Are you a SALN illiterate like me and the majority of the public? A brilliant Duterte supporter will give us a short lecture on the subject matter.

In a Facebook post shared more than 5,000 times and growing as of Sunday afternoon, a brilliant netizen named Regal Olivia will walk us through the confusing and mysterious thingy called “SALN” in response to the mayhem brought about the expose made by Senator Trillanes against Duterte.
It can be recalled that Senator Trillanes accused the survey frontrunner of dishonesty for not declaring a bank account in BPI containing 211 million pesos in 2014.
As per requirement, all government employees are required to declare their properties, net worth and even liabilities in SALN (Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Net worth) every December 31 of the preceding year.
But a netizen who is obviously knowledgeable about SALN’s can’t help but offer his expert opinion on the hot topic called SALN.
As a consequence, netizen Regal Oliva destroyed Senator Trillanes wild claim that Duterte is “dishonest and corrupt” just like VP Binay.
Please read the FULL TEXT of Regal Oliva’s viral post entitled “TIME PA!” to enlighten SALN-illiterate peps like me:
Malacañang wants Duterte to explain undeclared wealth. Who said there is UNDECLARED WEALTH?
Let me explain to you what the SALN is. It is the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and Net Worth (SALN) required from each public officer to be filed on or before April 30 of every year where one declares his/her assets and liabilities as of December 31 of the preceding year.
Again, DECEMBER 31 of the preceding year!!! I repeat, DECEMBER 31 of the preceeding year.
Foremost, what Trillanes exposed was cash in bank as of July 20, 2014.
When Mayor Duterte filed his SALN on April 30, 2015, he declared his assets as of December 31, 2014. Eh naubos na nga nya ang pera!!! Di na natin alam kung ano ang ginastos ni Duterte, EXPENSES are not included in the declaration of the SALN.
If your bank account has a meager balance on December 31, 2014, miski 100 billion pesos pa ang pumasok dyan during the calendar year, ngunit wala ka ng pera on December 31, you can only declare what is inside your bank on that particular date.
Second, the LP’s bark dog, Trillanes alleges that the properties of Duterte may reach 2 billion pesos, and that the good mayor only declared a meager value for the properties.
For the information of everyone, the value of the properties that is asked in the SALN is the ASSESSED VALUE by the Local Assessor and not the Market Value as purchased. And it is public knowledge that the assessed value is almost always ridiculously LOW.
Knowing that Duterte is inevitably winning, I cannot understand why this issue becomes the basis of Trillanes to file a possible impeachment complaint against the mayor.
SO WALANG UNDECLARED WEALTH. WALA!!! Meron lang nag bobo-bobohan at nag tanga-tangahan!
Duterte, as I see it did not violate any laws of undeclaration, misdeclaration or under-declaration in his SALN. This is purely election gimmickry by a soldier who betrayed the Armed Forces and caused the destruction of my favorite hotel in Makati!
Tumahimik ka na Trillanes ipapakain kita sa mga gutom kong barkadang bakla!
Do you find the netizen’s explanation convincing? SHARE if you agree his explanation!
very witty…..
That’s true. The data in the SALN is always as of end of every year.
Rigal Oliva by the way is a lawyer. Thanks
Thanks for the info.

Very well said! Regal is a very intelligent and reliable person. I wonder who’s the big fish behind this? There is a conspiracy into it.

