NSA Chief Confident In Gabriela’s Delisting
LOOK
August 17, 2021Abn
BAGUIO CITY (August 17, 2021)— National Security Adviser and National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (NTF-ELCAC) Vice Chairman Hermogenes Esperon, Jr. showed confidence the Commission on Elections (Comelec) will disqualify Gabriela Partylist in next year’s polls for allegedly receiving money from foreign donors, a violation of the 1987 Philippine Constitution.

At the NTF-ELCAC’s weekly virtual press conference “TAGGED: Debunking Lies by Telling the Truth”, Sec. Esperon claimed he had finished testifying on the petition for the cancellation of registration of Gabriela Women’s Party (GWP) and the General Assembly of Women and Reforms (GAWR) in the party-list system last Thursday (August 12, 2021) before the Comelec’s 2nd Division.

“My task is done in the Comelec. Other witnesses will be called,” Esperon said, adding, “officials from the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) will also stand as witnesses to the disqualification case “to prove that Gabriela is receiving money from abroad.”

Esperon said he believes in the Comelec’s swift resolution to cancel Gabriela since there will be a registration of parties for the coming elections.

“We certainly pray, and I hope and I’m confident, that the Comelec will resolve this petition because, by my recollection from other reports, there are many applicants for partylists numbering more than a hundred,” Esperon said, as he is confident the Comelec will rule in the government’s favor.

The NTF-ELCAC petition cited Gabriela for violating Section 2, Paragraph 5, Article 9 (C) of the Philippine Constitution by receiving financial assistance from a foreign government and non-government organizations (NGOs).

Political parties found guilty of such offenses can have their Comelec registration canceled.

Section 2, Paragraph 5 of Article 9 (C) of the Philippine Constitution provides that “Financial contributions from foreign governments and their agencies to political parties, organizations, coalitions, or candidates related to elections constitute interference in national affairs, and, when accepted, shall be an additional ground for the cancellation of their registration with the Commission, in addition to other penalties that may be prescribed by law.”

Also, Rule 32, Section 8 (D) of the Comelec Rules of Procedure states that receiving support from any foreign government is one of the grounds for the cancellation of the registration of any political party.

“Various foreign funding”

Esperon said one of AMLC officials who has appeared at the hearing informed Comelec that Gabriela received funds not only from the Belgian government but also from Viva Salud VZW, a Belgian-accredited non-government organization (NGO) and another European group.

“Viva Salud from Belgium sent P1.8 M in March 2019. Yung tinanggap sa Viva kitang-kita sa Mazars,” he said, referring to an international accounting firm contracted by the Belgian government to audit Viva Salud’s programs.

Another AMLC finding, Esperon pointed out, was the fund transfers ranging from P1 to P2 M from the INTL FCstone Ltd. of London from September 2015 to March 2019.

“Mazars report pointed out that Gabriela received funds together with the Ibon Foundation and Karapatan,” Esperon said.

Esperon continued that during the same period mentioned, then GWP Representative Emerenciana de Jesus who is also the chairperson of Gabriela, Inc. from 2013-2015, contributed a total of P930,000 to Gabriela during the 2019 national and local elections.

With this, the National Security Adviser said Gabriela, Inc, GWP, and GAWR are all interconnected. “Many of them have the same addresses. Comelec has the same Gabriela address and Gabriela Inc.,” noting that the group has “interlocking bank accounts” according to AMLC findings.

This proves beyond doubt that Gabriela Partylist has circumvented the provisions of the Constitution and Comelec rules, the official said.

“This petition for the cancellation of Gabriela is something serious. And so, I believe in the uprightness of the Comelec. Crunchtime sabi nga natin,” he added.

Meanwhile, Lawyer Marlon Bosantog, NTF-ELCAC spokesperson for Legal Affairs and IP Concerns said, they already have at least 9 witnesses in their petition to cancel the registration of yKabataan Partylist.

“The case of Kabataan Partylist is centered on the Constitution of Kabataan Partylist as a creation of the Communist Party of the Philippines – New People’s Army – National Democratic Front (CPP-NPA-NDF). It is an organization that is made to infiltrate the legislative bureaucracy of the government,” Bosantog said.

He added that the NTF-ELCAC has a witness who was with the Kabataan Partylist from the time it was created. “We have witnesses that can testify on the recruitment of the Kabataan Partylist as a funnel for NPA fighters. We have testimonies that would show the current sitting representative of Kabataan Partylist personally recruited and informed them to go to the mountains and bear arms against the government,” he said.

“So, I think we have at least 9 witnesses and if Comelec would request more, then we would furnish more. And we hope in the coming days there will be a setting of the hearing particularly on this case,” Bosantog said.

It can be recalled that the NTF-ELCAC filed the petition to delist Kabataan Partylist on June 25, 2021, which coincided with the 32nd anniversary of the Rano Massacre in Digos, Davao del Sur.

1 Samuel 17:50

‘And so, without a sword, David defeated and killed Goliath with a sling and a stone!’

The Lord can use what seems insignificant to give you the victory. With God, a sling and a stone can become a weapon of mass destruction. The challenge and obstacle in front of you can be defeated with His help.
Humanity may see only one solution, but the Lord can use anything.

A blessed Monday morning!
