“Marami can conduct an investigation,” Barbers said in an interview.
Barbers referred to the Quad Committee composed of the House of Representatives' committees on Dangerous Drugs, Public Order and Safety, Human Rights and Public Accounts, which is tasked with investigating the connection between illegal Philippine gambling companies (POGOs), drug trafficking and EJKs.
“Lahat po nang gustong magsabi ng katotohanan dito sa ating committee hearings na gagawin ng quad comm, welcome na welcome po 'yan at 'yan po ay tatanggapin natin,” he said.
