Text Message of Sen. De Lima to Ronnie Dayan's Daugther Went Viral on Social Media

The former driver-bodyguard of Sen. Leila de Lima, Ronnie Dayan claimed during the House of Representatives hearing that it was the senator who told him to hide and snub the House probe. The message was sent through a text message to Ronnie Dayan's daughter Hannah Mae who also testified.


Ronnie Dayan learned that he was being summoned by the House of Representatives when his daughter told him through a text. He then instructed his daughter to text De Lima about his plan to show up.

Dayan narrated further that his daughter reached out to De Lima, since his former boss stopped communicating with him.

The former boyfriend and bodyguard of Sen. De Lima was quoted as saying "Ang reply niya sa anak ko, 'huwag mo na siyang pa-attend... huwag siyang umattend diyan, pagkakaguluhan lang siya diyan.' Sabi niyang ganun, 'pagtatawanan lang kaming dalawa, magiging kahiya-hiya kami diyan na dalawa," recounted Dayan.

The text message was sent at 6:14 p.m. on October 1, 2016. Dayan disclosed the phone number used to send the message.

According to Ronnie Dayan he really wanted to attend the House Probe but due to the message of Sen. De Lima he decided to keep on hiding until the time when he was arrested by police authorities.

Here's the Messages of Sen. De Lima and Ronnie Dayan's Daughter:

Her text message read: “Hi Tita. Good pm po. Mi pinapatanong po si pa. Mo baket da po mi dumating subpwena sakanya at ano daw po gagawin nia?”

In response, De Lima said via text sent at 6:14 p.m. that day: “Pakisabi sa kanya magtago lang muna sya. Kagagawan yan nila Speaker Alvarez at dikta ni Digong. Pinagpiyestahan lang sya at kaming dalawa kapag mag-appear sya sa hearing na yan.”

Hannah Mae then asked the senator: “Hindi naman po ba sya huhulihin kapag hindi siya pumunta?”

De Lima replied: “Di ba nagtatago naman siya?”

DOF opposes tiered approach to tax on sugary drinks

© Provided by Mediamerge Corporation MONEY- Tax thumbnail The Department of Finance (DOF) is not amenable to Senator Juan Edgardo Angara's suggestion to implement the proposed levy on sugar sweetened beverages via a three-tier system. "We oppose the tiered approach. Meaning 'yung first seven grams will be tax free and then after that would be taxable," Finance Undersecretary Karl Chua said during the Economic Journalists Association of the Philippines (EJAP) Economic Forum in Manila on Friday. Chua note the tiered approach may compel manufacturers to come up with smaller packaging. "So you can drink three of them with no taxes," the Finance official said. It will defeat the purpose of imposing excise tax on sugary drinks as a health measure, he added. During deliberations on the comprehensive tax reform bill, Angara floated the idea of implementing the excise tax on sugar sweetened beverages under a three-tier system to incentivize those who manufactu...

You can pay at a restaurant by smiling at a camera

© Provided by Engadget As easy as it is to make purchases in the era of tap-to-pay services , it's about to get easier still. Alipay (which handles purchases for Chinese shopping giant Alibaba) has launched what it says is the first payment system that uses facial recognition to complete the sale. If you visit one of KFC's KPRO restaurants in Hangzhou, China, you can pay for your panini or salad by smiling at a camera-equipped kiosk -- you need to verify the purchase on your phone, but you don't have to punch in digits or bring your phone up to an NFC reader. The system (Smile to Pay) is purportedly resistant to spoofing with photos and other tricks. It relies on both depth-sensing cameras and a "likeness detection algorithm" to make sure it's really you. Reportedly, the technology is good enough that it can accurately identify people even when they're disguising themselves through makeup or wigs. You shouldn't have to worry about someone buying ...
