Making a statement

detained

Rodolfo “Jun” Lozada, a star witness in the $329 mil-lion NBN/ZTE deal, could have easily posted P6,000 bail in the perjury case filed by Gloria Arroyo’s former chief of staff, Mike Defensor to avoid arrest.

But he did not, as a sign of protest. “This is the only way I can mount a protest that is not against the law,” he said.

Lozada is now confined in a small room, non-airconditioned at the second floor of the Manila Police headquarters on UN Avenue. Judge Emmanuel Lorredo of the Metropolitan Trial Court Branch 26 who issued the arrest warrant suddenly went on leave yesterday so the arraignment was re-scheduled on May 7.

On May 7, Lorredo could either dismiss the case, order Lozada’s transfer to the city jail, or order further investigation. If it’s the third option, Lozada would be released.

Meanwhile, Lozada sleeps in a sofa in that room. His guardian angels, Sisters Mary John Mananzan and Estrella Castallone accompanied him.

A steady stream of visitors keep Lozada company. Among them Sen. Peter Cayetano, who was chair of the Blue Ribbon Committee that investigated the NBN/ZTE, Sen. Mar Roxas, Rep. TG Guingona, Akbayan Rep. Etta Rosales and former Sen. Ramon Magsaysay Jr.

Defensor’s case against Lozada stemmed from the latter’s revelation during the Senate hearings that Arroyo’s former chief of staff gave him a P50,000 bribe and told him to deny his own statement that he was kidnapped upon his arrival at the NAIA airport from Hong Kong where he went to evade appearance before the Senate Blue Ribbon committee.

Defensor never denied giving Lozada P50,000 in cash although he said it was help for a beleaguered friend.

In a press conference that he called before he took off for a family vacation in the United States, Defensor said two of Arroyo’s men talked to him to withdraw the case. But he said he is determined to pursue the case all the way up to the Supreme Court. “I am doing this for my children because I do not want my name to appear in law books that I was a kidnapper.”

Too late for Defensor to worry about his “kidnapper” tag. He earned that a long time ago when, using a presidential helicopter, he abducted Udong Mahusay, the messenger of Mike Arroyo, husband of Gloria Arroyo, from a safehouse in Tagaytay. Mahusay was giving Sen. Panfilo Lacson information about the Jose Pidal accounts.

In fact, that’s not the only thing that Defensor is infamous for. He will always be remembered for his attempt to deceive the public with an alleged testimony by an audio expert discrediting the revelations in the “Hello Garci” tapes where Arroyo was heard talking to then Comelec Commissioner Virgilio Garcillano of manipulating the results of the election in Muslim Mindanao in her favor.

Two former presidents, Cory Aquino and Joseph Estrada, have issued statements of support.

Estrada said Lozada’s arrest affirms the policy of the Arroyo administration which is to punish those who expose the truth while the acts of the corrupt prevail.

One has simply to look at where the characters in the NBN/ZTE deal are. Former Comelec Chair Benjamin Abalos, who brokered the deal that would have cost the Filipino people P14.8 billion, resigned his post but was never punished.

Romy Neri, the NEDA chief who preferred to keep quite about Gloria Arroyo’s role in the deal is now president of the Social Security System.

Manuel Gaite, deputy executive secretary who gave Lozada P500,000 shopping money in Hong Kong, is now commissioner of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The police officers who were involved in Lozada’s kidnapping have been amply rewarded. Upon retirement, then PNP Chief Avelino Razon was named deputy national security adviser. He is now the presidential adviser on the peace process.

Then Chief Supt. Romeo Hilomen of the Police Security and Protection Office was promoted to the position of Ilocos region police chief a few weeks after the kidnapping incident.

Four months after the abduction, Senior Supt. Paul Mascariñas was awarded his first star promoting him to chief superintendent. He is now deputy regional director for administration in MIMAROPA (Mindoro-Marinduque-Romblon-Palawan).

Under the PNP promotions system, an officer cannot be promoted to a higher rank if he/she has a pending criminal case. Lozada filed a kidnapping case against them, Many are wondering how Hilomen and Mascariñas were able to get a clearance from the Ombudsman.

Lozada said that recently a cabinet official delivered a message from Malacañang: retract everything that you said about the NBN/ZTE deal and you will be given a hefty compensation package.

