 Summary of Charges
a. Villar, using his position in the
government and with conflict of
interest, caused the change of the
alignment of the planned C5 road
extension by proposing, initiating
and funding the construction of the
Las Pinas-Paranaque Link Road and
the C5 road extension project which
passed through properties of his
corporations.
b. Villar, as chairman of Senate Committee on
Finance, and later, Senate President, caused
the appropriation of public funds for the
construction of the Las Pinas-Paranaque Link
Road and the C5 Road Extension project.
Furthermore, Villar knowingly and wilfully
made a P200,000,000 insertion in the 2008
National Budget for the said project, including
payment for road-right-of-way, at a time when
his corporations had collectibles from the
government for unpaid road-right-of-way
compensation
c. Villar, through corporations that he
owned and controlled, sold
overpriced parcels of land to the
government as road-right-of-way for
the Las Pinas-Paranaque Link Road
through the use of falsified Bureau of
Internal Revenue Certifications on
zonal valuation to the great
detriment of the government and the
Filipino people
d. Villar, in causing the realignment of the C5
Road Extension, also caused the government
to incur unnecessary and additional
expenditures in the aggregate amount of
P3,764,799,130.35 and further, caused the
loss of P1,850,000,000 that was already paid
by the government for the acquisition of
lands to be used as road-right-of-way of the
originally planned C5 Road Extension Project
e. Villar failed to divest of his interests
and stockholdings in Adelfa
Properties, Inc. and Golden Haven
Memorial Park, Inc. and Brittany
Corporation, which corporations have
tremendously benefited from the re-
aligned C5 Road Extension and the
construction of the Las Pinas-
Paranaque Link Road and C5 Road
Extension Project

“MR. FRANCISCO. Okay. Now, were you able to discuss this P200 million redundant appropriation with
your Department Secretary?
• MR. TAYAO. I still remember when we received the list for the 2008 budget, nakita po naming iyon na
mayroon ngang similarity iyong release na P200 million. So ang pagka-alam po ng Department,
especially the National Capital Region being the implementor of projects within Metro Manila, medyo
hindi ho namin alam iyong another P200 million. Only the first P200 million ang alam namin. In most
likelihood, even the Department, hindi rin po nila alam iyong another P200 million, your Honor.

• MR. FRANCISCO. What was the reaction of Secretary Ebdane when he learned about this redundant P200
million item in the 2008 budget?
• MR. TAYAO. Ang pagkadinig ko po noon, sabi n’ya “Hindi ika natin problema iyan.” Meaning, hindi naming
alam. The DPWH doesn’t know about the 200 million, Your Honor.

• MR. FRANCISCO. So, you did not request the office of Senator Manny Villar or Senator Manny Villar to fund
an additional 200 million for the C-5 Road Extension Project?
• MR. TAYAO. As far as I know, wala po kasi alam na namin mayroong 200 million. The 200 million is
included as part of the ceiling of the DPWH. Mayroon po kasing corresponding ceiling kada departamento.
In the case of NCR, binigyan po kami ng ceiling na ganon lang so we will not exceed – we cannot exceed
with that ceiling. The 200 million po ang kasama.

• MR. FRANCISCO. Noong sinasabi mong -- sinabi ni Secretary Ebdane, “Problema na nila ‘yon,” ano ang
ibig mong sabihin?
• MR. TAYAO. Ang ibig ko hong sabihin, ang sabi ni Secretary inasmuch as hindi naman po niya alam ‘yan
from the very start, maybe ‘yong — actually para bang bicam po yata ‘yong nabanggit pa niya, eh.

• MR. TAYAO. It’s — hindi na.
• SEN. LACSON. One quick question, Mr. Chairman.

million kasi nga nagpe-pertain ito - nagre-refer sa parehong kalye, ano po ang ginawa niyo doon sa
-- kasi nandoon na sa budget, eh. Ano’ng nangyari doon sa pangalawang 200 million?
• MR. TAYAO. Hindi po na-release, Your Honor, the 200. The second 200 million hindi po na-release.
So, ang ginawa ng NCR, mayroon po aming alam na natatandaan ko, we make the necessary
request for possible modification of that 200 million pero hindi naman po nag-materialize ‘yon,
Your Honor.

