Comelec Reactions

Posted by Yvonne Chua, PCIJ 

ONE Comelec lawyer confirmed today talking with Elections Commissioner Virgilio Garcillano about the votes in Talitay town, Maguindanao. (Read previous post, Arroyo and ARMM.)

Wynne Asdala of the law department told PCIJ that he has read the transcript of the three-hour tape but has not heard it.

Asdala, who served as the provincial election supervisor of Maguindanao in the May 10, 2004 elections and who was heard in the controversial recordings twice discussing with Garcillano former Sen. Robert Barbers' alleged request to raise his votes in Maguidanao and Sultan Kudarat, denied he and Garcillano ever talked about Barbers and the attempt to pad the former senator's votes.

He said the commissioner had called to ask who was leading in Talitay, but could not remember which candidate the latter was interested in. He also said he could not have intervened in Columbio, a town in Sultan Kudarat. (The provincial election supervisor of Sultan Kudarat was Lintang Bedol.)

Asdala also denied he knows Sultan Kudarat Gov. Pax Mangudadatu, who, together with his son, Rep. Suharto "Teng" Mangudadatu, was mentioned in the tape as supposedly asking him to help Barbers in Talitay. The Mangudadatus have yet to give their side.

Meanwhile, two Comelec personnel from Mindanao informed PCIJ today that the voice of "Boy" resembled that of Renato "Boy" Magbutay, Comelec director for the Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao. 

Two other Comelec sources based in Manila earlier told PCIJ that they were sure Boy's voice was that of Renault "Boy" Macarambon, a lawyer detailed at the office of Elections Commissioner Virgilio Garcillano and supposedly tasked by the commissioner to closely monitor the ARMM.

In their conversations, Boy and Elections Commissioner Virgilio Garcillano discussed the political opposition's plan to present election officer Rashma Hali as a witness on the alleged cheating in Tipo-Tipo, Basilan, as well as President Arroyo's concern that a teacher from Languyan, Tawi-Tawi was in the opposition's "Witness Protection Program."

Magbutay told PCIJ in a phone interview that said he has not listened to the tape. But he said, "Hindi ako yung nandoon sa (I'm not there in the) alleged tape. It's not me."

He also suggested, "Why don't we wait for the proper agency to determine if it's the original or altered tape? Malay mo pinagdugtong-dugtong lang yan to make it appear na original (It may have been spliced to make it appear that it's the original)."

Macarambon did not report for work today, and has not returned our calls despite a request we left with his colleagues.

Retirees' Revolt

'Destab' in Aid of Collection?
By Roel Landingin
Newsbreak Contributing Writer



There are few combinations more dangerous than money and the military, but that's exactly the combustible mix that the Arroyo administration stirred up when it did not pay enough attention to the military retirees' demands for the settlement of unpaid pension benefits amounting to at least P17 billion as of end-2004.

Former generals who called for President Arroyo's ouster last May 1 are also leaders of a group of military retirees pressing the government to pay legally mandated increases in retirement benefits since 2000. What began as an innocent welfare issue seems to have evolved into a patently anti-government political movement.

In January, after getting tired of appealing to authorities, an organization of retirees, the Federation of Retired Commissioned and Enlisted Soldiers (Forces), filed a class suit against the defense and budget departments as well as the House of Representatives and the Senate to compel the government to appropriate funds to pay for the increases in the retirees' pensions.

The retirees' lawyer argued that the government's failure to pay part of the ex-soldiers and officers' pensions amounted to "grave abuse of discretion" and violated the military retirement law. The government has not earmarked any amount for the payment of the increases in pensions and other benefits of retired soldiers stipulated in the law, he said.

Four months later, leaders of Forces and other retiree groups, notably retired army general and ex-Defense Secretary Fortunato Abat, called for the ouster of Ms. Arroyo and the establishment of a revolutionary junta composed of military, political, and civil society leaders.

Another retired officer, Commodore Ismael Aparri, disclosed in early April that former soldiers were soliciting the support of those in active duty for a "civil disobedience" campaign to force the government to settle its pension obligations to close to 300,000 retired or separated soldiers, including dependents of those who have died, according to a report in the Tribune. He warned that the government's failure to act on the retirees' demands for pension payments may encourage some of former soldiers and officers to move for the ouster of President Arroyo.

