Genuino, four others face malversation charges for using rice donation to typhoon victims in electioneering activities

AFTER filing plunder and anti-graft charges against former PAGCOR Chairman Efraim Genuino and his cohorts, the ex-PAGCOR chief and four others now face malversation raps in relation to the 300 metric-ton of rice donated by a Japanese firm to the Philippine government in 2008.

“Our investigation and records show that Genuino and four others connived to misappropriate more than P3.1 million worth of public funds and property from PAGCOR by diverting part of the rice donation to bolster the political ambitions of his two sons during the 2010 elections,” said PAGCOR President and Chief Operating Officer Jorge Sarmiento. The complaint-affidavit was filed before the Department of Justice (DOJ) today.

Sarmiento said the filing of charges against Genuino and four others is part of the new PAGCOR management’s thrust to bring to justice those who have committed unlawful acts against the state-owned gaming firm in the past.

“The P3.1 million questionable transactions in this case may pale in comparison to the P186 million plunder case PAGCOR recently filed against Mr. Genuino. Gusto lang naming patunayan sa mga kababayan natin na sa PAGCOR ay walang malaki o maliit na halaga pagdating sa paghahanap ng katotohanan at hustisya,” Sarmiento pointed out.

Also named respondents to the case are Edward King (former PAGCOR Senior Vice President for Corporate Communications and Services Department); Mai Mai Tado (a top executive of Trace Computer College owned by the Genuinos. She is now City Administrator of Los Banos, Laguna); Anthony Genuino and Erwin Genuino (sons of the ex-PAGCOR chief who joined the mayoralty bid in Los Baños, Laguna and Makati City, respectively).

In June 2008, Genuino was able to secure a donation of 300 metric tons of Thai rice from Aruze Corporation, one of the proponents for PAGCOR’s Entertainment City Project in Manila, for the victims of typhoon “Frank” which hit the Philippines and wrought damage.

To facilitate the entry of rice into the Philippines and to avail of exemption from taxes and duties, the donation was made in favor of Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD). A Deed of Donation dated July 8, 2008 was executed by Aruze Corporation through its Chairman Kazuo Okada, in favor of the DSWD through then Secretary Esperanza Cabral.

The Office of the President of the Philippines issued Memorandum Order 36 Clearance stating that “the rice donation was intended to augment the prevailing rice shortage and to assist the victims of typhoon “Frank”. The taxes and import duties for the said rice donation were deemed automatically appropriated and considered as expenditure of the government”.

On July 15, 2008, the donated rice to DSWD was withdrawn from the port and placed under the custody and full control of PAGCOR and delivered to a private warehouse in Cabuyao, Laguna. On the same day, the former PAGCOR Board approved a budget of P1.35 million to be used for the forwarding, storage and brokerage fees of the donated rice.

A few days after, PAGCOR came out with a press release about the formal turnover of said rice donation, which was witnessed by former National Disaster Coordinating Council (NDCC) Chairman Gilbert Teodoro, Jr.

Based on records, only 6,500 of the 10,000 donated sacks of rice were given to the DSWD for distribution to calamity victims. The balance of 3,500 sacks were withdrawn, delivered and ended up at the PAGCOR warehouse in Imus, Cavite.

Sometime September 2008, respondent King coordinated with the National Food Authority (NFA) to request that the remaining bags of rice be transferred to the NFA warehouse in Cavite in order to protect the donated rice from pest infestation. The request was granted and on October 2008, the remaining donated bags were transferred to the NFA warehouse.

Upon learning that the prolonged storage might lead to the rice’s deterioration, PAGCOR entered into a barter agreement with a private rice mill wherein the donated rice was replaced with a cheaper variety of rice. From that point onwards and up to the rundown to the 2010 national elections, several hundreds of bags of the rice were repacked in sacks bearing the images of Ton and Erwin Genuino as electoral candidates.

The repacked bags of rice were turned over to and received by Trace Computer College, owned by the family of former PAGCOR Chairman Genuino, and various individuals representing Genuino’s sons. These sacks were eventually distributed during the election period to bolster the candidacies of the Genuino brothers.