Lozada said he told the cabinet official, “No way.”

He has also received offers from foreign governments for asylum. But Lozada said he is not walking out on the Filipino people. He said, “If there is anyone who must be asked to leave this country, it is those who have caused its ruin. GMA must go first and the rest of her cabal.”

At this time, when Arroyo has fortified her grip on power, it takes a lot of guts to stand up to those who have no qualms about destroying the country’s democratic institutions.

That’s why I’m so disappointed that outgoing AFP chief Alexander Yano allowed himself and the office of the AFP chief of staff to be treated shabbily by Arroyo. Yano’s term was abbreviated by 44 days to give way to his successor Lt. Gen. Victor Ibrado.

Ibrado’s ascension to the top AFP post paves the way for Lt. Gen. Delfin Bangit to be army chief. Arroyo needs Bangit to contain the 80,000-strong army as she intensifies moves to prolong her hold on power beyond 2010.

Yano was offered the ambassadorship to Brunei to make up for his shortened term. Had Yano declined the post, he would have made a powerful statement against, not only his shabby treatment but the undermining of the military.

By that one single act, Yano would have done the Filipino people service much greater than he would ever accomplish in Brunei.

    It is not often we find a person who has the courage to stand up against this repressive, corrupt government of Gloria Arroyo. Jun Lozada stood his ground, fought for the truth and now ended up going to jail.

    While the rest of Gloria’s cabal and cronies continue to rape our country and throw their weight around.

    Bayan, kailan ba tayo kikilos laban sa kurakot na si Gloria Arroyo???

  2. Baligtad na talaga ang mundo ngayon lalo na sa Pilipinas.Ang mga pusakal namumuno,ang mga nagsasabi ng katotohanan kinukulong!

    What A Crazy World! The Guilty Still Scot-Free! The Innocent Are Imprisoned!

  3. Flippant Quote From An Arroyo:

    “Buwenas si Jun Lozada,nasa Pilipinas siya,kung nasa Saudi siya,naputulan na siya ng dila!”IGGY ARROYO

  4. Mike Defensor is indeed stupid. By charging Lozada and jailing him, he’s doing Lozada a favor. People hates Malacanang a lot more and it makes Lozada more popular to the people. Most of all, he has further gained the sympathy and respect of the people. If in the past they were neutral observers, I’m sure many of them are on Lozada’s side now. May his arrest trigger the final ouster of this Evil Bitch…

    Jun, truth is on your side and this shall be your guiding light to overcome this injustice. Just don’t lose hope. Majority of the Filipinos are supporting you.

    jun lozada, kasama mo ang sambayanang pilipino.

    masuerte na naman ang rehimeng ito sapagkat ang usapin ng political harassment at ang rigodon sa afp hierarchy ay napapantayan o nasasapawan ng isyu ng swine virus,iba talaga may kapit kay taning…sana nga lamang gumising na ang mga pilipino sa mahimbing na pagkakatulog.

    ang pamilya ni jun lozada ay parang mga basang sisiw na nakikisilong sa payong ng mga madre at lumalaban na pilipino…habang ang pamilya niya ay nagtatago at animoy preso sa kabila ng kabayanihang ginawa ay nanatiling matatag ang paninindigan na katotohanan lamang ang tanging pinaglalaban.

    ang kanyang mga anak ay nagkasya na lamang sa compound ng dela salle, samantalang ang mga anak at pamilya ni mightymouse mike defensor ay lumipad patungong US para magbakasyon…habang ang pamilya ni jun lozada ay umaasa lamang sa tulong at pagmamahal ng mga sumusuporta sa katotohanan ay daming local politicos at govt officials na nasa las vegas at manonood ng pacquiao-hatton fights…habang ang pamilya ni jun lozada ay hindi malaman kung saan kukuha ng pera panustos sa kanilang pang-araw-araw, ay hayun ang mga trapos nagsasayang ng pera ng taong bayan at pihadong pupusta pa ng malaki pabor kay pacquiao…

    habang ang mga anak ni mightymouse mike defensor hanggang tenga ang ngiti dahil magbabakasyon na naman sa uS, samantalang ang mga anak ni jun lozada ay takot at pangamba sa kanilang seguridad at kaligtasan.

