Catapang Jr.: Detach BJMP from the ILG and make BJMP as a bureau. asr-003529 02:00:27.340 --> 02:00:34.060 BuCor Director General Gregorio Pio P. Catapang Jr.: Initially as a bureau, and then when the time comes that really we can merge these two. asr-003530 02:00:34.080 --> 02:00:39.940 Senator Panfilo Lacson: BJMP is effectively a bureau under the DILG, just like the PNP and the BFP, di ba? asr-003531 02:00:40.380 --> 02:00:41.200 BuCor Director General Gregorio Pio P.

Catapang Jr.: And also BJMP. asr-003535 02:00:57.340 --> 02:01:04.400 BuCor Director General Gregorio Pio P. Catapang Jr.: Can have a sunset review by our good secretary to really how to merge this. asr-003536 02:01:05.560 --> 02:01:13.560 BuCor Director General Gregorio Pio P. Catapang Jr.: Because in other countries, it's a unified penology and correctional system. asr-003537 02:01:13.940 --> 02:01:16.900 BuCor Director General Gregorio Pio P. Catapang Jr.: And they call it the Bureau of Correctional Services. asr-003538 02:01:18.180 --> 02:01:20.020 BuCor Director General Gregorio Pio P. Catapang Jr.: So, in the future, it will be merged. asr-003539 02:01:21.280 --> 02:01:26.820 DOJ Secretary Fredderick A.

Vida: From the DILG to the DOJ. asr-003541 02:01:29.880 --> 02:01:31.540 DOJ Secretary Fredderick A. Vida: Then that will pave the way for that. asr-003542 02:01:31.680 --> 02:01:37.480 DOJ Secretary Fredderick A. Vida: Especially with the residual powers of the President. asr-003543 02:01:38.740 --> 02:01:42.620 DOJ Secretary Fredderick A. Vida: I think legally, no need for a new law for that. asr-003544 02:01:45.240 --> 02:01:47.520 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: Senator Ping and Secretary Vida. asr-003545 02:01:48.620 --> 02:01:50.220 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: An executive order will do. asr-003546 02:01:51.000 --> 02:01:52.420 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: Under the administrative code. asr-003547 02:01:52.420 --> 02:01:55.180 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: Actually, we did that under President Aquino's time. asr-003548 02:01:55.560 --> 02:01:57.320 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: We took away the NFA. asr-003549 02:01:57.340 --> 02:01:59.340 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: The NIA. asr-003550 02:01:59.980 --> 02:02:05.200 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: The Pesticide and Fertilizer Authority. asr-003551 02:02:05.760 --> 02:02:07.480 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: And the Philippine Coconut Authority. asr-003552 02:02:07.700 --> 02:02:10.660 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: We took it all away from the Department of Agriculture. asr-003553 02:02:11.120 --> 02:02:12.980 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: And put it under the office of the President. asr-003554 02:02:13.800 --> 02:02:15.540 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: By way of executive order. asr-003555 02:02:16.120 --> 02:02:22.740 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: So, an executive order can now transfer the BJMP from the DILG. asr-003556 02:02:23.400 --> 02:02:25.440 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: Unless there is a law. asr-003557 02:02:25.520 --> 02:02:26.320 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: But I don't think so. asr-003558 02:02:26.320 --> 02:02:27.320 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: The law is. asr-003559 02:02:27.360 --> 02:02:28.380 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: The administrative code. asr-003560 02:02:29.420 --> 02:02:29.820 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: Correct? asr-003561 02:02:29.820 --> 02:02:36.140 DOJ Secretary Fredderick A.

