A lawyer has filed a graft complaint against Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority (SBMA) administrator and chair Wilma Eisma for conflict of interest over her supposed stake in one of the freeport鈥檚 locators.
In a complaint filed in the Ombudsman on Monday, Raymund Palad accused Eisma of being a stockholder of Teco (Philippines) 3C & Appliances, Inc. and of sitting on its board.
The lawyer submitted Teco鈥檚 general information sheet as evidence of Eisma鈥檚 failure to divest from the business.
鈥淭here鈥檚 nothing irregular about it. It鈥檚 very funny because I hold [the position of Teco board director] in my official capacity as SBMA representative,鈥� Eisma said, adding that the SBMA owned 49 percent of the Subic Bay Development and Management Corp. Inc., where Teco is a locator.
鈥淚鈥檓 the official representative of the agency to the company,鈥� she said. 鈥擵ince F. Nonato and Allan Macatuno