    yan ang hustisya sa pilipinas pabor sa malacanang mafia at arroyo corrupt-poration…pag bad ka, kampi ka nila at pag good ka, lagot ka.

    maraming gustong magsabi ng katotohanan lalo na sa corruption sa military, sa govt departments at bureaus, at sa trapos at malacanang mafia at arroyo corrupt-poration…pero naunahan ng takot.

    mas garapal na pagkilos at political harassment pa ang magaganap sa mga susunod na araw at panahon, manatiling mapagmatyag, makialam sa mga isyu at kumilos kung kinakailangan.

    sa mga trapos at govt officials na nasa las vegas ngayon, dami nila nasa 70 na halos with their families(yaman talaga ng pinas, economic stimulus pabor sa US at the expense of juan dela cruz money) at umaasang ang milyones nilang pusta kay pacquiao ay madodoble???? umpisa na ng karma ninyo.

    FG takot rin ma-jocjoc sa US kaya kahit atat na atat manood ng pacquiao fight ay magtitiis na lang tutal may live satellite feed naman sa palasyo ni pidal.

    kilos na bayan.

  10. Rose Rose

    Ano kaya ang pakiramdam ng mga anak ni Defensor sa nangyari? Bida ang tatay nila? hindi kaya nila ninatanong ang tatay nila kung ano talaga ang totoo at bakit lumipad kaagad para makatago? I think his children are old enough to see things and question..saan sila pumunta…sa Disneyland? Run Defensor Run! The people will be after you and for your family..for generations to come! Kawawang mga anak!

  11. Rose Rose

    kahit sa sofa lang natutulog si Lozada..he has the peace of mind..because he told the truth..kahit sa ginto pang kama natutulog si Defensor naiinitan siya dahil karga nila ang impierno ni Satanas…The truth will set Jun Lozada free..while lies will set Defensor on fire..the fire of Satan..

  12. Well, seems like we have one guy who’s got balls…

    Neri’s balls were squashed to smitherens long time ago.

    Iggy pagigihin mo ang sinasabi mo…lawit sa kasinungalingan
    dapat sa inyo ay hindi lang dila ang putulin…dapat sa mga gaya ninyo ay tadtarin at itapon sa impierno! Talk some more..

It’s fact of life, ika nga pag ng online ka di mo maiiwasan ang makakuha ng viruses, malware at iba pang dumi kahit na sa pangkariwang gawa lamang. Upang maiwasan at maprotektuhan ang bawat isa nagludsad ang IT world ng Anti-virus (Symantec, Windows Defender, McAffee at iba pa). Pinupuri ko ang congresso at ang senado sa pagtalakay nila sa mga kamalian sa ating bansa, subali’t tila ningas kugon lamang, lagi kong naririnig na sinasabi nila sa mga akusado na ito ay “inquiry lamang” palagay ko ay tama sila. Makabubuti kung magkaroon tayo ng lehitimong sistema ng hustiya na gaganap upang proteksiyunan ang ating karapatan. Kung hindi ay marami pang Losadang mabibilanggo ng walang kalaban-laban.

  15. Glorya Glorya

    Narinig ko kay Mr. Obstakol(Remonde) na sabihin daw ni Lozano kung sino ang nag-alok ng pera sa kanya. Tama siya dapat sabihin lang ni Lozano kung sino pero di ba nagsabi ng pangalan dati si Lozano ano ang ginawa nila … puro kasinungalingan. Puwede ba Ellen pakisabi lang na magsulat na lang siya wag na siyang mag-inglis pa. Sabagay kahit Tagalog baluktot din ang dila.

  16. Glorya Glorya

    EQ, bakit wala sa video si Ramos?

  17. jojovelas2005 jojovelas2005

    Kung gusto ni Defensor malinis ang pangalan niya eh di mag
    star witness siya. Gawain naman niya talaga yan… di ba siya rin nag rescue doon sa witness ni Lacson…yun nga lang this time pumalag si Lozada.

    Kawawa nga yan si Defensor dati kasabayan lang niya si Chiz, Zubiri, at mga spicy boys. Ngayon si Chiz at Zuburi senators na at maari pang maging vice-president si Chiz…siguro talagang naiingit na siya kay Chiz.

