Dispatch from Crame No. 1151:
Sen. Leila M. de Lima On the Need to freeze the assets of Michael Yang, Lloyd Lao, and the Pharmally Directors

Like everyone else, I was shocked by the parade of Lamborghinis, Porsches, and Lexuses owned by the directors of Pharmally who apparently went wild on a luxury car buying-spree after receiving their 8.7 billion windfall from selling overpriced PPEs, masks, and face shields to the government. Kulang na lang yung Maserati ni ex-DBM Usec. Lloyd Christopher Lao kumpleto na sana.

Alam naman nating laway lang ang puhunan ng mga ito, lalo na ang laway ni Michael Yang na tila ba napakatamis para kay Duterte at siya pa ang tumatayong abogado para sa kanila. Alam naman nating si Michael Yang lang at ang kanyang koneksyon kay Duterte ang dahilan kung bakit nakorner ng mga ito ang bilyon-bilyon na kontrata sa gobyerno.

So that is where our Bayanihan 2 funds went. Ginamit na pambili ng mga Porsche at Lamborghini, habang namamatay sa gutom at COVID ang ating mga kababayan.

Napakahalimaw nga naman talaga ng mga Pharmally directors na ito ano po? Mga walang kaluluwa, pati na iyong kanilang mga kasabwat sa gobyerno katulad ni Usec. Lao, ang nasa gitna sa lahat ng transaksyong ito na si Michael Yang, at ang kanilang kalabaw na tinutuntungan sa Malacañang, walang iba kung hindi si Duterte.

There is an urgent need to freeze the assets of all these soulless monsters before they all fly away to the Carribean with their plundered loot. The AMLC should immediately apply for a freeze order and initiate civil forfeiture proceedings against these shameless profiteers. Kahit huwag muna si Duterte. Saka na yung kalabaw. Kahit hanggang sa kanyang BFF na si Michael Yang muna.

That Lamborghini, that Porsche, that Lexus, are the people's money. That is our money. And these greedy monsters have no conscience whatsoever using our money to feed their boundless sociopathic need for material wealth at the expense of dying Filipinos in the midst of the COVID-19 catastrophe. They deserve to burn in hell.
