QUESTIONS CURRENT PCSO MUST ANSWER!

Since the current Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) management has been diligently talking about supposed financial anomalies in the agency during the previous administration, it’s to ask them related questions.

Lest we be BRAINWASHED or BLINDED by their serialized attacks on former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo (GMA) and her appointees to the point that we won’t bother checking anymore on what they have done, and is doing, with the agency’s money.

Supposedly anomalous disbursements and realignments of funds have been the core of the current PCSO management’s media blitz.

So what about their own disbursements in the one year that they have been in office? WHERE HAVE THEY SPENT the money that had been behind left by their predecessors?

If they have the right to reveal supposed irregularities in the past, the more do we have the right to know what they have been doing with the PCSO’s money.

Among others, the current management cited bishops and congressmen-allies of GMA as among the beneficiaries of luxury vehicles and hundreds of ambulances.

What about their own beneficiaries so far? What forms of assistance have they extended, to whom and how much? Who are the allies of President Aquino among the beneficiaries?

Anybody correct me if I’m wrong but I hardly read of any form of assistance that the PCSO has given to any local government unit, senator or congressmen.

Or what has been the benefit, if any, of such an assistance to whom.

If the PCSO management will say they have not extended any, then why not and where the hell is the money of the agency? What are they doing with it?

And let’s not forget financial aid to the sick but poor and to the public hospitals or health institutions which are supposed to look after them.

I haven’t heard of any massive or long-term aid from the current PCSO management to public health – from ambulances or other medical vehicles to multi-million funds for medicines for poorly-stocked state hospitals or even health centers to rehabilitation or upgrade of dilapidated public health facilities and their equipment.

President Aquino mentioned the supposedly miserable condition of public hospitals and their sorry lack of medicines when he ran fr president.

Has the current PCSO done anything about this?

The bottom line is FAIR PLAY and TRANSPARENCY. It’s been a year since the current PCSO management took over so it’s time to ask them what have they achieved, if any.

We have not had any CONVINCING AND SOLID assurance yet that the PCSO’s monies are ALL ACCOUNTED FOR and have been WISELY AND JUDICIOUSLY spent.

If they can scrutinize the past, they’re not immune from public scrutiny either. 30

  1. they claim that the previous PCSO management has left them with nothing and in debt to a lot of medical instutitions. right now, it's very hard to ask medical assistance from PCSO. during the time of president arroyo, dialysis patients will be given guarantee letter amounting to P30K. but when the new management took over, it was reduced to P20K and can only be renewed after two months.
