Defeatist attitude: Sen. Joel Villanueva, during Tuesday's Committee of the Whole hearing, August 4, 2020, expresses sadness over the apparent defeatist attitude of PhilHealth President and CEO Ricardo Morales in stamping out alleged corruption within the agency. Reacting to Morales' statement that corruption in PhilHealth would continue even if there is a weekly leadership change, he said “we are just starting and yet we are already giving up. I hope that is not your position. That’s the main reason why we are here despite the threats of the pandemic." (Joseph Vidal/Senate PRIB)