• SEN. LACSON. So, ‘yong request ninyo sa DBM, na ‘yong redundant 200 million na appropriation ay
ma-modify, mapunta sa ibang proyekto hindi rin na-release ‘yon?
• MR. TAYAO. Hindi rin po Your Honor.

• SEN. LACSON. So that would confirm na talagang doble ang appropriation sa iisang proyekto.
• MR. TAYAO. Parang ganon na nga — parang ganon na nga po. That’s why we made the

(extracted from the
transcript of stenographic

 Villar’s Adelfa and Brittany planned to develop high end
residential buildings in the area traversed by the realigned
C5 Road Extension Project that connected Multinational Rd.
from Sucat Rd.

• “MR. FRANCISCO. Maidagdag ko lang dun, Mr. Adriano,

itong pinag-uusapan ninyo ng Kagalang-galang na
Senador, ito ay yung Doña Josefa Vda. De Santos na lupa
na may pitong ektarya lamang?
• MR. ADRIANO. Opo.

• MR. FRANCISCO. Pero in addition to the seven hectares,

you have other joint venture agreements with other
property owners in this area?
• MR. ADRIANO. We have one, Your Honor. Yes.

• MR. FRANCISCO. You have one. And can you state to the
record what is that joint venture agreement?
• MR. ADRIANO. I think it’s the de Leon family. I’m not --
that is one but I cannot specifically remember the full ...
• MR. FRANCISCO. And how big is the area covered by this joint
venture agreement with the de Leon?
• MR. ADRIANO. If I am not mistaken about 1.7 hectares.

• MR. FRANCISCO. And in addition to the seven hectares under this

Doña Josefa Vda. De Santos, this 1.7 hectares with the de Leon
family, how big is the land holdings of Brittany Corporation in this
area between Sucat Road and Multinational Avenue?
• MR. ADRIANO. Including the joint venture, I would say mga about
mga 9— about 10 to 12 hectares, Your Honor.
• MR. FRANCISCO. Ten to twelve hectares.
xxx xxx

• MR. FRANCISCO. And the intention of Brittany Corporation and Adelfa

Properties Inc. is to develop this 10 to 12 hectares into a subdivision,
right?
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, Your Honor.

• MR. FRANCISCO. And that’s precisely why you entered into joint
venture agreements?
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, Your Honor.
• MR. FRANCISCO. But since this is a 10 to 12 hectares
subdivision, it must be on the high-end?
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, Your Honor.

• MR. FRANCISCO. To make it viable?

• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, Your Honor.

• MR. FRANCISCO. So, you will not just be selling lots at P15,000
per square meter but the price could be higher, right?
• MR ADRIANO. But I think that would be the average, Your
Honor. Fifteen would be the average.

• MR. FRANCISCO. Okay.

• So the idea is that between Sucat Road to Multinational
Avenue, Brittany Corporation and Adelfa Properties Inc. will
develop a high-end subdivision, right?
• MR. ADRIANO. That is the intention, Your Honor.” (TSN dated

 Villar companies likewise plan to develop
high end residential buildings in the area traversed
by the Las Pinas-Paranaque Link Road

• “MR. FRANCISCO. Now, will you state to the record

what is a master plan community?
• MR. ADRIANO. Usually, it’s a plan conceptualized
by the developer with the help of professional
architects and engineers to give basically the
developer an idea in paper what he wants to put up
in the area.

• MR. FRANCISCO. And what are the components of

this master plan community?
• MR. ADRIANO. Well, initially, a master plan
community would just include conceptual plans of
how the area will be developed.
• MR. FRANCISCO. Now, with respect to this master plan
community under this land development agreement, how
many hectares would be needed or this master plan
community?
• MR. ADRIANO. Actually, it’s varying, Your Honor. So there is
no fuss, hard and fast rule as to how big the area would be.

