00:00Okay.
00:03Sinabi kahapon ni Attorney Poa
00:07na binagitan niya ata yung circular,
00:11Coa Circular ng 1992, if I'm not mistaken,
00:15na hindi dapat banggitin yung pangalan ng mga recipient
00:21dahil for reasons of security and national security,
00:26security ng tao ng recipients and national security.
00:30Would it compromise sa tingin po ninyo
00:32yung security ng informant
00:36kung hihinga nyo sila ng resibo
00:38patungkol sa mga gamot na natanggap nila
00:40mula sa confidential funds?

00:49when it comes to the official receipt
00:50and the sales invoice po.
00:54Correct.
00:55Alimbawa, resibo, bumili ng maintenance or antibiotics,
00:59yung gano'ng klaseng receipt dapat iba ang hinihingi nyo.
01:02Yes po, Your Honor.
01:03Pero ang sinasabi nila ay yun daw ay magdi-geopardize
01:06ng magkakaroon ng problema sa national security.
01:09Actually, yung minention po nila na circular,
01:12which is yung 1999, is already repealed na.
01:15Repealed na.
01:15Opo.
01:16Pero just the same.
01:17Sa tingin nyo pa, yung pagbibili ng chichiria
01:19o pagbili ng shampoo o suka sa sari-sari store,
01:24would that jeopardize the national security
01:27kapag iyan ay binulugan sa inyo,
01:29binigang ka ng SIBO?
01:30Ay, hindi po.
