ICYMI: “What is unethical about what I did? I myself was the one who said charge anyone who has done wrong” Senator Bong Go said, emphasizing that there is nothing unethical in fighting corruption while pursuing fairness and due process.
Lao, who has been linked to Go and President Rodrigo Duterte, is being interrogated at the Senate for his role in the procurement of overpriced face masks and face shields from an incorporator with ties to the administration.
Some senators floated the possibility of an ethics complaint being filed against Go as they saw a possibility of wrongdoing in the procurement of the overpriced medical supplies from people — and by people — close to Go and Duterte. But Go insisted that mere association with people being investigated was not enough basis for doing so.
“I’m not hiding anything. So there’s nothing that I have to fear in this issue So, I’m sure, I hope that fairness and due process will always be upheld by us in the Senate,” he added.“I’m ready to be investigated,” he said. “I’m not hiding anything. I have nothing to fear. And you have heard in my speech, I said I have no connections with Lao. He’s a lawyer of the president.”
