Mr. Witness … you are NAMFREL Chairperson, you are<br />
supposed to monitor the election … pwede mo bang<br />
ipaliwanag sa Kapulungang ito kung … papaano nagkaroon ng<br />
discrepancy ang Election Returns at Certificate of Canvass …<br />
Kung anong nakalagay sa Election Returns, iyon din ang<br />
nakalagay sa Certificates of Canvass, paano ninyo ipaliwanag<br />
kung papaano nakakuha ng zero sina Fernando Poe, Roco,<br />
Villanueva’t Lacson kung mayroon naman pala silang boto sa<br />
isang presinto lang, sa isang presinto lang ng Poona Bayabao<br />
at hindi pa natin nabanggit yung ibang presinto?<br />
MR. DALIDIG: I have been the Chairman of NAMREL since 1992, kaya<br />
sinasabi ko na lahat ng paraan ng pandaraya nangyayari and this<br />
time, iyong nakita namin na ginamit talaga ng election<br />
officers, it is the election officers and the Board of Election<br />
Inspectors yung namimili ng boto doon sa lahat ng lugar<br />
naming para kay GMA. Kaya nang nagkaroon ng canvassing<br />
doon sa Election Return, lumabas talagang totoong nakuhang<br />
boto ng bawat isang kandidato, Pero the election… the COC was<br />
not canvassed publicly, yung local canvassing ginawa ng mga<br />
taong may authority, may responsibility sa election. Kaya<br />
nagkaroon ako ng mga report na my volunteers were not<br />
allowed to see the canvassing sa COC.<br />
ATTY. COLMENARES: Hindi sila pinapasok ng Board of Canvassers?<br />
Ano’ng kwento bakit hindi sila pinayagang makapasok?<br />
MR. DALIDIG: Yes, hindi sila pinayagang makapasok. You know the<br />
election officers even ordered to the soldiers na huwag<br />
papasukin ang NAMFREL dahil alam nila na nagsasabi kami ng<br />
katotohanan at we got also the Election Return pinahabol pa<br />
namin doon sa mga bahay nila. That is why we got these 38<br />
Election Returns out of the 39 municipalities, but in regards<br />
to the COC, nakuha namin iyan, they text which (inaudible) COC<br />
but we only got around 40 COC and SOV.<br />
xxx xxx xxx<br />
ATTY. COLMENARES: Mr. Witness … ano’ng ginawa mo pagkatapos na<br />
malaman mong may nangyaring dayaan sa halalan noong 2004<br />
elections?<br />
MR. DALIDIG: Immediately, I made my report, halos every other day<br />
kung ano’ng nangyari, pinapadala ko yung report ko doon sa<br />
national office, kay Bill Luz, the Secretary-General of the<br />
NAMFREL and Joe Concepcion, the Chairman of the<br />
NAMFREL … we did a comparative computation on the<br />
Election Return at saka yung COC. Then yun ipinadala<br />
naming sa national office to prove what goes on during the<br />
elections. Marami akong ebidensiya … may irregularities<br />
talagang nangyayari doon sa mga tao ko. Hindi sila pinapasok<br />
ng mga sundalo, yung hindi sila binigyan ng kopya namin sa<br />
