Member Curging Tirador snitched on the arrangements. Ynion tried to get garbage contracts with the Iloilo City government through his bogus Green Zone Corp. until it was discovered that the proposal was grossly disadvantageous to the city and had no track record to get by. And then the Ilonggos wised up and dug up information on him where it was discovered that he is no tycoon, and that his businesses had no permits and that he himself is wanted by the BIR for unexplained wealth. Ynion’s own evil reputation is catching up on him.
And again, the saddest part is that no one is taking up the cudgels for him. You know your true friends when you are in trouble and they side with you. Adobo Ilonggo wonders where are all the people to who Rommel Ynion gave cars, jewelry and money. Aren‘t they going to take up the cudgels for their “benefactor?” Poor Bong Tortola and Genterola – they are left holding Rommel Ynion’s empty bag of promises.
