i hope loren as you reminisce your early years as a politician you also find it within yourself how you were as a person… not yet late to flip to the other side
Hi, guys! Whatever is posted on Wattpad and AO3 stays on Wattpad and AO3, okieee? 🥹
Let's keep our discussions, screenshots, and theories within those platforms. Let's continue enjoying these AUs while also being mindful and respectful.
There is a difference between being unaware and being willfully blind. When the truth is already laid out before you and people are already paying the price, silence is not neutrality.
Kung hindi ka pa galit, bakit?
Senator-Judge Risa Hontiveros on Day 10 of the Impeachment Trial against VP Sara Duterte #VPonTrial
Ang galing ng mga tanong kasi simple lang pero established kung gaano kalaki ang halaga ng pera na in cash pa kinuha. 😳
SenRi: Madam Witness, yung 32 years niyo po na sinabi sa banking industry, yun po ba lahat ay sa Landbank lamang?
Ex-Landbank Shaw Blvd. Branch Manager Violeta Constantino: Opo.
SR: Okay. And then, sabi nyo po unusual. Unusual yung withdrawals na ito. Sa 32 years niyo po sa banking industry, sa Landbank, nakakita na po ba kayo ng ganyang kalaking amount na withdrawal ever before?
Constantino: First time po.
SR: First time. Okay. Sabi nyo nga kanina unusual yung amount. First time ay ganyang amount na P125 million. Bakit niyo sinabing unusual? Ano yung floor niyo para sabi yung unusual yung isang amount?
Constantino: Usually po kasi kaya naging unusual po sa akin, kasi cash po siyang kinukuha. Sa other ano naman po, kung baga nag-i-issue po sila ng mga cheke sa... yung disbursement po nila. By cheques po, hindi po cash.
SR: Okay. So hindi lang yung laki nung halaga na P125 million ang unusual, unusual din na yung ganyang unusual amount ay sa cash kinuha at hindi sa mga cheke?
Constantino: Opo.
SR: Okay. And yung P125 million, yun ba yung minimum na 'pag kinuha in cash sasabihin niyo unusual? Or mayroon bang lowest amount na kapag kinuha in cash sa sabihin niyo na rin unusual?
Constantino: Pwede naman po naming sabihin na unusual. Let's say over P500,000 na po siya.
SR: Over P500,000? Kung over P500,000 kinuha in cash, sasabihin nyo unusual?
Constantino: For that particular, let's say po yung kliyente, yung mga ganoon po.
SR: Yes. For thay particular client. Eh ito hindi lang P500,000, P125 million. So 250 times mas unusual sa minimum amount na sa sabihin yung unusual kung kinuha in cash.
Constantino: Depende po rin sa yung kliyente po.
SR: Depende sa kliyente. But kung sino mang kliyente aside, nasabi niyong unusual dahil P125 million, na para po sa akin is 250 times yung P500,000, at hindi po in cheque kung 'di in cash po kinuha.
Constantino: Pwede nga po. Depende po sa depositor po niya kung regular lang sa kanya yung mga ganyang withdrawals or what, it's usual. Pero kung parang for the first time ma-encounter namin that much unusual po sa amin.
SR: And this was your first time.
Constantino: Opo.
SR: And in your 32 years, higit tatlong dekada, kung masasabi nating pambihirang amount ito in cash?
Constantino: Opo.
SR: Masasabi nating once in a lifetime yung ganitong amount in cash.
Constantino: Pwede po.
SR: Pwede. Alright. Salamat, Mr. presiding Officer. Tutuloy ko po sa second round.
