Senator Win Gatchalian has filed a resolution seeking an inquiry into the government's readiness to mitigate the impact of the El Niño phenomenon that will likely persist until the first quarter of next year.

He likened this to three men constructing a building, two of whom only saw that they were mixing cement and laying blocks while the third knew that they were not just putting up a structure but helping build a community.
Inihalintulad niya ito sa tatlong lalaki na nagtatayo ng isang gusali: dalawa sa kanila ay nakikita lamang na naghahalo sila ng semento at naglalatag ng mga bloke, habang ang pangatlo ay alam na hindi lamang sila gumagawa ng gusali kundi tumutulong sa pagbuo ng isang komunidad.

Gatchalian said ghost receipts pertain to receipts issued with no or fictitious underlying transactions. In other words, there is no actual sale that took place but a receipt was issued. Fake receipts, on the other hand, are receipts that are not duly authorized by the BIR as they are meant to understate the sales.
Sinabi ni Gatchalian na ang mga ghost receipts ay tumutukoy sa mga resibo na inisyu na walang pinagbabatayan na mga transaksyon. Sa madaling salita, walang aktuwal na bentahan na nangyari pero may inilabas na resibo. Ang mga pekeng resibo naman, sa kabilang banda, ay mga resibo na hindi awtorisado ng BIR dahil ang nilalagay dito ay mas maliit na halaga ng benta.

By repeatedly invoking executive privilege and the sub judice rule during the Senate's hearing last week, the government witnesses appeared to be hiding essential facts. Beyond their constant narrative that the Philippines was simply complying with its international commitments, a deliberate effort to obscure the truth only gave rise to ever greater suspicion that the Constitution may have been disregarded and our sovereignty diminished by the arrest of former President Rodrigo Roa Duterte.
Sa patuloy nilang pagbanggit ng executive privilege at sub judice rule — kahit sa mga pagkakataong walang malinaw na kaugnayan ang mga ito sa tanong na ibinabato — ang mga kinatawan ng gobyerno sa pagdinig ng Senado noong nakaraang linggo ay mistulang nagtatago ng mahahalagang katotohanan. Paulit-ulit nilang hirit — sumusunod lamang ang bansa sa pandaigdigang kasunduan.
