MANILA - Iloilo Congresswoman Janette Garin on Sunday said a local supplier had been overpricing COVID-19 testing kits and machines, and had delayed the delivery of these medical equipment to the country.
She said that the local supplier also padded the cost of these medical equipment by up to three times the manufacturers’ price and had been hoarding the testing kits and machines.
Garin SHLD name the supplier already. Patumpik-tumpik kayo sa pag-call out ng mga abusado. May newspaper, may radio, may TV, may internet, identify them na or part of the problem din kayo. 😡
