STATEMENT OF SEN. GUINGONA ON THE ARRIVAL
OF FORMER FIRST GENTLEMAN MIKE ARROYO

We welcome the news that former First Gentleman Mike Arroyo has returned to the country from a medical trip in HongKong. We are looking forward to having him at the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee hearing on Thursday (August 11) to answer allegations that he was the real owner of the second -hand helicopters sold to the Philippine National Police (PNP) at brand new prices in 2009. We would like to assure Mr. Arroyo that he would be given a fair chance to air his side during the Senate Blue Ribbon hearing. We hope that he would take this opportunity to face the allegations against him. As in previous Senate investigations, we would be mindful about his health condition during the proceedings.