Calling for the President's overthrow looks like an odd way to collect on the government's obligation. But if senators can conduct "investigations in aid of collection"—as UK bank Standard Chartered called the Senate's inquiry on an alleged investment scam—why can't ex-soldiers use the threat of destabilization to collect as well?

Ruben:: Hello Garci, si Ruben:. Anong balita?

Gary: Eto, nag-aano kasi ako yung sa Tipo-tipo na tao, parang nasa kamay na nila. Pero wala naming damage sa atin, per okay Wa-ab. Kaya dapat si Wa-ab ang gumalaw nyan.

Ruben:: Pero, mag-tetestify sya against the administration eh, against the President!

Gary: How can he? Wala naman siyang ginawa kay Presidente.

Ruben:: Eh hindi diba, ang gagamiting, mag-tetestify siguro yun against the President regarding the bawas-dagdag na ginawa dun sa ano..

Gary: Wala naman tayong ginawa para kay Presidente dun sa kanya ah.

Ruben:: Hindi, yun ang pine-presenta di ba? Yan yung prine-presenta ni Rufus Rodriguez pati yung kay Libron?

Gary: Oo nga, pero wala naman. Kay Libron, di nila makukuha si Libron, wala na din a nila makukuha.

Ruben:: Si Libron nga, hindi na nga dahil as of two days ago, naka-usap na nga raw eh.

Gary: Sinong nakausap?

Ruben:: Si Libron, naka-usap na ng military.

Gary: Sabihin mo dyan sa military nay an, wag silang masyadong makiki-alam, kasi sinampal pala si Libron eh, akin yang tao nyan eh, taga Batangas yan eh.

Ruben:: Ah ganun ba?

Gary: Oo, wag naman ganun. Bago nila gawin yung primero, sinampal pa kasi eh, kaya mangiyak-ngiyak yung tao eh. Kaya kahit paka-inin mo ng bala yun, din a magpapakita. Ngayon, itong si Rasma Ali, wala naman masasabi against kay Ma'am eh, kahit anong sabihin nila because she has not done anything except kay Wahab Akbhar. Kaya dapat si Wahab ang ma-warningan.

Ruben:: Pero, ano ba pare yung pinakikitang ano ni Rufus na ano...?

Gary: Ah, pabayaan mo siya but it does not have anything to do with the President.

Ruben:: Ibig mong sabihin yung pinakikitang dinagdagan daw yung boto ni Presidente eh...

Ruben:: Yung tipo-tipo diba?

Gary: Oo nga, pero ang problema nyan, wala naman kay Presidente dyan

Ruben:: Hindi bay un ang pine-presenta ni Rufus na dinagdagan?

Gary: Yung pinakita ni Rufus, tingnan natin sa Provincial Canvass, kasi wala naman nagagawa yan dun sa kanyang munisipyo. Bahala siya, kaya nga ina-ano ko sa Wa-ab, pina-aano ko kay Wa-ab ngayon, dapat si Presidente ma-kwan nya kay Wa-ab para si Wa-ab ang kumuha ng tao na yan kung hindi, pakukuha ko ang pamilya nyan.

Ruben:: Uh-humm..

Gary: Yun na ang last resort, pakukuha ko ang pamilya nyan.

Ruben:: Yun na lang ang dapat gawin dun.

Gary: oo, pero dapat malaman ni Wa-ab na si Wa-ab, kasi ang more damage will be against that Wa-ab Akbhar, not the President.

Ruben:: Bakit, naapektuhan ba yung boto ni Wa-ab?

Gary: Siya lang talaga ang ano malaking naka-pabor. Kaya kung maari papuntahin ko dito yung supervisor, patago ko rin dito sakin. Because, I want to clean out kung alin yung mga by municipality results.

Ruben:: Hindi yun nga ang nagkaka-problema dahil si Wa-ab ang nagpatrabaho nyan eh.

Gary: eh ang problema nyang si Wa-ab, gumalaw si Wa-ab nung huli na.

CONVERSATIONS WITH COMELEC COMMISSIONER VIRGILIO GARCILLANO


Thursday, 06 09, 2005

Part II

Conversation between Gary and Tony on 12 10:03 hotel June 2004

Gary: Hello Tony, si Commissioner Garcillano.