    Lozada is one of the few real Filipino patriot. Where’s justice? If the elected officials has the spine to turned their back against the corrupt leaders, they should unite to clean their act (unless they are real dirt bags). If the the elected officials won’t change they way they run Philippines for the betterment, voters “must start taking control of the government” by “getting rid of them” next election. I couldn’t stand how they are governing the country. I always believe that even how corrupt the government during “Marcos Regime”, I think he did a good job over all to the Filipino people. He has a lot of programs and our country was on the top economic boom, during his tenure. We must relearn about those past, and hopefully it will be taken into considerations. Politics in the Philippines now is mind boggling, too many parties and people or voters are confuse about it. You don’t even know who are for real. They are very good in wearing a ” sheep cloak but on top of the sheep cloak it’s “WOLF”! Candidates “talks the talk, but they don’t walk the walk”. Kaya mga mamamayan ay dapat magising sila sa katutuhanan na sinisira ng gobyerno nila ang bansang hinirang. I’m so outrage about what’s going on there. Maraming taong nagkukunwaring gustong tumulong sa nangyari sa American soldier and Nicole, but then, my problem, bakit di nila tulungan ang mga kabataang real victims of pedophiles down there (napanood ko sa T.V. reported by investigative reporter)if those people are not pretentious, they should be looking after the whole problem not for just 1 soldier alone ( what are those so called Senator and Lawyers? Well , I believe that they are like wearing a sheep cloak, but in reality they are Wolf. Kasi nagpapashow off lang sila para ang mga tao ay maging tagahanga sila. Iniisip nila na they could fool all the people about the problem, para botohan sila. Kung talagang malinis ang hangarin nila, di lang ang tungkol sa alleged victim na si Nicole ang ipaglalaban nila kong hindi lahat. I so sick ang tired of “users”. Dapat matuto na pag-aralan kung sino ang tunay at hindi sa any branch of either government or mga gustong sumikat for the purpose to be one of the elected officials someday.

    Buwenas si Iggy -pekeng Jose Pidal, kung nasa Saudi siya, naputulan na siya ng dalawang kamay at saka kanyang burat.

    Nassan si Burjer Abalos? Bakit hindi umu-usad ang kanyang kaso?

  21. saxnviolins saxnviolins

    A perjury conviction cannot be sustained based on the testimony of a sole witness (Defensor). A perjury case ought not to rely on “an oath against another oath” [US v. Weiler 323 U.S. 606 (1945)].

    As a matter of practice, therefore, US prosecutors do not indict for perjury when there is only one witness (the complainant), since they will not get a conviction anyway. Prosecuting without the prospect of a conviction is the very definition of persecution. Then again, that seems to be standard in the Philippines.

    An Open Letter To Our Chief of Staff, AFP

    Sir,

    Consider this situation: Jun Lozada a civilian, decides to undergo: harrasment and threats by a powerful but corrupted group like that of GMA; actual kidnapping; and economic displacement because to resist GMA against her further stealing from our hard earned money and against her further corrupting our institutions, all these to save the core of values of us Filipinos from corruption and so save our nation from disintegration.

    You Sir, a soldier mandated to protect our nation from disintegration, decides to allow this to continue.

    If this is so, between the two of you, who do you think will deserve more to be called BRAVE? Who do you think will deserve more to be called a COWARD?

  24. Elgraciosa Elgraciosa

    JLozada:

    MATAPANG ka! Kaya BILIB kami sa ‘yo! Pinatutunayan mong… ang KAGITINGAN ay nasusukat sa isang PANININDIGAN!
    Naninindigan ka sa KATOTOHANAN at ‘yan ang pagkakaiba mo sa mga Sinungaling, mga Magnanakaw, mga Kriminal at mga mapang-aping LIDER kuno ng ating bansa!!!

    Mabuhay ka, JL!!!

  25. Where’s the outrage over this? Kalakaran na ba talaga sa bansang ito ang pagpaparusa sa matuwid at pagbibiyaya sa masasama?

    Free Jun Lozada Now!

  26. bitchevil bitchevil

    People’s silence is deafening. Despite Cory, Erap and MBC’s call to protest against Jun Lozada’s arrest, people prefer to prepare for the Pacquiao-Hatton fight. Where’s CBCP?

