NATION Reporma spox denies Lacson’s withdrawal of candidacy in 2022 polls

  NATION  Reporma spox denies Lacson’s withdrawal of candidacy in 2022 polls

    

    MANILA, Philippines — Partido Reporma spokesperson Ashley Acedillo on Sunday warned of a misinformation campaign alleging that Senator Panfilo Lacson “has or is withdrawing his candidacy” for president in the 2022 polls.

    “Nothing could be further from the truth. On the contrary, the Lacson-Sotto tandem has been full speed ahead and has only been growing from strength to strength,” Acedillo said in a statement.

    “As the filing of candidacies nears, so is the desperation of the ill-prepared, tentative, or the unwilling candidates. And this latest misinformation campaign just proves that,” he added.

    Lacson, who sits as the chairman of Partido Reporma, and his running mate Senate President Vicente Sotto III have been laying the groundwork since they launched their candidacies on September 8, Acedillo said.

    He claimed that they are the “most prepared and the most capable” to lead the country among those running for president and vice president.

    Acedillo likewise said that the tandem and their respective parties “have already mobilized the combined strength of their alliance to secure their bases of support,” noting that the latest Partido Reporma event in Davao del Norte had over 200 party members taking their oaths of membership and showed support to Lacson and Sotto.

Lacson Spokesperson Warns Of Fake News

 Lacson Spokesperson Warns Of Fake News

September 26, 2021

[Refer to Ashley Acedillo, Partido Reporma Spokesperson]

    There is an ongoing misinformation campaign claiming allegedly that Senator Panfilo Lacson has or is withdrawing his candidacy for President in the May 2022 elections.

    Nothing could be further from the truth.

    On the contrary, the Lacson-Sotto tandem has been full speed ahead and has only been growing from strength to strength.

    After launching their respective candidacies for President and Vice President on September 8, 2021, both putative candidates have been laying the groundwork and have demonstrated, this early, that among those running for the top two highest elected positions of the land, they are the most prepared and the most capable to lead this country.

    The latest Partido Reporma event in Tagum City, Davao del Norte where Party Chairman Ping Lacson and his running mate, Senate President Vicente “Tito” Sotto III were present, saw more than two hundred party members taking their oaths of membership and expressing their solid support to the tandem in behalf of the entire province.

    While the others are still deciding whether or not to run, or hurriedly negotiating for their runningmates, or worse, still, looking for a party to run under, Senators Lacson and Sotto and their respective parties have already mobilized the combined strength of their alliance to secure their bases of support.

    As the filing of candidacies nears, so is the desperation of the ill-prepared, tentative, or the unwilling candidates. And this latest misinformation campaign just proves that.

Lacson: Pharmally Bagged 26.39% of P42B Contracts with PS-DBM

Lacson: Pharmally Bagged 26.39% of P42B Contracts with PS-DBM

September 24, 2021

September 24, 2021 - Pharmally Pharmaceuticals Corp. bagged more than one-fourth of some P42 billion in contracts with the Department of Budget Procurement Service (PS-DBM) for medical supplies to address the COVID-19 pandemic, Sen. Panfilo M . Lacson bared Friday.

Lacson cited DBM documents indicating that of 45 suppliers, Pharmally grabbed 26.39 percent of the P42 billion transferred by the Department of Health to the PS-DBM.

"Out of 44 other suppliers, Pharmally ang No. 1, and you bagged 26.39% of the P42 billion transferred by DOH to the PS-DBM even with a P625,000 initial capitalization," Lacson told Pharmally Director Linconn Ong at the Senate hearing on the matter.

"We’d like to find out from PS-DBM. Ito ba ang kultura sa PS-DBM, ang bulk more than 26% of contracts napunta sa Pharmally? Or this is unusual? Or this is very special (Is this the culture in PS-DBM to award the bulk of contracts to Pharmally? Is this unusual or is this very special)?" he added.

Lacson also questioned why officials of Pharmally would buy expensive luxury vehicles after bagging the first contract.

Other businessmen would have reinvested their money into their business if they made a huge profit, instead of going on a buying spree, he added.

Earlier, Lacson extracted a confession from Pharmally employee Krizle Mago after she admitted she acted on instructions from higher management in having a warehouseman remove the "Expired" labels dated 2020 from face masks, and replace them with 2021 as the new expiry date.

Mago also admitted upon further questioning from Lacson that she acted on orders from Pharmally treasurer Mohit Dargani.

