Re: Complaint-Affidavit of Ivy M.

Rabena,

* Wrong forum. Complaint should be ignored. Ivy M. Rabena should
have brought her case to the local club (Rotary Club of Urdaneta Mid-City),
then the club should bring it to the attention of the cluster Assistant
Governor, then the Assistant Governor brings it to the attention of the
District 3790 Governor.

Items 1 and 3. Ivy M. Rabena has no legal personality to file the said
complaint because she is not a member of Rotary Club of Urdaneta Mid-
City prior to September 30, 2013.

On the same note, Ivy M. Rabena, who claims to be the authorized
representative of the Rotary Club of Urdaneta Mid-City, should prove that
she is a legitimate member of the said club, along with her witnesses
namely:

1. Dir. Alicia Ladrera
2. Dir. Suzette Soriano
3. Dir. Marife Estrada
4. Dir. Josephine Castaos
5. Treas. Ludife Dyanne M. Estrada

Item 22. How can she attest to the truthfulness, correctness, and veracity
of the said Compliant-Affidavit when, aside from being not a member of
Rotary Club of Urdaneta Mid-City, she was not present when these things
she claims to know, has transpired?

Item 10. One-half (1/2) page only. Not one-whole (1) page.
