Senator Risa Hontiveros urged Sugar Regulatory Administration chief David Thaddeus Alba to “come out and speak his truth.” | fargosinoinq
However, she claimed that the circumstances of Alba’s decision suggest that he might have witnessed how the SRA is only used as a rubber stamp “to legitimize the preferential treatment given to all Asians and the other two importers.”
“Basta ang alam natin, sa kabila ng pressure ng DA , ay hindi pumirma si Administrator Alba sa sugar release order para sa mga smuggled na asukal na nakaipit pa rin sa port of Batangas.” Hontiveros wrote. The senator also questioned the function of SRA if the government would continuously allow traders to violate the agency’s guidelines on sugar importation.
Aside from Alba, she also urged others with vital information to come forward and for the current administration to “strengthen the value chain of agricultural development, not the value chain of corruption.”
