Subic new haven for robbers

"SUBIC Bay Freeport — The rise in burglary cases here has alarmed investors and restaurant owners.

The latest victim was the Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority- Treasury Department. Unidentified men broke into the SBMA building and carted away P 1.8 million in cash and checks over the weekend.... the loot was supposedto be deposited in a bank last Monday..."
Ummm... who would leave that much cash over the weekend? Over a million bucks and the office wasn't guarded? No primary suspects? Inside job?

Oh and lastly, was there a spate of government officials vacationing at Subic at the time?