"Who ordered you to give the instruction to the warehouseman to remove the label? I suppose it was not on your own initiative you gave that instruction?" Lacson told Mago, who replied she received the instructions from Dargani.

Mago also admitted she was instructed by higher management to exchange emails with the Department of Budget and Management Procurement Service (PS-DBM) even after Pharmally already delivered overpriced surgical masks "ordered" by the PS-DBM.

"Why did you respond to the PS-DBM's email when the day before, you already delivered what was asked of your company? What was the purpose of sending the response?" Lacson asked.

Lacson also questioned Tigerphil Marketing Corp., from where Pharmally sourced its face masks, how it netted P21.51 million in sales to Pharmally in 2020 when its audited financial statement for 2020 showed it only declared an income of P3.479 million.

Tigerphil president Albert Sy admitted they have paid P553,886.88 in amended tax returns today - well after the Senate started its hearings.

"If the Blue Ribbon Committee did not conduct the hearing, would you pay the amended tax returns?" Lacson remarked, adding Tigerphil's payment showed the Senate hearings did lead to positive results.

"Maski papano, nagbayad. So hindi totoong walang nangyayari sa pagdinig nating ito (Tigerphil paid after all, so it's not true that nothing comes out of the Senate hearings)," he added.

Meanwhile, Lacson also questioned how Tigerphil managed to contact Green Trends, from which it sourced its face masks, when Green Trends has a fictitious address.

Lacson also threatened to have Pharmally Director Linconn Ong transferred to the Pasay City Jail after Ong remained evasive in his answers.

He noted Ong had claimed they sold at a high price because of a scarcity of supply, yet Pharmally managed to deliver medical supplies to the PS-DBM in under three hours.

"Pag patuloy nagsisinungaling si Mr. Ong, the committee might decide to transfer him to Pasay City Jail instead of enjoying life in the Senate," he said.

Lacson to DOH Chief: Uproot 'Syndicate' Behind P841M Ambulance Overprice

Lacson to DOH Chief: Uproot 'Syndicate' Behind P841M Ambulance Overprice

September 24, 2021

September 24, 2021 - The Philippine government easily lost some P841 million in the purchase of ambulances that were found overpriced by P1 million each, Sen. Panfilo M. Lacson said Friday.

Lacson said such overpricing may involve a deeply rooted "syndicate" in the Department of Health, even as he challenged DOH Secretary Francisco Duque III to uproot this syndicate.

Such a syndicate also appears to be behind the recurring overstocking of expired and near-expiry medicines amounting to P2.736 billion, including P2.2 billion in 2019 alone.

"Entrenched ang sindikato kasi nariyan ang overpricing. Yan gusto namin matingnan ninyo nang maayos para ma-uproot ang sindikato sa loob ng department. Pre-pandemic at during the pandemic, parang hindi nagbabago ang pagbili ng expired medicines at overpricing (It seems this syndicate involved in overpricing is entrenched in the DOH. We need you to look into this to uproot this syndicate, which has been operating pre-pandemic and during the pandemic)," he said at the Senate hearing on the purchase of overpriced medical supplies to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic.

"Sana gawan ninyo ng paraan para ma-uproot, ma-expose at mahinto ang sindikato sa DOH (We are asking you to take proper action to uproot, expose and stop this syndicate)," he added.

For his part, Duque replied, "Yes Sir, sisiguraduhin kong matutukan ito (Yes Sir, I'll make sure to look into this)."

Upon Lacson's questioning, Duque said the DOH procured and distributed 841 ambulances under the Health Facilities Enhancement Program (HFEP) for 2019 and 2020.

Lacson said records showed each ambulance procured by the DOH cost some P2.5 million including automated external defibrillators (AEDs), though some of the ambulances the DOH distributed to the CALABARZON area were without the AEDs.

But one local government unit that planned to procure an ambulance with similar specifications found that it cost only P1.5 million.

Lacson said ambulances procured by the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office cost P1.585 million, while those procured by the private sector cost P1.650 million.

"Bakit ang layo ng diprensya ng presyo kung DOH bumibili compared sa ibang entities (Why is there a big difference when it comes to the DOH)?" he asked.

"Isa lang ang ma-conclude namin dito. Pag may overpricing di ba may kumikita (We can arrive at only one conclusion. If there is overpricing, is it not true that someone is making a profit)?" he added.
