Lozada, JdV son taped on P200,000 financing
By Joyce Pangco Pañares

INTERNET surfers got an eavesdropping treat over the weekend after a group calling itself “Patriots for Truth” posted audio clips of purported conversations between Senate witness Rodolfo Lozada Jr. and the controversial businessman-son of former Speaker Jose de Venecia Jr.

In one of the 12 audio clips, a voice that sounded like that of Lozada’s asked another man, who sounded like businessman Joey de Venecia, to provide a “petty cash account” amounting to P200,000 for “whatever the other guys need.”
“We need a petty cash account. Put it in [an automated teller machine account so that] anytime we need it, I don’t have to call you up,” the purported Lozada said in the audio clip that can be accessed at http://www.patriots4truth.blogspot.com.

“We have to keep the balance at around P200,000, so there’s petty cash, so whatever the other guys need, they will have their ATM. They can just withdraw on it and [when it’s reduced] bring it back to P200,000,” the Lozada voice added.

When the voice that was identified as Joey asked Lozada if he could put up the bank account under Lozada’s name, the other voice declined, saying: “Under who’s ever name, I don’t care as long as you give us the ATM so we can withdraw money… Maybe anyone of your guys,” he said.

But the De Venecia voice insisted that the account be under Lozada’s name. “I prefer it is to you. Kilala mo naman ako e [You know me].”

When the two had agreed on setting up the account, the Lozada voice reminded the other that “it will be another story” once the broadband project “gets going.”

“This is just a working petty cash fund, only a revolving fund and nothing else. But after this, it’s your turn. Once this gets going ibang usapan na [it will be another story],” the Lozada voice said in the clip that lasted 1 minute and 41 seconds.

There were 11 other clips of Lozada and De Venecia talking to each other and to other government officials, including Transportation Secretary Leandro Mendoza.

The audio clips were the latest Internet postings featuring conversations that appeared to have been illicitly recorded. Last week, another audio clip was posted in the popular video-sharing network YouTube.

The latest audio clips were posted in Blogger.com, a popular site for Web logs, and a check of the user Patriot for Truth’s account showed that the page was set up only this month. The Web site did not identify the real owners of the account.

In it’s introduction to the 12 audio clips, the group said the clips were only the first in a series they would publish online.

“Jun Lozada has been commended and hailed as a ‘hero’ for testifying before the Senate about the details he supposedly knows about the ZTE-NBN deal. He has portrayed himself as a helpless victim caught in the crossfire of this scandal who was left with no choice but to tell the ‘truth’. But is it really the truth that we are hearing?” the group said in the introduction.

“Is Lozada’s ‘truth’ as unblemished as he claims it to be, or is it tainted by his interpretation of events to suit his needs and purposes? Is he the soft-spoken, helpless victim as he portrays himself to be?

“What is happening now involves the future of our nation. We cannot allow half-truths or twisted versions of the truth to prevail and set off a political crisis, where the Filipino people will end up as the ultimate losers because they have been deprived of what they need to know and misled by so-called ‘reluctant heroes,” the Web site read.

“We, the Patriots for Truth, seek to favor no one. Our mission is to expose the truth, not selective parts of it, but the entire, unsullied truth. A patriot for truth does not seek to save his soul but ends up saving his hide. A patriot for truth is one who is willing to face and accept the truth whoever gets hurt, whatever its outcome,” it added.

“The clips that you are about to hear forms only the first part of our mission. We will continue to seek the truth and expose it to the public. We will remain relentless in our mission. Expect more of the truth to come out in the following days.”

anyway, I don't think lozada said that he was "clean" in fact I think he admitted that he has done things that are not admirable....