Tony:Oo Garci.

Gary: Yung sinasabi na ako daw nag nagsabi na 330 million ang na-spend ni Presidente. Interview lang sa akin kahapon.. Yung sabi ko the person should file a separate statement of expenses because there is a treasurer. Bakit naman sinasabi na ako ang nagsabi that she spent the most amount.

Tony: No, no, no. The problem is like this no, Gar. Ah, according to news report... (line cut)

Continuation...

Gary: Hello. Ah tawagan kita kasi ako nga ang nag-quote dun sa newspaper issue about nung filing ni Presidente.

Tony:Eh siyempre kasi ikaw ang Commissioner eh.

Gary: Oo nga, pero hindi ko man sinasabi yung mga amount ganun, pero sabi sa akin ni Tony Vilar, dati naman daw na siya ang nagpa-file for the party and tsaka ang kandidato.

Tony:Ganun, hindi eh. Hindi lang siguro napansin yun.

Gary: Hindi eh. Pero ikaw din ang nag-receive eh. Inano nya yung fi-nile nung 1998, 1992, ikaw din daw ang nagre-receive eh.

Tony:Hindi, meron kasing ano...pero hindi eh. Nung 1992 klarong-klaro, ngayun kwan kasi...

Gary: 98 binasa niya sa akin.

Tony:Hindi lang siguro na-ano yan. Kasi diba nung 1998, wala ng nag-intidi dahil landslide si kwan, Joseph. Pero yung kay Jose De Venecia, siya mismo. Yung kay Ramos, siya din. Kina Salonga...

Gary: Pero meron siyang ifi-nile, binasa sa akin eh.

Tony:Alam mo kasi yung fi-nile nila, para sa party. Hindi candidates of the party. Yung ginastos ng mga party sa mga kandidato nila eh. So hindi lang naman yung ginastos ni Presidente, yung ginastos ng party eh. Ang magiging number 1 na issue dyan yung assumption ng office. Eh maliwanag naman sa Law eh. Every candidate or treasurer of the political party, ang deemed requirement sa Law, the political party leading candidates and every candidate shall file an itemized statement of contribution and expenditures, requirement yun sa law at may provision doon na you cannot assume the responsibility of the office unless you file a statement of contribution and expenditures. So baka magiging issue pa yan kung sinabi nila na yung fi-nile ng K4 ay kwan.

Gary: Yun nga eh, nalaman na ng iba, baka sabihin e i-demand na mag-file sya eh, baka kelangan...Si Manolo at si Dante hindi naman daw nag-prepare nyan eh. Di ba si Manolo nag-file sayo.

Tony:Oo, si Manolo at si Dante, sila nag-file.

Gary: Silang dalawa. Eh paki-kwan na lang sa kanila. I-explain mo sa kanila kasi baka ma-issue na naman yan eh.

Tony: Sigurado. Eh ang ano naman eh...xxx kasi kung ano mangyari nyan eh...

Gary: Oo, that's kwan...

Tony:Kasi hindi maging issue yung pag-assume, kasi she cannot ah, any winning candidate cannot assume without filing the necessary statement.

Gary: Yung nga, sabihin mo kila Manolo. Pati na si Dante. Kasi ini-insist ni Vilar na ganun din daw ang fi-nile 1998.

Tony:Pero sabihin mo, kaya namin sinasabi ito eh, problema ninyo ito. Mamaya eh maging ano yan eh issue yan eh.

Gary: Kaya eh..ikaw kasi ang nag-receive kay Dante at Gorospe, eh tawagan mo sila.

Tony:As far as they are concerned kasi, hindi compliance yun. Kami ang tatanungin.

Gary: Ako rin, ako rin. I am with you. Ang problema nyan, we are claiming na, Vilar is claiming that he has been doing that...

Tony:Pero kung sakali hindi napansin yun nung nakaraan, this time mahirap yan kasi she is a winning candidate eh. Magiging issue yan eh. And dapat sabihin mo sa kanila, alam nyo wag kayo gumawa ng istorya, kayo ang kawawa dayn eh, hindi kami.

Gary: Oo nga, pero dapat sabihin mo na sa kanila kasi...eh naka sinasabi sayo, ikaw rin daw ang nag-receive nung...

Tony:Alam mo kasi receiving lang yan eh.

