The team presented the Letter of Authority and Mission Order signed by BOC Commissioner Rey Leonardo Guerrero to the Chinese nationals who were at the warehouse. "There is no truth to the reports that the company directly sold Sansure Polymerase Chain Reaction machines and test kits to the Department of Budget and Management , the Central Office Bids and Awards Committee -Department of Health , and PhilHealth," the company said, adding:
“The confusion over the prices of the COVID-19 testing machines sold by Omnibus happened when general statements were made and failed to note that the company was actually offering packages with different inclusions for clients. “Omnibus offered another package that cost P4 million to PS-DBM on May 6 as a Promotional Letter, including Marketing Materials for Budgetary and Reference Quotations. It was a slightly lower price because the machine and NATCH consumables were priced separately. That was the only difference. All other additional costs were included.
“Even with its exclusive distributorship of Sansure products, there are at least three other companies selling Sansure as well. There is no way that Omnibus can corner the industry.