• MR. FRANCISCO. So this master plan community would have

residential components, right?
• MR. ADRIANO. They would have residential component.
They would have commercial components, sometimes, they
would even have institutionalized component.

• MR. FRANCISCO. For the record, Your Honor, we are again

moving to sight this witness for contempt for repeatedly
telling the Honorable Committee that Adelfa Properties,
Incorporated did not have any plan with respect to its
landholdings in the vicinity of the Las Piñas-Parañaque Link
Road.

• MR. FRANCISCO. The question, Your Honor, is very clear. At the last
hearing, you undertook to submit to inform the Honorable
Committee the total landholdings of Adelfa Properties, Inc. in the
vicinity of the Las Piñas-Parañaque Link Road, including those lands
owned by Adelfa Properties, Inc. and those lands which are owned
by other property owners but under joint venture agreement with
Adelfa Properties, Inc. So the question is: How big is the total
landholdings of Adelfa Properties, Inc.?

• THE CHAIRMAN. Gaano daw kalaki—alam mo, pareho lang yung

issue eh. Kung may isang ektarya dun, o may issue na yon. Kung
isang daang ektarya ang nandun, pareho lang ang issue. Anong
problem a —

• MR. ADRIANO. As I mentioned before, Your Honor, I think I

mentioned about an area of approximately, on my personal
knowledge, about 40 hectares, Your Honor. But I still have to get
the exact figures, Your Honor.

right-of-way.

• MR. FRANCISCO. And the C-5 Road Extension will pass through this Lot 2 of 7 hectares, right?
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, Your Honor.

• MR. FRANCISCO. Without the C-5 Road Extension, this is a land-locked lot. Meaning to say, it
has no access to any public road, right?
• MR. ADRIANO. Doña Josefa itself has no access to a public road, but it is adjacent to the
Azalea Realty Estate Corporation which has access to public road, Your Honor.

• MR. FRANCISCO. My question to you, Mr. Witness, is just Lot 2 registered in the name of Doña
Josefa Vda. De Santos, Inc. On its own, it has no access to a public road, right?
• MR. ADRIANO. On its own, no, Your Honor.
• MR. FRANCISCO. But because the C-5 Road Extension will pass through
this 7-hectare property eating up 7,768 square meters, this lot will now
has access to a public road, particularly C-5 Road Extension. Right?
• MR. ADRIANO. With the C-5 Road, it will have access to a public road.

• MR. FRANCISCO. Okay. With the C-5 Road Extension, Adelfa Properties
(sic) does not have to provide another access to a public road under
your joint venture agreement.
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, Your Honor.

• MR. FRANCISCO. Okay. So, by this C-5 Road Extension passing through
this Lot 2 which is under a joint venture agreement, it will now have
access to a public road. Right?

• MR. FRANCISCO. And this was for the amount of P400 million, not P200 million?
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, as I can remember, Your Honor, 400, Your Honor.

• MR. FRANCISCO. Now, prior to making this recommendation of a P400-million

insertion for the C-5 Road Extension Project, you conferred with Senator Manny
Villar, right?
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, of course, sir.

• MR. FRANCISCO. And he was aware of this P400-million insertion, as

recommended by you.
• MR. ADRIANO. He was aware that we were going to recommend a P400-million
additional budget for the C-5, Your Honor.” (TSN dated 29 September 2009,
10:21 a.m., pp. 4-5, 6-7 to 10:31 a.m., p. 1; emphasis supplied)
• THE CHAIRMAN. Why did you recommend 400? What was the basis? Why not half a billion? Why
not 600? Why not 300? Why not 200? Why 400? What’s the technical reason for recommending
400 or not 350, or not zero at all, zero?
• MR. ADRIANO. Yeah. To be honest about it, when I reviewed the 2008 budget...

• THE CHAIRMAN. No, I don’t believe in this to be honest about it, you tell us the truth.
• MR ADRIANO. ...there was already a 200 million allocated in the project. I feel that additional 400
million will go a long way in the completion of the project, Your Honor.

