MANILA, Philippines 鈥� The partylist lawmaker who alleged that guns have been shipped to Manila prior to the signing of the P1-billion firearms agreement said Tuesday he only wanted to make sure that what happened with the anomalous helicopter contract won鈥檛 happen with the government鈥檚 procurement of police service firearms.
鈥淵on ang iniiwasan natin dito sa procurement na ito ng Philippine National Police nang sa gayon masiguro natin na above board ito at hindi mangyari yung katulad ng sa helicopter deal,鈥� Agham Party-list Representative Angelo Palmones said in an interview with John Susi of 鈥淪usi sa Balita鈥� on Radio Inquirer 990AM.
Moreover, 聽Palmones said he wanted to determine the loopholes in Republic Act 9184, or the government procurement law, so that amendments could be made and government transactions would push through.
