The act would be charged under the Revised Penal Code’s Direct Bribery (Art. 210) rather than Sec. 9 Sec. 9 applies only to passive acceptance by public officers; active bribery by private individuals is not punishable under Sec. 9 Only the bribe-giver is liable under Sec. 9; the officer’s acceptance of the bribe is not punishable under Sec. 9 Both the public officer and the developer are liable under RA 11659 Sec. 9 for Unlawful Acts; the officer's acceptance of the bribe and the donor's offer to give the bribe are each unlawful acts
