00:00Senator Bongo forgot the name of the PDEA's matrix
00:03regarding the connection of Pogo and an illegal drug
00:06that was released during a hearing in the camera earlier.
00:08According to the PDEA,
00:09Go's friend is a drug personality,
00:13which was denied by the senator
00:14because the PDEA's statement is irresponsible.
00:18Witness, Ian Cruz.
00:24During the hearing of the Quad Committee in the camera earlier,
00:27the name of an Alan Lim,
00:29a drug personality wanted in China,
00:32a casino junket operator,
00:34and a chicken smuggler,
00:35were mentioned.
00:36Lim is also one of the incorporators
00:38of Farmally Corporation,
00:40which became controversial
00:41because of its P11 billion contract
00:44for the COVID pandemic supplies
00:46of the Duterte administration.
00:48Lim is part of the matrix
00:50presented by the PDEA
00:51regarding Pogo and its connection
00:54to various crimes and syndicates.
00:56According to the PDEA,
00:57Lim is a close friend of Senator Bongo
01:01and Michael Yang,
01:02who was the former economic advisor
01:04of the former President Duterte.
01:05Senator Go
01:07claimed that he is a friend of Lim.
01:08It's election time now.
01:11It's ruined.
01:14You will be colored black
01:16so that the others will be white.
01:21This is a rehash.
01:23The PDEA is very irresponsible
01:27in their statements in the hearings.
01:30We are not Alan Lim's close friends
01:34and I am not involved in illegal drugs.
01:38Some congressmen also agreed.
01:40You said earlier that Alan Lim
01:43is involved in illegal drugs.
01:45Does that mean that Senator Bongo
01:48is also involved in drugs?
01:51Since you connected him,
01:53what does your arrow mean?
01:57According to our informant,
01:58they are just close friends.
02:01That's why we just put it there.
02:03They are just close friends.
02:04It is not specific
02:05that they are involved in drugs.
02:08That's why we have these incorporators
02:10just to interlink them.
02:12We are still digging
02:13what we can have against these people.
02:17It is not yet complete, ma'am.
02:19Close friends.
02:19Bongo knows Alan Lim's work.
02:25Senator Bongo knows
02:27that because they are close friends,
02:29he knows that Lim is involved in illegal drugs.
02:33That will be answered by Senator Bongo, ma'am.
02:36Not us yet.
02:37Because we are still investigating.
02:39We do not have concrete proof yet
02:40of what their transaction is.
02:42I'm sorry, Mr. Gumban.
02:44Don't make such a matrix
02:46that is incriminating
02:48and you are connecting
02:49and your title is
02:51Illegal and Pogo Drugs Connection.
02:53It also would be wrong for you
02:56to include a person
02:57who is not involved
03:00in those
03:02illegal crimes.
03:05Mr. Gumban,
03:06let's not make mistakes
03:08because you do not want to
03:10accuse a wrong person.
03:13Mr. Gumban.
03:14Yes, Mr. Chair.
03:15For GMA Integrated News,
03:17Ian Cruz is your witness.