Tama…ginagawa talaga nila mga gungong ang taong pilipino:( RISE UP FILIPINOS AND FIGHT FOR WHAT IS RIGHT. GOD BLESS PHILIPPINES and the new President., Hon. Rodrigo Roa Duterte. Sa Tunay na Pagbabago…Cheers
This is a play of words and rules. Are Duterte’s lawyers and accountants so dumb not even to point this out? This is Bigtime accusation. All sides have threshed this out. Even if truth is written on the wall, blind people of course will not see.
Miss Dublas link above is trying to find out source of leak. At this point everthing else does not matter like when to file SALN etc , except if Duterte had unexplained wealth at any point in time. He earns only less than 80,000 pesos per month. Even gifts constitute bribery. Duterte has dared all of us to level corruption against him previously and everyone believed his cleanliness…well think again why he wad brave to do that. Because sources of his money is mainly not the government’s kitty. Ignorance is not an excuse these days. It is all in the internet if one only chooses not to be blind. God bless the Philippines.
Ok. Ok. You got a point there. That Duterte has almost no money by Dec 31 because he had spent almost all of the P200 million plus he had in his account.
NOW! This question presents itself: Mayor Duterte is a mere mayor whose salary is not even P80,000 per month. WHERE DID HE GET ALL THOSE DEAD PRESIDENTS THAT LIVED IN HIS BPI SAVINGS ACCOUNT? From gifts? Well, it so happened that govt employees are prohibited to accept GARGATUAN GIFTS during their tenure in office, right? So Duterte breaks another existing law!
And did he, btw, paid the right taxes due from those astronomical gifts? IF NOT, and Henares has no record of such tax payments, then DUTERTE has broken another existing law — on taxation, as a TAX-EVADER…. Well, should we vote as our President someone who, aside from confessing to the murder of thousands of people, has the habit of breaking existing laws of our land? ANONG MANGYAYARI SA ATING BANSA KUNG ITONG INCORRIGIBLE LAW-BREAKER NA ITO ANG MAMUMUNO SA ATIN? The Defense Rests, Your Horror.

Nice!. a crystal clear explanation..
Thanks you for sharing your knowledge Regal Oliva, You enlightened The ordinary netizens like me. Xx
mismong survey na ang nagpapakita—all social classes, patok si Mayor Digong. entonces, lahat ay nagkaisa hindi dahil pabigat at parusa sa araw -araw nilang buhay ang SALN ni Mayor Duterte,,,,ang pabigat at parusa sa araw-araw na buhay ng bawat Pilipino, mayaman, mahirap, bata , matanda, girl , boy, bakla, tomboy ay ang mga sumusunod– kawalan ng hanapbuhay at oportunidad para sa lahat,,,kung may trabaho man, sapalaran dahil sa contractualization,,,,penitensyang trafffic,,,,MRT at LRT na laging sira at mga bagon na mas lalong sira,,,,laglag bala sa airport,,,,akyat-bahay,,smuggling,,,riding in tandem,,,holdapers,,,,snatchers,,,,mga drug addict,,,mga pusher ng drugs,,,,palakasan system at graft and corruption sa gobyerno,,,,,mga sirang kalye na hindi na natapo-tpos,,,,mga batas na inuupuan ng mga mambabatas dahil ito ay pabor sa kanilang pansariling interes,,,,,mga abusadong kawani ng gobyerno na akala mo ay mga” kamahalan” na inilagay sa knilang pwesto,,,mababang sweldo ng mga pulis at sundalo samantalang buhay ang kanilang isinusugal sa knilang propesyon,,,,mababang pasahod sa mga guro na karamihan ay nawawalan na rin ng ganang magturo,,,,,,mga naghambalang at nakayayamot na mukha ng mga pulitiko sa bawat proyekto sa kanilang nasasakupan samantalang hind naman sa sarili nilang bulsa galing ang ginastos sa mga proyektong ito ,,pera ito ng taong-bayan ,,pero ang gustong palabasin ay utang na loob ng taongbayan na may ginawang proyekto ang pulitikong ito para sa kanila,,,,marami pang iba pero ang ang pinaka-nakapag-rerebolusyon ng damdamin ay ang ,Presidente ng bansa na manhid sa mga problemang ito na pinagdaraanan ng mga mamamayan. Pagkatapos, gusto ninyong mawindang ang mundo namin dahil sa SALN chuchu na yan ni Trillanes??? BAgo pa nagngangawa si Trillanes sa mga reklamo nya, matagal nang isinusumpa ng taong bayan ang gobyernong ipinagtatanggol nya. Nakita na kaya niya ang huling survey? Ang boto ng mga tao para kay Duterte ay nagpapakita lamang ng boto ng sagad na pagkasuklam ng mga Pilipino sa administrasyon ni BS Aquino.
