An infrastructure-oriented thinktank said that the various corruption allegations lodged by Senator Manny Pacquiao and former Senator Antonio Trillanes IV require more evidence than what they had already presented in public.

“Make no mistake: The fight against corruption is the common fight of all. But we diminish this fight if we fail to provide sufficient particularity to show the actual corrupt activities of personalities supposedly involved in corrupt activities.”

This was the statement of Terry Ridon, Infrawatch PH convenor and former urban poor chief of President Rodrigo Duterte.

CLTG Builders won above-P100 Million contracts even before Mr. Duterte’s presidency

“As early as the first expose of Senator Trillanes in 2018, we had alreadynoted that CLTG Builders won DPWH contracts worth P448.8-M in 2014, which is larger than the contracts won by the firm in 2016 and 2017, comprising only one and a half years of the Duterte administration.”

Ridon added that as of 2018, the value of the contracts won by CLTG Builders during the Duterte administration are equivalent to less than forty-percent of all its projects from 2010.

“In fact, taken in context with the P448.8-M won by the firm in 2015 and the P200.7M won in 2014, it is difficult to make an objective assessment that the status of Senator Christopher Bong Go as Special Assistant to the President then and his status as Senator now had any influence on the projects won by his father’s company.”

Ridon, a lawyer, said Mr. Trillanes should provide actual evidence of Mr. Go directly benefiting from his father’s contracts.

“Without this smoking gun, as in a money trail of kickbacks and payoffs, all of his allegations certainly looks like a classic demolition job.”

IEMOP conflict of interest, DSWD SAP distribution

On the other hand, Ridon said that Mr. Pacquiao should provide additional details on his corruption allegations relating to the Independent Electricity Market Operator of the Philippines (IEMOP) and the distribution of the Department of Social Work and Development (DSWD) Social Amelioration Program (SAP) funds.

“Senator Pacquiao has to zero in on whether there is conflict of interest in the appointment of IEMOP executives despite their relations with officials in energy agencies. This should be his main focus instead of the pricing regime of the spot market, as this is regulated by the Energy Regulatory Commission.”

Ridon said the senator should also focus on whether financial services providers (FSPs) were granted favors to become one of the SAP providers despite financial or technical limitations.

“Now that DSWD and Starpay had already clarified that not a single centavo of SAP funds had been lost, Senator Pacquao should look into whether all FSPs deserved to be digital SAP providers during the ayuda distribution, as graft includes not only receiving kickbacks and payoffs, but also the granting of unwarranted favors and benefits to private parties.”
