'MARAMING PERANG PASOK AT LABAS'

Financial forensic analyst Alexander Cabrera flagged irregularities in the financial statements of banana chips exporter Cale88, citing substantial money inflows and outflows despite no recorded accounts receivable, accounts payable, or raw material inventory.

Cabrera described the company’s transactions as a “revolving door,” saying money came in and went out while the business continued to report losses. Cale88 is listed as a business interest of Vice President Sara Duterte’s husband, Mans Carpio. (Video courtesy of Senate of the Philippines)

00:00Let's talk about Cali 88. There's supposed to be an importer doon sa mga bansa na nabanggit ko ng mga
00:08banana chips.
00:09Nag-check pa ko sa Bureau of Customs kung sila ba ay meron mga importation documents doon sa mga bansa
00:16na yon na sila nagpalabas ng mga produkto nila.
00:21And then do they have, yung accounts payable nila, accounts receivable, have you examined them?
00:28Yung sa pangalawang tanong na lang po muna, yung sa financial statements po kasi ng Cali 88, marami po talagang
00:37wala po sa tamang hulog po sa financial statement na yon.
00:42Wala po siyang payable, wala po siyang receivable, manufacturer siya o exporter siya ng manufactured goods,
00:51wala po siyang inventory ng raw materials or work in process.
00:58At kahit po gano'ng kalaki po yung perang pumapasok at lumalabas, nananatili po siyang lugi.
01:06Maliit lang po yung kanyang property, plant and equipment.
01:09Kung nagpapatoll man siya ay wala po nakalagay na tolling or manufacturers or tolling manufacturing arrangements po sa disclosure niya
01:19po sa kanyang notes.
01:24Marami pa pong iba eh.
01:26Kasi po yung the way po yung ano na nakakaduda po talaga doon, exporter ka, para mangyari yung wala kang
01:35receivable,
01:37abay pag landing ng goods mo doon eh, nakatanggap ka ng cash.
01:41Meron kang supply chain, malalaki yung mga in-order mo sa supply chain mo.
01:46Ang ibig sabihin ay pagtanggap mo ng produkto eh, parang bumubunot ka ng pitakamot, binabayaran mo ng cash.
01:53So yung nakikita po namin sa Kalyo 88, hindi po tinikling ha, tatawagin kong revolving door.
02:01Pagpasok po ng pera, lumalabas po. Marami pong pera ang pasok at labas.
02:07Yung sa una niyo pong tanong sa customs po, kinanong ko po yun sa prosecution pero hindi ko na po
02:18nasundan kung ano po yung kasagutan doon.
02:21Dahil gusto nga po, kung nga po sanang malaman kung meron talagang tunay na inventory na lumalabas.
02:27Pero isa po yun sa mga tinanong ko rin po.
02:36Yung sa mga tinanong ko rin po.