Gary: ...later on that will call their attention at the time.

Tony:Oo, wala pa noon. Hindi inaano yan eh. Ngayon, baka mamaya matawag ng pansin kasi nalaman ng iba, di ba?

Gary: Ako, nakasabi rin ako dun, pagtawag mo, sinabihan ko si Ma'am...Aywan ko kung ano, kung anong gagawin nila.

Tony: Oo, sige.

Gary: Pero kwanan mo si Dante at si Gorospe.

Tony: Hindi compliance yun eh.

Gary: Kaya nga paki-ano mo sa kanila. Para hindi siya ma-ano. Ako ang kino-quote na ako ang nagsabi dun sa amount pero sa pagsabi ko na separate sana kay Presidente, nagsabi talaga ako dun. Pero yung sa interview mo, bakit ako ang inaano nitong is kwan?

Tony:Dinagdag nila siguro

Gary: Villaneuva.. eh ikaw na-interview di ba?

Tony:Oo, yun tungkol dun sa ten pesos.

Gary: Ten pesos per candidate?

Tony: Sa presidente.

Gary: Ah presidente?

Tony: Yung sa party five pesos.

Gary: Ok lang din naman yung amount no?

Tony:Oo, oo

Gary: O sige na, pakitawag na din man sila Gorospe at si kwan, si Dante...

Tony:Ok.

Conversation...

Tony:Hello, ang tinawagan ko nalang si Mrs. Pineda. Eh mas mabuti pa ito nakakaintindi eh. Alam yung ano eh. Ang sabi niya, Oo kelangan talagang may individual yung kwan.

Gary: Oo nga, ini-insist nila yung ginagawa nila nung araw.

Tony:Ngayon sabi niya, pinaliwanag ko, sabi niya oo naiintindihan ko yun, Sabi nya tatawagan ako ngayon.

Gary: Sana sinabi mo na tinawagan ko na rin si Ma'am. Pero sinabi ni Ma'am kahapon ok eh.

Tony:Eh kasi baka mamaya maging issue pa eh.

Gary: Oo nga wag na natin hintayin na darating sa ganyan

Tony:Kasi itong mga tao niya masyadong pabaya.

Gary: Kung ano-ano kasing pinagsasabi eh. Na ikaw din daw ang tumatanggap noon, ganoon.

Tony:Naku wala eeeh, iba noon kung ano kasi, hindi naman napansin siguro.

Gary: At tsaka hindi yun, hindi naman sya kandidatong Presidente noon, yung 2000...

Tony:Nung 1998 na kumandidato siyang Vice President, maganda yung fi-nile nya. Sabi nga ni Atty. De Mesa na ginaya na lang nya yung finile nya nung vice presidential candidate siya.

Gery: Ah nag-file sya ng separate nun.

Tony: Oo.

Gary: Eh bakit sinasabi nitong Vilar ngayon na...

Tony:Ang pumirma pa nga si Mike Arroyo.

Gary: Ang akala niya siguro ang nire-represent niya, pinapalabas niya yung fi-nile niya for the President before.

Tony:Hindi, for the party yun eh...iba yung sa party, iba yung sa president eh.. Si De Venecia nag-file din ng sarili eh.

Gary: Ewan ko si Vilar yan.

Tony:O sige, ganon nalang.

Gary: Ok sige oo.

Conversation between "Gary" and Mike on 08 1433H June 04

Boss tulungan mo sana yung loyal sa atin si Bobby Barbers,

Papano pag kayu-kayo dyan

Tignan mo, oo, nagfile ng parang annulment or something, tignan mo kung matutulungan mo

O sige basta kwan, talaga naming aking inaano si Bobby e, talaga naming siya naman ang atin e

Oo siya, sya talaga ang atin, tulungan mo sana.

Ok.

Thank you.

 
Gary and Mike on 02 1156H June 2004

Kami ni Bobby Barbers dahil parang siya kasi doon sa Lanao del Sur. Meron pa raw 27 municipalities pa.

Alin, alin

Meron pa raw 27 municipalities dun sa Lanao del Sur

Hindi kasi ang kuwan dun sa Lanao del Sur, 2 presinto sa bayan, 4 na presinto sa Madalin, 1 presinto sa Capay, yun na lang.