“What Mr. Genuino did is a clear case of diverting the officially donated rice to DSWD/Philippine Government to his two sons’ 2010 electoral campaigns when they ran for elective public offices”.

According to the PAGCOR President-COO, the total cost of rice released to the Genuino brothers was P1.40 million while the expenses incurred for logistics such as shipment, trucking, storage and repacking amounted to P1.69 million.

Utol ng presidente, nairita sa anak ng vice president

Sa isang article ng Philippine Star , natanong daw kay Junjun Binay (Anak ni Vice President Jejomar) kung totoo bang nagde-date sila ni Kris Aquino. Ang sagot ni Junjun...

“Yes, we are good friends. We saw the Justin Bieber concert together, and by gosh, when you’re with Kris, everybody wants to have a picture with her,”

Nag-react si Kris sa statement na yan sa twitter...

"In the 14 months since my separation, I haven't dated anybody. I thought Jun & I were friends but after what I read I've come to the conclusion a gentleman doesn't really say stuff like that especially when it can be read as 'patama' to his friend," -Kris

Kung ano man ang issue nila, wala kaming paki-alam. Ang nakakuha ng atensyon namin dito ay ang pagiging sensitive ni Kris sa "patama". Isa sa nakakatuwang ugali ni Kris Aquino ay ang pagsasalita bago mag-isip. Natuto na sya, pero minsan, sumusumpong parin ang pagiging taklesa nya. Ok lang, isa yun sa mga nagustuhan ng mga tao sa kanya dahil nagmumuka syang honest. Pero dahilan din yan kung baket wala syang karapatan umapila sa mga "patama". Malakas din sya magpahapyaw 'e. Pag si Kris ang nagpahaging hindi ka medyo tatamaan. Bubulagta ka dahil sa muka mo sasambulat ang "patama" nya. Pag sya ang nagpatama ok lang? Pag sya ang pinatamaan, mali? Ang galing 'a.

Hindi lang dun nag-react si Kris. Tinanong din kasi si Junjun kung may balak ba syang magpakasal ulit? Ito ang sagot nya...

“Why do people marry? Because of lack of knowledge...Why do people separate? Because of lack of experience...Why do people remarry? Because of loss of memory.”

Sinagot din ni Kris yan sa twitter...

“There's a quote attributed to him about marriage, separation & remarrying. I know he tried to be witty, but it offended me.” -Kris

“Thanks to all. May I just explain? I got so sensitive about 'getting married because of a lack of knowledge, separation is a lack of experience, remarrying is loss of memory'- the truth is james & I have learned so much & we won't forget the painful lessons we've learned.” -Kris

May karapatan nga naman syang ma-offend at mag-react dahil pag ikaw si Kris Aquino lahat ng bagay sa mundo ay umiikot sayo. Hindi pwedeng magsalita ang isang tao kung hindi tungkol sayo. (Para sa mga bobo: sarcasm yan.) Baket inisip ni Kris na patama sa kanya ang statement ni Junjun Binay tungkol sa kasal? Pwede namang sinabi ni Junjun yon para sa sarili nya? Dahil sinabi din ni Junjun Binay na wala pa syang balak magpakasal ulit pagkataos lumipas ng dati nyang asawa. Ang mali lang ni Junjun dito, hindi sya nag-elaborate ng sagot nya. At kung para kay Kris nga ang sinabi nya, si Junjun ang may mali.

Hindi natin alam kung ano talaga ang gustong ipunto ni Junjun Binay sa statement nya tugkol sa kasal. Siguro yun lang talaga ang opinyon nya. At lahat nga ay may karapatan magbigay ng opinyon... kahit mali.

Baket hindi tama ang sinabi ni Junjun?

Junjun: Why do people marry? Because of lack of knowledge...

MaEpal: Mali. Dahil people marry to devote 2 separate lives to be lived as 1. Kahit puno ka ng knowledge tungkol sa kahit ano, hindi yan magiging dahilan ng pagpapakasal mo.

Junjun: Why do people separate? Because of lack of experience...

MaEpal: Mali. Why do people separate? Because of wrong and unfortunate experiences .

Junjun: Why do people remarry? Because of loss of memory.

MaEpal: Mali. Why do people remarry? To build new memories.
