FG linked to another alleged overprice
I JUST CAN`T BELIVE WHAT I READ And the thing is that this kind of equipment are overpriced already from beginning to include. negotiation marginals the price at US1,9$ for shore include 20% discounts at this quantity
"The loan for Phase 1 involves $50 million for 10 units of the x-ray machines and $100 million for 20 more units for Phase 2" "During
the Nov. 2, 2007 budget hearing, BOC Commissioner Napoleon Morales said
each unit of the x-ray machines cost $2.5 million.
But according to comparative
international prices of x-ray machines based on results of public
biddings for the Los Angeles Harbor Department and the Iceland State
Trading Center, each unit of the x-ray scanning machines from Nuctech
costs only $1.9 million on the average, the resolution read." http://www.abs-cbnnews.com/storypage.aspx?StoryId=111327

Re: FG linked to another alleged overprice
Thats the same equipment from Nuctech but for half the price sold to the Emirates,, about $ 2.4 million
RAK Customs to buy hi-tech container scanner from China
Posted Date: 2/10/2006 12:42:00 PM
Ras Al Khaimah: The
Ras Al Khaimah Customs and Ports Department signed yesterday an Dh.15
million deal with a Chinese firm for the purchase of two hi-tech
container scanning machines.
Shaikh Ahmed bin Saqr Al Qasimi, Chairman of RAK Customs and Ports
Department, signed the agreement with Li Zhijun, Vice-President of
Nuctech Company Limited, for the purchase of the advanced container
scanning system which can inspect cargo containers without opening
them.
Mohammad Al Mehrizi, Director-General of the department, said that the
static scanning machine, which can scan up to 200 containers per hour,
would be installed at the Mina Saqr Port. "The new container scanning
system would complement the development of the modern container
terminal at the Mina Saqr Port," he said.
Mehrizi said that the mobile scanning system would be placed in other
ports and various entry points in the emirate. The mobile system would
be able to scan up to 40 containers per hour.

Re: FG linked to another alleged overprice
In the above link parts of the press statement are missing and the philippine deal at Nuctech´s website is missing WY? I know that my nabors Denmark's customs also buy the same equipment so i called them and ask how much they payed and again it´s less half the price Philippines payed!!! It´s AMACING how the captain of the "Philippines" still can survive this so obvious scams against her fellow people even she personally involved or not she have to know whats going on!! And that her husband ever get close to be involved in this business deals are a a reason enough to wounder where the ship is going? Its not only smoke around FG ,it´s a full volcano eruption DIBA!! i quote: (source) http://www.gmanews.tv/story/79636/Controversies-linked-to-Jose-Miguel-Arroyo ZTE deal is just one of several controversies that have hounded the President's husband. Alleged P50-million payola for telecoms franchise bills In
July 2001, Veronica "Bing" Rodrigo, former correspondence secretary and
friend of President Arroyo, alleged that the First Gentleman received a
P50-million bribe for the President to recall her veto of the franchise
bills of the Philippine Communication Clearinghouse and APC Wireless
Interface Network. Rodrigo retracted her accusations a few days later.
Alleged use of PCSO funds as campaign funds In
October 2001, Robert Rivero, axed consultant of Philippine Charity
Sweepstakes Office, alleged that First Gentleman Mike Arroyo used PCSO
funds in the campaign of certain senatorial candidates and to bribe the
media. He claimed that FG Arroyo paid P20.5 million to Bombo Radyo and
Radio Mindanao Network; the PCSO and lotto draw announcements did not
air in these stations, although some commentators aired
pro-administration commentaries. The PCSO publicity department denied
Rivero's accusations. Designation as OFW envoy In
December 2002, President Arroyo designated Mike Arroyo as an OFW envoy
so he could represent her in the countries she could not visit.
However, critics assailed Arroyo's announcement when they learned that
his activities as OFW envoy could be funded by a proposed overseas
workers legal assistance fund. They feared that the Arroyo couple would
use the funds for her 2004 campaign.
While the President did not recall her husband's designation, the first gentleman voluntarily resigned. Jose Pidal expose Sen.
Panfilo Lacson's Jose Pidal expose in 2003 further cast First Gentleman
Arroyo in bad light. Lacson accused First Gentleman Arroyo of
maintaining secret bank accounts to launder money from campaign
contributions for the 1998 vice presidential bid of Gloria Arroyo. First
Gentleman Arroyo denied the allegations. His brother, Ignacio "Iggy"
Arroyo took up the cudgels for him and claimed to be "Jose Pidal"
before clamming up and invoking his "right to privacy" during a Senate
investigation. Friend's involvement in importation of rotten rice Indian
trader Kishore Hemlani, allegedly a close friend of First Gentleman
Arroyo, also figured that year in a contract involving the importation
of 600,000 metric tons of rotten rice worth P9.5 million from India. Stay in an expensive Las Vegas suite In
2005, First Gentleman Arroyo drew criticism for staying in a
$20,000-a-night MGM Grand Villa in Las Vegas, Nevada, during a Manny
Pacquiao-Erik Morales boxing match. Arroyo’s camp said the
accommodation was complimentary and not paid for by public funds. Alleged receipt of jueteng payola In
the same year, witnesses at the Senate hearings on jueteng claimed that
First Gentleman Arroyo received protection money for the illegal
numbers game. The First Gentleman denied the allegations and left the
country momentarily to help "remove distractions and doubts from
people’s minds" on President Arroyo's ability to run the government.
The Palace, then embattled with both the jueteng and "Hello Garci"
controversies, dismissed the accusations against the First Gentleman as
mere concoctions by those who wanted to oust the President. Friend's involvement in fertilizer fund scam In
2006, the Senate wrapped up a series of hearings on the fertilizer fund
scam and concluded that First Gentleman Arroyo's close friend and
fellow Makati Rotarian Agriculture Undersecretary Jocelyn “Joc-Joc"
Bolante diverted agricultural funds to the 2004 electoral campaign of
President Arroyo. Alleged existence of multi-million dollar German bank account Later
that year, then opposition Rep. Alan Peter Cayetano claimed that a
member of the Arroyo family maintained a bank account in Germany
amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars. First Gentleman Arroyo
flew to Germany and secured a certification from the bank to disprove
Cayetano's claims. Upon his return, sought Cayetano's expulsion from
Congress. - GMA News Research

