A fake money-changer. Mansions and multi-million donations around the world.\nA new Supplemental Complaint-Affidavit just landed at the Philippine Office of the Ombudsman — and it adds fresh witnesses, new financial trails, and new names to the country's biggest corruption scandal.\nIn this episode, I break down the 104-page complaint and what the filing actually alleges against former House Speaker Ferdinand Martin Romualdez, ex-congressman Elizaldy Co and their accomplices: a cash-kickback scheme tied to flood control projects, a network of shell companies and professional intermediaries accused of moving the money, and new financial intelligence findings that show a massive gap between declared wealth and alleged cash flows.\n⚠️ A note before you listen: these are allegations contained in a legal filing, not a conviction. The respondents have not yet had the opportunity to respond to these allegations.\n🎧 Subscribe on Spotify, Apple and wherever you get your podcasts: On Assignment With Me\n📌 Follow along as this case develops: Subscribe to my YouTube channel and on social media @natashya_g\nCheck out my work and support this podcast: natashyagutierrez.com\n#PhilippineNews #MartinRomualdez #floodcontrol #Corruption #Ombudsman #InvestigativeJournalism #OnAssignmentWithMe","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/acY2pOlBGfJPFNjaOk2EZN93FISg7pvqTYOuEa-SMAw/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS81MGY3/ZTI3N2Q1ZDFhM2Zh/ZTJmZjdmYmVlOWE5/ZGI0Ni5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