• THE CHAIRMAN. Alam mo ba ang allocation ng Senador?

• MR. ADRIANO. Two hundred.

• THE CHAIRMAN. Two hundred million lang.

• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, 200 million.

• THE CHAIRMAN. Bakit 400 million ang inilagay mo?

• MR. ADRIANO. As I understand, Your Honor, the officers would have, I understand, a bigger
amount that they can, at least, suggest or recommend for amendments to the budget, Your
Honor.

• THE CHAIRMAN. That is correct. But you were recommending more than 400 million, 610 ang
nirerekomenda mo. If you’re really working within the limits of the allocation given to the officers
of the Senate, bakit 610 ang...
• MR. ADRIANO. To me, sir, it’s something like there is a high...

• THE CHAIRMAN. Sabihin mo na lang sa amin.

• MR. ADRIANO. Yeah. There is a high amount that 400--even if they reduce it, then they will give
you something to... We are not really hoping that it will be released the entire amount, Your
Honor.” (TSN dated 29 September 2009, 10:31 a.m., pp. 5-9; emphasis supplied)

barrel for the Las Pinas-Paranaque
Link Road which would benefit his
companies
• “SEN. ROXAS. Ayun. So, I am going to repeat your words – the component of the
C-5 Project is 67 percent of what you recommended to the budget.
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, Your Honor.

• SEN. ROXAS. Okay, so, isn’t that another way of saying, two-thirds or 67 percent
of what the Office of Senator Villar recommended to the budget is made up of this
one project.
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, Your Honor.

• SEN. ROXAS. Okay. Now this one road project, in other parts of the testimony,
even if it helped whatever you are saying it helped, it passes through the
properties that are owned by Senator Villar and/or related interests. Is that not
correct?
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, Your Honor.

• SEN. ROXAS. Okay. So, to put those two thoughts together, two-thirds, 67 percent
of what you recommended and Senator Villar approved as an initiative to the
budget was for one project which happened to pass through properties that he or
related interests owned.
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, Your Honor.” (TSN dated 29 September 2009, 10:41 a.m., p.

 Villar inserted the additional P200M for the C5 Road Extension
Project so that his properties would be paid by the
government as roads-right-of-way
• “MR. FRANCISCO. Mr. Witness, you will confirm that in November 2007, there were many landowners owning lands that were
affected by the C-5 Road Extension Project who were not yet paid?
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, Your Honor.

• MR. FRANCISCO. In fact, Golden Haven Memorial Park, Inc. is one of those landowners who has not been paid by the government for
the road right-of-way of this project?
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, at that time, Your Honor.

• MR. FRANCISCO. And Adelfa Properties, Inc. also has collectibles from the government for this road right-of-way project?
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, they have properties not yet paid, Your Honor.

• MR. FRANCISCO. Yes. And these landowners who are claiming compensation from the government, it was to their interest that they
get paid, right?
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, Your Honor.

• MR. FRANCISCO. But when you proposed this P400 million insertion and you did not specify, as you claimed, that it was for the road
right-of-way or for civil works, you knew that portion of this P400 million insertion could be used to pay the collectibles of Golden
Haven and Adelfa Properties, right?
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, that’s possible, Your Honor.

these insertions to the national budget including the P400 million for the construction of
C-5 Road Extension, Golden Haven and Adelfa Properties, Inc. had collectibles from the
government, right?
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes, Your Honor.

enumerated these insertions to the 2008 national budget, that it is possible that a portion
of this P400 million would be used for the payment of the road right-of-way claims of
Adelfa Properties, Inc. and Golden Haven Memorial Park, right?

• MR. FRANCISCO. Okay.
• So, all in all, these three companies will now have receivables from the government of 93
million plus 31 million, that’s 120 million plus about 2 million. So, these three companies
on these three transactions alone will have receivables from the government of P125
million or about that amount, right?
• MR. ADRIANO. Based on the zonal values you mentioned, I think that will be more or less
the amount, yes.