Yusek Bernardo testified as to the amounts that were turned over to Yusek, asr-004445 02:47:17.320 --> 02:47:19.120 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: to Secretary Bonoan. asr-004446 02:47:23.120 --> 02:47:29.480 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: And ang alam ko, mas malaki dito sa 1.841 million. asr-004447 02:47:30.000 --> 02:47:33.080 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: So far na restitute. asr-004448 02:47:34.060 --> 02:47:39.020 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: How are you moving forward with that in that regard? asr-004449 02:47:39.600 --> 02:47:41.140 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: I mean, how do you reconcile that? asr-004450 02:47:41.400 --> 02:47:45.740 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: I know it's not in the law, but if there was a testimony to that effect, asr-004451 02:47:46.580 --> 02:47:56.500 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: and under oath, and a figure was, how do you call it, identified, asr-004452 02:47:56.500 --> 02:48:00.960 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: in the context of the figures that you have restituted? asr-004453 02:48:01.160 --> 02:48:09.640 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: Well, how do you decide that, okay, ito yung sinasabing dinilibre sa kanya, porsyento, asr-004454 02:48:10.640 --> 02:48:13.400 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: 15% ba for every year? Can we get the data? asr-004455 02:48:13.400 --> 02:48:14.920 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: ... asr-004456 02:48:15.640 --> 02:48:17.180 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: 15% every year. asr-004457 02:48:17.440 --> 02:48:18.880 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: So how much was that? asr-004458 02:48:19.820 --> 02:48:21.760 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: Basta he gave a specific amount. asr-004459 02:48:22.680 --> 02:48:24.860 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: 15% a year for three years? asr-004460 02:48:24.860 --> 02:48:25.860 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: Like 15 days. asr-004461 02:48:26.500 --> 02:48:29.800 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: ... asr-004462 02:48:30.160 --> 02:48:31.840 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: 5 billion, okay. asr-004463 02:48:33.700 --> 02:48:34.820 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: Every year, diba? asr-004464 02:48:35.280 --> 02:48:38.640 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: 5 billion every year for three years was the testimony. asr-004465 02:48:39.120 --> 02:48:47.680 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: 5 billion every year for three years was the testimony, of course, under oath. asr-004466 02:48:48.180 --> 02:48:51.380 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: So if you have that data, and you have this amount, asr-004467 02:48:51.380 --> 02:48:54.720 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: and you made him state witness, asr-004468 02:48:54.720 --> 02:49:03.880 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: how do you reconcile the testimony of about 15 billion pesos received, asr-004469 02:49:04.320 --> 02:49:07.980 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: whether true or not, we don't, well, you know, we will have to assume that asr-004470 02:49:07.980 --> 02:49:13.760 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: he said it under oath unless there is proof to the contrary. asr-004471 02:49:14.740 --> 02:49:18.480 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: How do you reconcile that as a matter of state policy? asr-004472 02:49:19.600 --> 02:49:21.160 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: Mr. Chair, just a point of clarification. asr-004473 02:49:21.160 --> 02:49:24.160 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: You're referring to Secretary? asr-004474 02:49:24.720 --> 02:49:25.720 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: Secretary Bonoan, sir? asr-004475 02:49:26.320 --> 02:49:29.360 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: My understanding, based on the testimony, because I was here, asr-004476 02:49:29.360 --> 02:49:32.760 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: it was the testimony of Yusec Bernardo, asr-004477 02:49:32.760 --> 02:49:42.160 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: who said that he turned over to Secretary Bonoan asr-004478 02:49:42.160 --> 02:49:48.160 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: the amount of, yun na nga, every year for three years, 5 billion. asr-004479 02:49:48.960 --> 02:49:54.080 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: So if his statement, unless rebutted, is evidence, asr-004480 02:49:54.720 --> 02:49:57.360 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: then that's about 15 billion. asr-004481 02:49:57.360 --> 02:50:00.360 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: Again, unless rebutted, no? asr-004482 02:50:00.360 --> 02:50:06.360 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: But he is now a state witness. asr-004483 02:50:06.360 --> 02:50:08.360 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: Both of them are state witnesses. asr-004484 02:50:08.360 --> 02:50:11.360 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: So how do you, as a matter of state policy, asr-004485 02:50:11.360 --> 02:50:14.360 Senator Francis Kiko Pangilinan: policy of the state, how do you reconcile that? asr-004486 02:50:14.360 --> 02:50:16.360 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: Mr. Chair, if I may clarify, asr-004487 02:50:16.360 --> 02:50:22.360 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: insofar as the testimony of Undersecretary Bernardo, asr-004488 02:50:22.360 --> 02:50:24.360 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: