PhilHealth mafia must be uprooted — Lacson

This was the conclusion from the testimony of former PhilHealth Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Augustus de Villa that retired Brig. Gen. Ricardo Morales, PhilHealth president and chief executive officer , had told him to leave agency because his fellow vice presidents do not trust him, Sen. Panfilo M. Lacson, vice chairman of the Senate Committee of the Whole, said.

A PhilHealth officer had testified that the actuarial life of PhilHealth would be on a very precarious position in 2021. Asked during a radio interview Thursday whether firing Morales from the top PhilHealth post would stop the hemorrhaging of agency funds or other anomalous decisions and would set the stage for a major cleanup, Lacson said that the powerful mafia has to be “uprooted’’ first.

Both Morales and Senators Lacson and Ronald dela Rosa are graduates of the Philippine Military Academy . Lacson emphasized that the Senate has the authority to make recommendations against anybody to proper agencies such as the Office of the Ombudsman in its law-making mandate.

Wow naman. Na submit na nga ni Keith documentary evidence at nagsalita na Keith at nag identify na. What more waste of time? Morales' duty now ay 'kumanta' para sya na mismo magsubmit signed affidavit kung sino sino mga magnanakaw.
