Ipinaglaban kahapon ng isang Makabayan solon ang pagsasagawa ng assets at investments audit, gayundin ng lifestyle check sa lahat ng Social Security Systems (SSS) Board member at mga opisyal.
“This is in line to see if indeed that it is only the four SSS executives who are using their positions to enrich themselves,” ayon kay Bayan Muna Party-List Rep. Carlos Zarate.
Ang tinutukoy dito ng Davao-based solon ay sina SSS Executive Vice President for Investments Rizaldy Capulong, VP for Equities Investment Division Reginald Candelaria, Equities Product Development head Ernesto Francisco, Jr., at Actuarial and Risk Management Division chief George Ongkeko, Jr.

“They must remember that they are there to serve the members of the SSS and most of them are political appointees.
They are not there to become rich but to share their supposed skills and talents to the people,” mensahe ni Zarate sa apat na opisyal, na kinasuhan ng serious dishonesty at grave misconduct.
Una rito, ipinagdiinan ni Zarate na kailangang i-freeze ang lahat ng bank at financial accounts ng apat na SSS executive.
“As it is, the salaries and bonuses of SSS officials are already so high compared to other government owned and controlled corporations, so they must do all they can to serve the people honestly,” ani Zarate.
“Milyun-milyon na nga mga sahod at bonuses nila tapos ganito pa ang gagawin, tsaka sasabihin na dapat itaas ang kontribusyon ng mga miyembro, aba mahiya naman sila at harapin ang ginawa nilang kasalanan,” dagdag niya.
