Dear Sir/Madam,
Kumusta,
I refer to your email response above and point out no such update has been sent to me.
In the meantime the person named, Brian Smith, has posted on YouTube this further video regards his attention to DSWD and which greatly disturbs me personally as in it he directly refers to your four investigating officers as intensely rude people name calling an absent witness in very derogatory terms behind his back.

I somewhat think Sir/Madam, this is highly detrimental to the reputation of your colleagues as well as DSWD as an entity.
I am supplying you this link to see and hear for yourselves how this man represents your staff and now request, pulihog, a copy of the minutes of this meeting in full so as to be able to intelligently pursue this matter , up to the highest levels if necessary as there has been no proper investigation made at all, just apparently a minor Q&A at Barangay Level where no one but himself was present to answer the case against him and how anyone can make a conclusion from one side only is intriguing indeed.
I also request a complete record of the reports from your officers, which would obviously be written and submitted by the aforementioned 4 DSWD staff who apparently attended this meeting?
DSWD have in their files dozens of reports of complaints against this person and the matter of his blatant solicitation for charity events.
A good deal of proof has accompanied these complaints including his own videos and confessions of involvement so do not think his explanation or one video from him of an apparent enquiry will be sufficient for us as honest, law abiding and tax paying expats to allow this man to continue to flout your laws and make us all look bad in the eyes of our Filipino Community.
If you check your files you will see the evidence previously provided not only by myself but many other concerned residents and community members regards this person and his unlicensed solicitations both Internationally online and in Talibon Bohol itself where large sums of kwarta were collected by him, pocketed for his own benefit and all in the guise of Charity.
No tax or any DSWD regulations were even looked at while all this was happening and we will not as separate individuals or a commonly allied group cease in our attempts to allow this to be ignored.
If necessary we shall obtain the information of the meeting and findings via F O I as is our right but I am confident you will reply in the positive with that documentation yourself.
Salamaat,
Kind Regards,
G D Mead.