  27. kabute kabute

    What the Philippine justice system is doing to Jun Lozada through this Judge Lorredo is pure injustice. Judge Lorredo went on leave to make J. Lozada stew and accuser “tol” went to the U.S. to watch the Hatton-Pacquiao match. This Judge Lorredo is a very poor judge of character much more of evidence hence his ruling to have J. Lozada arrested.

    On another subject: It seems the first trial balloon to declare a “state of emergency” using the H1N1 (swine flu) pandemic as a pretext has been flown already by DOH Sec. Duque. He says that a “state of emergency” may be declared by government in case of unrest to enable them to fight the spread of the disease. But for all aims and purpose the “state of emergency” will be used by GMA to stay in power beyond 2010. This is a very dangerous game. It is easy for GMA and her gang to simulate and concoct a scenario of unrest and a spread of the H1N1 flu. People can be harmed or hurt or even die just to justify the plan or plot. For sure her evil planners are now making blueprints of this scenario. We should beware of coming events. Baka makalusot.

  28. Bakit kasi walang kumulam kay gloria eh di tapos na ang kalbaryo.

  29. Ken Ken

    Dahan dahan nagigicing na ang taong bayan. 8 yrs is too much for a tyrant to suppress the truth. You’re not alone Jun. The truth shall set you free. One more year na lang at makukulong na rin ang mga Arroyo’t. in every tunnel there’s always an end. we need more heroes now! Our beloved Country needs now an EDSA 4! Gising na kaibigan ko pag-asa ng bansa nasa sayo! What we need now is another Rizal, a fearless Bonifacio, and a new hero like Ninoy.

  30. sampip sampip

    It’s obvious na very calculated and timing ng malacanang sa pag-aresto kay Lozada. Get ready for more kagaguhans na gagawin nila pag nanalo si pacman sa laban niya. ok, i hate to say this but it may be better for the pambansang kamao to lose para sa ikabubuti siguro ng mga pilipino. pls don’t get me wrong here, he will definitely bring pride to the filipinos around the world, but, it’s also raise 100 times the pride and mojo to gloria and her goons to be more unjust/oppressive,etc. let’s face it, kakampi sila ni idol. especially he’s got his political ambitions all set already…

  31. sampip sampip

    Mabuhay ka Jun Lozada! Kahanga hanga ang ginawa mo, as usual.

    As far as si Defensor naman? Wtf dude? KSP ka ba? Now, the only way you’ll win an election is by cheating or buy your own island…
    Your political career is over… The respect you had, well, what’s left of it, is down the drain….

  32. Elgraciosa Elgraciosa

    Kung nasa Pinas ako, join din ako sa mga Madre sa loob ng jail!
    I’ll pray for your safety and deliverance, JunL!

  33. Akala ko ba nililigawan ng mga iba’t ibang partido si Jun Lozada para kumandidato ng Senator.

    Naunahan na sila ni Mike Defensor,ikinumpanya na ni Bingot si Jun Lozada not only for senator,but for President sa 2010.Tiyak na ang panalo ni Jun Lozada kung magtatagal siya sa kulungan kaya nga ayaw niyang mag-piyansa dahil kada segundong pamamalagi niya sa piitan ay nag-mumultiply sina Simpatico at Simpatica na galit na galit kay Gloria.

    Parang Nelson Mandela si Lozada.Takot na takot na si Raul Gonzales kahit siya na raw ang magbayad ng piyansa ni Jun Lozada basta’t lalabas lang siya sa kulungan dahil magiging martyr si Lozada ng Sampayanang Pilipino.Ayan tuloy ang napala ng Gobyernong Arroyo,humukay sila ng multo na katatakutan nila.

  34. nahnah nahnah

    Balitang may nagalok ng 700 milyong piso kay Jun, bumaliktad lamang siya. Sana naitape niya ito o nairecord sa video discreetly, para malakas ang ebidensiya niya. Ang mangyayari nito, iyong NBN case ay nanganak ng ibat iba pang kaso.

  35. Huwag kayong mag-alala kay Jun Lozada sa jail dahil lahat ng mga warden ay mauutusan niya para ipagtimpla siya ng kape,masahe at ibibigay nila sa kanya ang gusto niyang pagkain.Nakatutok yata ang mga press people.Saka may feelings na ang mga pulis at warden na magiging senator iyan o kaya’y presidente.Aba! mahihirapan sila sa promotion kapag nagkataon.

