Eulogio "Amang" Adona Rodriguez Sr. (born Eulogio Rodríguez y Adona; January 21, 1883 – December 9, 1964) was a Filipino politician who twice served as President of the Senate of the Philippines. He was known for vehemently confronting corruption during the administration of Carlos P. Garcia, alleging he held a list of corrupt officials close to the president which the media dubbed the "White Paper".[1][2]
[B]its of the memorandum leaked to the press, which called it the "White Paper", but the general contents were still unknown to the public.
On graft and corruption, [Manuel Manahan] said, it is not a mere opposition campaign line [for the Grand Alliance]. In fact, he added, it was Senate President Eulogio Rodriguez who authored the 'White Paper.'
