Some 300 protesters march in Surigao City on August 26, 2013 to join calls for the abolition of the Priority Development Assistance Fund or pork barrel.

Surigao del Norte Rep. Francisco Matugas (1st district) and former congressman Robert Ace Barbers (2nd district) have been named as among the lawmakers that allegedly caused the release of pork barrel funds to dubious NGOS.
