Senate Blue Ribbon Committee Chairman Richard Gordon has asked the help of China in the investigation into the smuggling of over P 6-billion worth of illegal drugs. It was the National Narcotics Control Commission (NNCC) of China that alerted government authorities about the shipment of 600 kilos of shabu from China into the Philippines. The Senate hearing on the shipment of illegal drugs continues. Gordon pleaded to Faeldon to just address him and not Trillanes when he replies to questions. Trillanes had threatened to cite Faeldon in contempt if he would refuse to answer his questions.