    Kung ako nga naman ang nasa katayuan ni Jun Lozada bakit pa ako magpipiyansa,ano ang gagawin ko sa labas kung jobless na ako.Sa piitan ay sikat ako.Sisipulan ko na lang ang mga warden para ihanda nila ang paligo ko at pagkain.

  36. nahnah,

    Walang utak iyung nakipag-deal kay Jun Lozada ng 700 milyon para bumaligtad.Sa mga ganyang deal na sa laway lang nangaling at kapirasong papel ay para kang nakikipagtawaran sa palengke sa por kilong baboy na walang dalang pera,hindi ka makakauha ng karne kung uutangin mo lang.

    “Show me the money” sabi nga ni Cuba Gooding!

  37. Tuwang-tuwa si JR ko ng nalaman niya sa balita na pupunta sa Vegas ang mahigit na 50 tongressman para manood ng laban ni Hatton-Pakyaw.

    Magkakaroon daw ng especial election para sa 50 vacancy seat ng congress pagkatapos ng boksing ni Pakyaw.

    Tinanong ko siya kung bakit niya nasabi iyun.Ang sagot sa akin.

    I just watch at TFC early this morning:

    There is an appeal in the government that

    they must declare a “Travel Ban” in US and Mexico and the rest of the countries that were affected by the Swine Flu. When I heard about it, it’s going to be a good news because some of our beloved “Trapos” are heading to US to watched the most anticipated fight between Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao and Ricky “The Hitman” Hatton.

    This is our conversation while driving him to middle school.

    Dad: hah… this going to be good. Our beloved “Trapos”are Heading to US to Watch Manny and Ricky Hatton. They going to be infected by this flu and they will all die.

    This people are already “Rich”,they won’t die there.after the fight, they will just pay the customs to escape the “quarantine check” ,then will all gonna die because they are going to carry the disease with them.very bad scenario.they already spent the money of all our hardworking citizens and they just spend it for one night .then, they will carry a disease with them.

    I just nodded my head.

  38. myrna myrna

    tama ka cocoy. bakit nga magpiyansa si lozada, ok naman kalagayan niya siguro sa piitan, kasama nung dalawang madre. nakatututok mga mata ng sambayanan sa warden at ibang guards, kaya tingnan natin. abangan ang susunod na kabanata.

    incidentally, medyo off-topic, pero nagtatanong lang po: has anybody noticed the online version of daily bulletin ngayong araw? hindi ma-access. kakaduda na naman.

  39. kabute kabute

    Senator Lozada – not far fetch. Jun Lozada gets my whole family’s vote, that is if he opts to vie for national public office. Huwag lang pagka-presidente. Magagaling ang campaign staff ni Mr. Lozada. Andyan sila Mike “the liar” Defensor, (In)Justice Sec. Gonzales, SSS Neri, Ex-COMELEC Abalos, Ex-Gen. Razon, and ang numero uno si GMA. Anything this people mouth against Jun Lozada converts to votes (for free). Hinde na sila natuto kay Sen. Trillanes. Di na nila maari pang siraan si Lozada. Immune na siya sa paninira ng sindikatong GMA. Balita nga pala sa Camarines sa distrito ni Dato Arroyo. Ang report ay maili ng mga similya ng niyog sa halagang P50 bawat isa, subalit ang tunay na presyo ay P5 lang bawat isa. May kumita ng maliwanag na P45 sa bawat similya ng niyog dito. Talagang tunay na mana sa magulang. To paraphrase a saying – “Di bubunga ang bayabas ng santol”

  40. Thanks to Leah Navarro for the picture which was taken by Juana Change (Mae Paner).

    Leah said, they were stuck by the irony of “the bitch” smiling while Jun was being processed.

  41. Napansin ko nga Ellen.Mga sutil din pala itong mga Pulis na kumuha ng smug-shot ni Jun Lozada.Ginawa pang background si Monalisa este,Nunalisa.

  42. syria syria

    What do you think is the amount of the anomaly if a Malacanang emissary is offering Lozada P700M just to keep his mouth shut?

    No wonder why this regime was tagged the most corrupt.