• MR. FRANCISCO. And this P125 million compensation will be requiring funding from the
national government, right?
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes.

• MR. FRANCISCO. And the only way to fund this P125 million is through appropriations in
the national budget, right?
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes.

• MR. FRANCISCO. Now, from Sucat Road to Multinational Avenue, as you have testified
earlier, Brittany Corporation and Adelfa Properties have receivables of P125 million, right?
• MR. ADRIANO. Yes.

• MR. FRANCISCO. And that’s about P200 million, right?

for placing such valuation

 Anomalously, Villar properties were sold at
P13,000/sq.m to the government using the
zonal valuation for a street kilometers away
from the area where the said properties
were located
• “MR. FRANCISCO. Okay. Now, you’re telling the Honorable Committee that you used
as basis this 30,000 per square meter…
• MS. BACOD. Yes.

• MR. FRANCISCO. … zonal valuation of commercial properties pertaining to a different

street. Can you read for the record that street?
• MS. BACOD. “B. Aquino Avenue, vicinity is A. Bonifacio; classification –
commercial/residential. The zonal value is 30,000 per square meter.”

• MR. FRANCISCO. Okay. And you will confirm to the Honorable Committee that that
street is not Sucat Road or Dr. A. Santos Avenue, right?
• MS. BACOD. Yes.

• MR. FRANCISCO. In fact, that commercial area at A. Bonifacio is about two kilometers
from the entrance of Sucat Road at Barangay San Dionisio.
• MS. BACOD. Yes. But it’s still under Barangay San Dionisio.” (TSN dated 22
September 2009, 12:33 p.m., pp. 1-2)

• THE CHAIRMAN. Why did you choose a property that is two kilometers away and not
a property also commercial regular that is probably about a hundred meters away
or less than two kilometers away?
• MS. BACOD. But we have, as—we have our goal to meet during our...

• THE CHAIRMAN. That is immaterial. I am talking about the Principle of Taxation. I’ve
been teaching this subject.
• MS. BACOD. Yes.

• THE CHAIRMAN. And you are telling me that you want to be arbitrary simply
because you want to squeeze the highest amount of money from the people even if
it is unjust? No way. That’s not what taxation is.

• THE CHAIRMAN. Correct. But you said that there were also property classified as
commercial regular in San Dionisio with zonal valuation ranging from 10 to 20.
• MS. BACOD. Uh-huh.

• THE CHAIRMAN. You have enough values to use. Why did you select a property
although it is within San Dionisio, it is two kilometers away and the highest one?
Why?
• MS. BACOD. So, maybe we...

• THE CHAIRMAN. Not maybe. Why?

• MS. BACOD. No. I have already cited my reason, that’s for the collection of—to
increase our collection. So, if I made some poor judgment, I am very sorry.
• MR. FRANCISCO. So, if the land is undeveloped, underdeveloped although it has
potential for development into residential, commercial, industrial, but it is not less
than 5,000-square meter, this is raw land, right? Right?
• MS. BACOD. Yes, Your Honor.

• MR. FRANCISCO. And the classification should be general purpose. And in

Barangay San Dionisio—again, going back to this zonal valuation under this
Department Order No. 16-98, how much is the zonal valuation for general
purpose? How much is the zonal valuation of a new classification of general
purpose.
• MS. BACOD. Three thousand, Your Honor.

• MR. FRANCISCO. Three thousand pesos per square meter.

• MS. BACOD. Yes, Your Honor.

• MR. FRANCISCO. Yes. And as testified earlier by Engr. Adriano, this lot at the time
you issued the certification was undeveloped, vacant and had an area of 10,213
square meters because it: has not been subdivided, right?
• MS. BACOD. Yes.

• MR. FRANCISCO. Now—okay, you did not check the—you did not verify if the lands
in Ninoy Aquino in the vicinity of A. Bonifacio and the land in Sucat Road are of
similar conditions.
