The Weakest Link of the Marcos Administration

There is a shadow that looms over the Marcos administration. No, let us not drag Martial Law into this. This writer is pertaining to this high-ranking government official with two subordinates who function as a collector and depositor.

This government official allegedly has raked in a lot of cash thanks to these tacticians who work for him.

There is the right timing when it comes to collecting the money and the collector makes sure it is done correctly. Another official, who functions as the depositor, transfers the collection into the high-ranking official’s bank account.

Text messages were exchanged during June and July this year, which served as a negotation. There was mention of millions of pesos acquired via a pro-poor project, in a discrete communication with another individual.

This is how the collector’s text goes: “Request for P100M para inclusive ang mga cabinets, tables and chairs” at “Sa Friday may check release na si (taga-SUBI) .. pls make sure nalagyan ng P100M ni Boss yung account nya Ty” (“Request for P100M inclusive of cabinets, tables, and chairs.” & “On Friday w have a check release from [from SUBI]… please make sure to put P100M on Boss’ bank account.”) are the contained text back in June 7, which is just a few weeks before President Duterte steps down from his position.

There is suspicion that a tycoon is the real identity of this high ranking government official because his two loyal subordinates are in the law and business profession.

The collector already has a besmirched reputation because he was involved with many anomalous scenarios in the past involving the government, so one can assume that he wants to use the Marcos administration to cleanse his misdeeds.

This writer’s reliable source states that a whopping 100 million pesos is received by the collector just for this high-ranking government official. 100 million seems to be petty cash when it comes to these individuals in the Bongbong Marcos administratiob.

The depositor is an individual caught between feading political clans from Metro Manila or the National Capital Region (NCR). She is also popular for her side gigs which would remind you of her initials.

The collector, on the other hand, is also female and she’s a provincial lawmaker.

However, it seems this high-ranking government official, who lords over the two, is now under close scrutiny by the Anti-Money Laundering Council. This is not surprising considering that he has several bank accounts overseas, aside from the ones he has in the Philippines.

“Mr. Silidonyo” (Mr. Sliphere, because he slips here and slips there) is the easiest way to address this high-ranking government official. Together with his two vassals, his pockets are full of millions thanks to his modus operandi which ensures he will never run out of money.

How long will this last?
