"If you can find [the properties], you can have them."
The words of
Corona ring out to Filipinos everywhere. You never thought that a man with his
credentials (and age) would play hide and seek with you. Corona has about Php
200 M worth of properties according to the Land Registration Authority (LRA) -
most are undeclared in the SALN of Corona.
Corona denied the
allegations, but the prosecution team is determined to push through with it.
The lack of declaration in Corona’s SALN will be Article II of the impeachment case filed against Corona.
Corona’s properties are found in high end subdivisions and
condominiums in Metro Manila. These places are found in Taguig, Makati, and
Quezon City and were acquired between 2004 and 2010. You won’t expect a chief
justice to own these kinds of lots. Corona, however, still denies the
allegations.