So bale 5.

No. Pero presinto lang

A precinct lang.

Oo, wala naming 1000 e.

Ang impression, dahil sa Columbio meron pa raw 3rd siya.

Hindi wala na yung Columbio nakasama na nung kuwan,

Sa tingin ko wala na rin.

Ang South Op ang nilagay nila na merong 4000, pero kahit anu pa wala pa rin di makahabol.

E ang Tawi-Tawi makakuha pa raw siya ng 750

E, wala namang ano, ewan ko, wala namang ano yang Tawi-tawi.

Kawawa naman yung bata natin.

Alam mo, talagang inaano ko yan, pinagdududahan na ako ng nag-kuwan dun sa Lanao Sur.

(Laughter) Anak ng puta, hay naku, kawawa naman.

O sige tatawagan ko mamaya siya.

Sige tawagan mo siya kung puwede.

Sige.

Thank you, thank you.

 
Gary and Mike on 02 1023H June 2004

Hello.

Hello, si Mike to.

(garbled)

Hello.

Kung puwede ho, tulungan niyo si Bobby Barbers.

Oo nga ho, pero mahihirapan na tayo, medyo nabuko tayo sa Lanao del Sur at hindi na makakahabol dito sa Cotabato.

Ganun ba, baka puwede pang gawan ng paraan.

Nandito po kami sa session ngayon e. Nag-usap na kami ni Senator.

Ok.

Gary and PGMA on 02 2229H June 2004

Hello, Ma'm, good evening.

Hello, dun ba sa Lanao del Sur tsaka sa Basilan yun lang bang match dun sa SOV sa COC.

Kuwan ho yan, ang sinasabi nila wala naman ho.

Hindi nagma-match.

Hindi nagma-match. May posibilidad na di magma-match kung hindi nila sinunod yung individual SOV ng mga munisipyo, pero ewan ko lang ho kung sa atin pabor o hindi kasi dun naman sa Basilan tsaka Lanao Sur, itong ginawa nila na pagpataas sa inyo hindi naman ho kuwan, maayos naman ang paggawa e.

So nagma-match?

Oho. Sa Basilan ay iyon ay pahabol na naman ng mga military dun, hindi masyado marunong kasi silang gumawa e, katulad sa Sulu, Habaton. Pero hindi naman ho kinausap ko kanina yung Chairman ng Board sa Sulu, ang akin e patataguin ko na muna yung EO ng Pagundaran na para hindi siya maka-testigo ho. Nai-print na ho yung kuwan Camarines Norte, tomorrow we will present official communication dun ho sa Senate, dun sinasabing wala hong laman yung ballot box.

Oo.

Na-receive ho nila lahat e.

Oo.

Tumawag ho kayo kanina, Ma'm?

Ya, about that Lanao del Sur at Basilan.

Oho. Nagkausap nga ho kami ni Abdullah dun sa kuwan kanina about this, iaano ko ho, wag ho kayo masyado mabahala, anyway we will take care of this, kakausapin ko rin si Atty. Makalintal.

Oo, tapos non si ano, tapos non si, Calanguyan meron daw silang teacher na nasa Witness Protection Program ng kabila.

Sino ho?

Yung kabila, may teacher daw silang hawak.

Wala naman ho, baka nananakot lang ho sila, kasi yung kuwan.

Calanguyan, Tawi-Tawi.

Calanguyan sa Tawi-Tawi, wala naman hong kuwan tayo dun, wala tayong ginawa dun sa Calanguyan, talo nga tayo dun, talo nga si Nur doon e.

Oo.

Sige, aanuhin ko ho.

Ok, sige, sige. Thank you, thank you.

Oo, oo.

Pero pano, san ho ba naman, ang hindi ko maintindihan what is that they are trying to drive at with 120 days (garbled) establish ng (gabled) precincts

Hindi naman ho siguro nila maano ang ating Board of Canvassers pero ang military kasi si Gudani, sa kanila si Gudani. I do not know if they will file. Sa kanila si Gudani Ma'm, that is why I had to work with Gen. Esperon and Gen. Kyamco na at that time pinalitan namin si Gudani for a while kaya kuwan, pero bakit nila pa-filean yang mga military na sa kanila lahat na halos ayaw na ngang mag give way sa aming mga tao.
