Malacañang deferred comment on the Senate Blue Ribbon committee s recommendations on the government s allegedly overpriced pandemic supply deals but insisted that the Chief Executive is not protecting anyone involved in the transactions.
MANILA, Philippines The Senate blue ribbon committee on Tuesday accused President Rodrigo Duterte of complicity in “one of the biggest plunders of the Philippines’ coffers in recent history” that involved his friends and appointees in the government’s multibillion-peso pandemic supply deals with Pharmally Pharmaceutical Corp. in 2020 and 2021.
The House Committee on Good Government and Public Accountability has recommended the abolition of the controversial Procurement Service-Department of Budget and Management (PS-DBM) and sought the filing of non-bailable syndicated estafa against six executives of Pharmally Pharmaceuticals Corp.
