The Politics behind the Delectable "Letchon" (Roasted Pig)

FORMER PRESIDENT ARROYO AND FORMER GUV ZALDY AMPATUAN EATING ROASTED PIG WITH THEIR BARE HANDS?

'Divine wrath’ for lechon celebration at Abubakar  – For eating pork on Muslim hallowed ground, ousted President Joseph Estrada got his just desserts, as Moro clerics believe.
And that’s not the end of it.
For most Moro preachers, Estrada’s conviction was just part of the murkah (divine wrath) he would suffer for feasting on roasted pork inside an Arabic school, or Madrasah, to celebrate the fall of a rebel bastion seven years ago.
Then President Estrada and some members of his Cabinet also brought in three truckloads of beer to the supposedly sacred ground for Muslims. As beer was passed around to soldiers, some of them were inside a nearby mosque, gorging on lechon with their muddy combat boots on.(Star)