Nicolette, I wasn’t comparing the shoe collection to an equivalent figure. Of course I know that billions can buy a lot of shoes. You did not get the gist of my message. I was citing the similarity of their actions. Spouse taking advantage of their closeness to the President!

While the President did not recall her husband's designation, the first gentleman voluntarily resigned. Jose Pidal expose Sen.Panfilo Lacson's Jose Pidal expose in 2003 further cast First GentlemanArroyo in bad light. Lacson accused First Gentleman Arroyo ofmaintaining secret bank accounts to launder money from campaigncontributions for the 1998 vice presidential bid of Gloria Arroyo. FirstGentleman Arroyo denied the allegations. His brother, Ignacio "Iggy"Arroyo took up the cudgels for him and claimed to be "Jose Pidal"before clamming up and invoking his "right to privacy" during a Senateinvestigation. Friend's involvement in importation of rotten rice Indiantrader Kishore Hemlani, allegedly a close friend of First GentlemanArroyo, also figured that year in a contract involving the importationof 600,000 metric tons of rotten rice worth P9.5 million from India. Stay in an expensive Las Vegas suite In2005, First Gentleman Arroyo drew criticism for staying in a$20,000-a-night MGM Grand Villa in Las Vegas, Nevada, during a MannyPacquiao-Erik Morales boxing match. Arroyo’s camp said theaccommodation was complimentary and not paid for by public funds. Alleged receipt of jueteng payola Inthe same year, witnesses at the Senate hearings on jueteng claimed thatFirst Gentleman Arroyo received protection money for the illegalnumbers game. The First Gentleman denied the allegations and left thecountry momentarily to help "remove distractions and doubts frompeople’s minds" on President Arroyo's ability to run the government.The Palace, then embattled with both the jueteng and "Hello Garci"controversies, dismissed the accusations against the First Gentleman asmere concoctions by those who wanted to oust the President. Friend's involvement in fertilizer fund scam In2006, the Senate wrapped up a series of hearings on the fertilizer fundscam and concluded that First Gentleman Arroyo's close friend andfellow Makati Rotarian Agriculture Undersecretary Jocelyn “Joc-Joc"Bolante diverted agricultural funds to the 2004 electoral campaign ofPresident Arroyo. Alleged existence of multi-million dollar German bank account Laterthat year, then opposition Rep. Alan Peter Cayetano claimed that amember of the Arroyo family maintained a bank account in Germanyamounting to hundreds of millions of dollars. First Gentleman Arroyoflew to Germany and secured a certification from the bank to disproveCayetano's claims. Upon his return, sought Cayetano's expulsion fromCongress. - GMA News Research
I heard this news from Madrigal last week...but it doesn't surprise me anymore to know that FG is again involved.... Accdg. to this public official (forgot to get his name) it's just a COINCIDENCE that FG was also in China when they closed the deal!!!!!!! FG together with Abalos were also partners in that anomalous automated machine transaction but Ombudsman acquitted the two of them... what else is new? Yep, nothing’s new. Just another case of a Presidential spouse taking advantage of their position. Remember that lady with the shoe collection?
FOR YOU MAYBE, BUT FOR US IT'S SOMETHING NEW! IMELDA MARCOS' 3000 PAIRS OF SHOES IS NO MATCH ON THOSE ANOMALIES INVOLVING FG ARROYO... DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY PAIRS OF SHOES YOU CAN BUY IN BILLIONS AND BILLIONS AND BILLIONS AND BILLIONS AND BILLIONS AND BILLIONS AND BILLIONS AND BILLIONS OF PESOS/DOLLARS?
Nicolette, I wasn’t comparing the shoe collection to an equivalent figure. Of course I know that billions can buy a lot of shoes. You did not get the gist of my message. I was citing the similarity of their actions. Spouse taking advantage of their closeness to the President!
I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN, I WAS JUST KIDDING ABOUT THE 3,000 PAIRS OF SHOES... GMA AND HER HUSBAND SHOULD BE PUT BEHIND BARS THAT'S WHERE THEY BELONG!

A lot of our politicians belong behind bars, but look where they are. Freely walking around and still being adored by their blind followers. As you say, “Only in the Philippines.”
A journey always starts with the first step.