relative to the amounts paid to, asr-004489 02:50:24.720 --> 02:50:29.120 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: or delivered to then Secretary Bonoan. asr-004490 02:50:29.120 --> 02:50:32.800 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: I believe this, insofar as the admission asr-004491 02:50:32.800 --> 02:50:36.040 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: or the declaration of Secretary Bonoan asr-004492 02:50:36.040 --> 02:50:37.920 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: to be a state witness, asr-004493 02:50:37.920 --> 02:50:40.360 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: the Department of Justice had nothing to do with that. asr-004494 02:50:40.360 --> 02:50:41.920 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: He was not processed asr-004495 02:50:41.920 --> 02:50:43.260 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: and he was not an applicant asr-004496 02:50:43.260 --> 02:50:45.320 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: under the Witness Protection Program. asr-004497 02:50:45.320 --> 02:50:48.800 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: So kinasuhan po, he was among those who was charged asr-004498 02:50:48.800 --> 02:50:51.320 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: and I think when the case was filed asr-004499 02:50:51.320 --> 02:50:54.520 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: before the Office of the Sandigan Bayan, ah, asr-004500 02:50:54.520 --> 02:50:56.480 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: Office of the Ombudsman, which then asr-004501 02:50:56.480 --> 02:50:58.720 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: in turn filed it with the Sandigan asr-004502 02:50:58.720 --> 02:51:00.480 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: Bayan, it was only then asr-004503 02:51:00.480 --> 02:51:02.420 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: that it was decided that he would be asr-004504 02:51:02.420 --> 02:51:03.840 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: utilized as a state witness. asr-004505 02:51:04.400 --> 02:51:06.160 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: That is a matter which is not visible asr-004506 02:51:06.160 --> 02:51:08.420 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: to the department as to the conditions asr-004507 02:51:08.420 --> 02:51:10.680 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: and if there is any asr-004508 02:51:10.680 --> 02:51:12.740 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: offer of any return in the computation. asr-004509 02:51:13.500 --> 02:51:14.720 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: Now, we can asr-004510 02:51:14.720 --> 02:51:15.560 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: speak of asr-004511 02:51:15.560 --> 02:51:18.400 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: the manner by which asr-004512 02:51:18.400 --> 02:51:20.440 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: we make computations insofar asr-004513 02:51:20.440 --> 02:51:22.380 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: as witnesses who offer asr-004514 02:51:22.380 --> 02:51:24.480 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: to restitute or to return asr-004515 02:51:24.480 --> 02:51:25.340 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: people's money. asr-004516 02:51:25.860 --> 02:51:27.020 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: Tulad po ng halimbawa, asr-004517 02:51:27.240 --> 02:51:29.640 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: kung halimbawa yung asr-004518 02:51:29.640 --> 02:51:32.400 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: pagpalagay na natin si Sally Santos, asr-004519 02:51:33.100 --> 02:51:34.400 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: we ask and we asr-004520 02:51:34.400 --> 02:51:36.380 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: inquire based on the statement that were asr-004521 02:51:36.380 --> 02:51:38.260 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: provided, for example, how many asr-004522 02:51:38.260 --> 02:51:40.540 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: government projects she was involved asr-004523 02:51:40.540 --> 02:51:42.520 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: in and how much the percentage asr-004524 02:51:42.520 --> 02:51:44.300 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: is that she's supposed to have asr-004525 02:51:44.300 --> 02:51:45.600 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: received per project. asr-004526 02:51:46.240 --> 02:51:47.860 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: And on the basis of the asr-004527 02:51:47.860 --> 02:51:50.460 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: declaration, and then we validate asr-004528 02:51:50.460 --> 02:51:51.940 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: it also from the other asr-004529 02:51:51.940 --> 02:51:54.260 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: respondents, dun po namin asr-004530 02:51:54.260 --> 02:51:56.220 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: kinukompute kung magkano yung asr-004531 02:51:56.220 --> 02:51:57.540 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: sinasabi nilang, o, asr-004532 02:51:57.820 --> 02:51:58.780 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: magkano yung susoli ko. asr-004533 02:51:59.400 --> 02:52:01.400 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: So, there is a basis, no? asr-004534 02:52:01.580 --> 02:52:04.480 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: There is a basis for the computation. asr-004535 02:52:04.660 --> 02:52:06.060 Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon: It's not a number which is just asr-004536 02:52:06.060 --> 02:52:07.120 Prosecutor General Richard
