00:00Like Mary Grace Piatos, more than 1,000 individuals listed and received confidential funds from the Office of the Vice President
00:09were found to have no record of birth in the country.
00:13That is based on a letter sent by the Philippine Statistics Authority
00:17from their study of the 1992 House Committee on Good Government and Public Accountability
00:27which stated that only those who received funds from the OVP
00:31according to the PSA, two-thirds or more than half of this number
00:36have no record of birth and there are only a few who are partially likely to have birth, marriage, and death records.
00:44According to Good Government Panel Chair Joel Chua,
00:48if the names of confidential funds recipients are not found in the Civil Registry,
00:53there is a high possibility that they are not real people
00:56and the OVP may have just watched their acknowledgment receipts.
01:02What's more important is the question here, where did the money go?
01:07And that is also what the committee is currently investigating.
01:10As for the OVP, the first thing that Vice President Sara Duterte
01:15did was to look at the cameras and determined that this is just political.
