Finance Secretary Benjamin Diokno defended Friday the proposed Maharlika Wealth Fund, saying it has transparency and accountability safeguard to prevent it from suffering the same fate as Malaysia’ corruption-riddled 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB).

Finance Secretary Benjamin Diokno defended Friday the proposed Maharlika Wealth Fund, saying it has transparency and accountability safeguard to prevent it from suffering the same fate as Malaysia’ corruption-riddled 1Malaysia Development Berhad .

“There are many layers of audits, we have an internal auditor, we have an international auditor, and then we have COA ,” the Finance chief said. “We want to make sure that this is on the level, transparent, there’s accountability, there’s a published report, we submit a report to the President. And this will be published so we can be sure that the people would know where that money is going," he said.

"In a situation where high rewards are likely, we also need to manage risks. Ito naman ang dahilan kaya maraming safeguards sa batas. Natuto na tayo sa Malaysia kung saan isa lang ang signatory at sisiguraduhin natin na hindi tayo matutulad sa kanila [This is why we have many safeguards. We've learned from Malaysia which only had one signatory and we will make sure we won't go the same route]," the House leader said.

Diokno is joking knowing the fact that most if not all of our politicians are corrupt😃

amakana mr jokeno

The make PBBM settle his Family Tax Due & use this to Fund the MWF... if he does not ✋️ implementing this project.... Grrrrrrr

Promises

Wonder why this so-called financial guru is so confident of this fund when during Digong's time he didn't broach this subject matter?

Buti sana kung yan ang ehemplong ipinapakita sa senate budget hearings... Hindi eh. We cannot trust the government's words when its actions contradict its pronouncements. 🙄

safeguard is never safe from the guards. accountability is just a word you can't count on. and transparency comes with confidentiality.

Why, in the first place, will it be headed by someone who has no moral ascendacy when it comes to paying/remitting taxes

LOL, transparency does not even exist in the government’s vocabulary.

Ano nga ang importansya ng Maharlika Wealth Fund.... para matuloy ang hindi nalutas ng paglalaba ng pera or para madugtungan. Para happy ang nasa position. YON ba

Whatever🙄 Still no assurance that our pension money will be protected. graft corruption ItsMoreFUNDinthePhilippines

It will be worst 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

That's what 1MDB said too

Sure.

The MWF is just masquerading as a sovereign wealth fund, which means the Philippines is a poor country pretending to be rich.' Analysis READ: No surprise there....🫤🫤🫤🫤 Congress: stop this madness now please. Why take money from general accounts to invest only to replace it with borrowed funds to finance government operations and programs? Makes no sense. Find something else to do, like legislating a debt ceiling.
