The Deadly Foreign Hand in our Elections

These are the guys behind Smartmatic who hold our Philippine election system hostage to foreign interference and dominance,

Antonio Mugica is an electrical engineer and CEO of Smartmatic and George Mark Malloch Brown, a British subject, is the Chairman of the Board.

Antonio Mugica was born in 1974, the same year as Atty. Glenn Chong, so in terms of age they are evenly matched. Glenn Chong has always been at the top of his class. We do not know if the same is true with Antonio Mugica who graduated from Universidad Simón Bolívar in Caracas, Venezuela,

But one of Mr Mugica's claim to fame is that he wrote a children's book In 2010, Húkiti-Túkiti-Tá, written in verse, is a story on healthy eating. The tale is about Hookity-Tookity-Tah, a wizard baker boy who uses his cooking magic to rid his town of a bullying dragon.

Malloch Brown is an operator par excellence.

In late 2002, Malloch Brown offered to assist talks between Hugo Chavez's Bolivarian government and the opposition, who was seeking to begin the process of attempting to recall Chávez a year later. He was involved in the signature collection for the 2004 Venezuela recall.

Malloch Brown also served as a deputy to Kofi Annan the former UN Sec Gen where he publicly defended handling of the Oil-for-Food Programme by the UN which involved overcompensation amounting to $557 million.and with $310 million from a budget of $1.6 billion that could not be accounted for. Malloch Brown, argued that, the financial discrepancies were mostly due to significant waste with only narrow instances of fraud.

Malloch Brown has been closely associated with billionaire speculator George Soros. Working for Refugees International, he was part of the Soros Advisory Committee on Bosnia in 1993-94.

Malloch Brown was the lead international partner at the US-based Sawyer-Miller Group communications consultancy from 1986 to 1994.He focused much of his public relations energies on advising politicians in Latin America. And that is how he connected with these Venezuelans.

He advised Gonzalo Sánchez de Lozada's 1989 presidential campaign in Bolivia. In Peru, he assisted Mario Vargas Llosa with his 1990 presidential campaign, though Vargas Llosa did not heed his advice and lost to Alberto Fujimori despite having an initial lead in polls. In Chile, Malloch Brown advised the opposition in its successful challenge to former dictator Augusto Pinochet. In Colombia, he advised the government on how to shed "its image as the political wing of the Medellin cartel".

In the Philippines, Malloch Brown worked with Corazon Aquino in the campaign against the Ferdinand Marcos dictatorship. On election day, Malloch Brown wrote Aquino's victory speech which she recited days before voting results were to be released since her campaign assumed that Marcos claim victory as well. He stated that an "outstanding accomplishment during the Cory campaign was to produce an exit poll that indicated that she had won" since other polls released showed that Aquino had been less popular than Marcos. Since then, it has been reported that Malloch Brown has formed a close relationship with the Aquino family and Corazon's son Benigno Aquino III.

Malloch Brown became chairman of the board of directors of SGO Corporation Limited, a holding company whose primary asset is the election technology and voting machine manufacturer Smartmatic, in 2014.

Citing Malloch Brown's former and present relationship with politicians in the Philippines as well as his role in Smartmatic, the IBON Foundation, criticized him as being "a foreigner who made a career out of influencing elections".

For a guy like Malloch Brown taking care of a problem like Glenn Chong would be small potatoes. So we concerned Filipinos should do everything to help Glenn.
