increase?

In her Sunday radio program (dzXL), Robredo explained that there was an increase in
her assets after her mother’s death as her siblings are already based abroad and she is
the only one left in the Philippines.

The Vice President’s liabilities remained at P11.9 million.

The Office of the Vice President released a copy of Robredo’s SALN upon ABS-CBN’s
request, pursuant to Executive Order No. 2 on the Freedom of Information signed by
President Rodrigo Duterte in 2016.

The OVP noted that it is releasing a copy of Robredo’s SALN in the interest of
transparency, although the document is in the official custody of the Office of the
Ombudsman based on Section 8 of Republic Act No. 6713 or the Code of Conduct and
Ethical Standards for Public Officials and Employees and Section 3 of the Ombudsman
Memorandum Circular No. 03-12 s. 2012.