  43. myrna,Mahirap talagang intindihin ang laro ng pulitika.Katulad lang iyan ng larong cheese.Pulitika lang naman itong ginagawa nila kay Jun Lozada.Paglubog ng araw sa Manila Bay at sa oras ng bukang liwayway sa Japan,America’s Day naman in Guam,magbeso-beso na naman uli iyang magbestpren na si Bingot at probinsyanong instik.Si-sipsip (sucker) na naman uli si Aling Neri kapag nag-evaporada na ang maharot na reyna ng mga pandak.Kaya siguro kunyari ginagawa ni Bingot ito kay Lozada para magkaisa ang opposition,luluhod si Bingot kay Erap,kaunting padrama ng pang famas,ay forget and forgive na si Asiong Salonga.

    Bata pa itong si Mike Defensor at matarik pa ang bundok na aakyatin niya,kailangan niyang magpatubo ng pakpak para makalipad,magtumbling iyan at sumirko ay ayos na ang buto-buto.Anong malay natin,malayo pa ang election.Habang nagbabangayan ang mga presidentiable ng C-5 at taga.Nabuo ang team nina Defensor-Lozada-De Venecia sa senatorial slate sa 2010.Ala Nicole na naman ang drama sa telenovela.

  44. O kaya’y si Jun Lozada ang gagamitin ni Gloria Arroyo para magkagulo at mag-declare siya ng Martial Law.Tuloy ang ligaya ng mga buwaya at linta sa gobyerno.

  45. I think you got a point, Cocoy. The Evil Bitch might be testing the water to see how people would react on Lozada’s arrest. And if there would be violent rallies, she will declare state of emergency. That’s why Yano was asked to resign much earlier. The timing of his ouster as AFP Chief and Lozada’s arrest is suspicious.

  46. Gabriela Gabriela

    Tuwang-tuwa ang bruha. Ang sarap sabunutan.

    Ito naman si Yano, walang bayag.

  47. Right on! bitchevil.At this moment I’ll remain calm at wait until the 2010 presidential election.If July 2010 Arroyo is still in Malacanang.Gera-Patani na.

  48. syria syria

    On this Lozada issue, we need to be watchful of what the real intentions of the Palace has since I don’t think that they are not dumb enough not to know the if this will result to their disadvantage. We need to figure out what they want to happen and we need to react accordingly. Their probable intentions are,

    1-remind us that whistleblowers will be punished unjustly.
    2-orchestrate destabilization by sabotaging rallies and marches to declare martial law since their Cha-cha plans does not seem to working.
    3-attempting to break Lozada’s morale since he rejected Malacanang’s P700M bribery.

    This issue is already quiet if not for them.

  49. BRAVERY,like cowardice is contagious!

  50. syria syria

    Si FG hindi makakapunta sa laban ni Pakyaw dahil schedule ng kanyang medical check-up – Malakanyang.

    Mas logical ang analysis si Ellen na mukhang may atraso si FG sa US,

    Nakapagtataka, wala naman nagsisita kung bakit hindi siya makakapunta sa US. Heto, mayroon na kaagad silang palusot.

  51. Lat February 4, I did a story for Vera Files on Lozada, one year after.

    These are the first four paragraphs:

    ONE year after he survived abduction by a government team, Rodolfo “Jun” Lozada, a star witness in the aborted $329.5-million national broadband project, finds himself in a curious situation.

    He is in danger of being thrown to jail on charges of perjury and graft filed against him by persons involved in his kidnapping. At the same time, he is also being sent feelers, purportedly from Malacañang, promising him hefty compensation in exchange for a retraction of all that he has said regarding the planned project with the Chinese firm, ZTE Corp. and a public apology to President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo.

    But Lozada told VERA Files in an interview last week, “No way.”

    He said that about three months ago, a Malacañang emissary told him that President Arroyo was willing to welcome him back to the fold, complete with a huge compensation package, if he would publicly apologize to her and take back all that he had revealed about the behind-the-scenes deal with the Chinese firm. Lozada declined the offer.

    Here’s the link to the full article:

    syria,

    Alam mo bang bukod sa excellent planners ang mga aso nina gloria at mike ay meron din silang sex este, sixth sense? Alam kasi nila na bawat laban ni mani pasyaw ay kabuntot din ang nguso ng baboy kaya maaga pa lamang eh meron na silang nakahandang sagot sa hindi itinatanong sa kanila.

    sino ba ang interesado sa kalagayan ng baboy na’yun? Meron ba?

    Sa akin, ang interes ko lamang ay mabalitaan kung kailan namatay sa bulon sa dami ng nilamong akala mo’y laging mauubusan ang masibang baboy na ‘yun!

    Pisting yawa siyang napakalaki ng katawan ay kinakalakal at hindi gustong lumamon mula sa sariling pinagpawisan. Pero, teka, pinapawisan ba ang baboy?

    gabriela, Gen. Yano has balls. He is just a straight soldier. He is honest and humble. He does not even have a decent house like the other military officials have. He bought a land that can be accessed through a dirt road. He has an unfinished house in that land where there is no water and electricity.

    He has the tendency to become one of the Magdalos if only he was a bit crooked. He was against chacha. He did bypassed GMA when he started the war w/ the MILF. GMA was not comfortable with his honest to goodness attitude she had to eased him out early.

    Mukhang asiwang asiwa si GMA sa Yano-Ibrado turnover rites kanina. Nagkakandabulol bulol ang kanyang speech na mukhang wala sa hustong pagiisip. Bakit kaya siya mukhang aburido? Asiwa kaya siya na dahil mukhang nag-ba-backfire ang hakbang nila kay Lozada? O mukhang pinababayaan ng mga Tongressman ang chaha at ayun nasa Las Vegas sila. Isa pa, mukhang palpak pa rin yung ikinakaso ni Bong Villafuerte sa mga Magdalo.

Alam niya na pagkababa niya ng puwesto niya bilang pekeng pangulo ay tuloy siya sa kulungan sa mga kasong plunder, graft, corruption, cheater, betrayal of public trust, treason, perjury at marami pang iba…

    Si pekeng unano ang papalit sa Tanay resthouse noon ni Pangulong Erap at ang mga goons naman niya ay papalitan ang mga Tanay boys. Ganyan ang karma, mas masahol pa kung tumama sa iyo…

    Mukhang yung inaasam asam ng Malakanyang na malaking martsa at rally sa Mendiola ay hindi nangyari. 20 lang ang pumunta kontra 4,500 na pulis. Mukhang mayroon silang planong guluhin itong rally na ito pero buti na lang, 20 lang ang sumali. Sa`mga nangyayari ngayon, mukhang kinukunsinti nila ang gulo.

    Tama lang na pagaralan rin muna ang kilos ng Malakanyang at doon natin ibase ang ating hakbang. Mautak sila kanya dapat ay gamitin rin natin ang ating utak.

    The picture depicts/portray the devil(arroyo) and the angel(jun lozada). Its sad to look at the picture that an smiling devil(arroyo’t) snares at an angel(jun lozada). God knows the suffering of jun lozada and his family. the suffering of all the 56 million filipinos who continue searching for truth & justices. this world and our beloved country had poured with evils from the arroyo’t down to her cohorts. God pls. help jun lozada to strengthen him and his children these days. pls. give him strenght and courage from his prison cell. not only for him but for all those who are suffering in jail in search for truth.

    bible verses:
    John 18:22-
    When he said this, one of the officers standing nearby slapped Jesus on the face and said, “Is that any way to answer the high priest?”

    Sad to say that so many of us suffered when we speak of he truth. Jesus Christ suffred because of the truth.

    I pray that God strengthen jun lozada and be guarded by His angels.

    I pray…

  64. NBN-ZTE broadband deal star witness Rodolfo “Jun” Lozada will remain in a holding cell at the Manila Police District compound for another week as the Manila Metropolitan Trial Court yesterday failed to issue a commitment order.

    Clerk of court Zenaida Reyes-Macabeo said Judge Emmanuel Lorredo of the Manila MTC-Branch 26 was on official leave.

    The court ordered the MPD to bring Lozada on May 7 at 8:30 a.m. for his arraignment.

    …..Isn’t it obvious? Mike Defensor, the accuser, is out of the country after Lozada was arrested while the Judge is now also on leave. A well orchestrated plan to put Lozada in detention leaving him with no legal option. In this evil regime, either they kill you or jail you. That’s Pidal Mafia.

  70. Wow, star witness against corruption dinakip! Onli in da Pilipins. Nakakasuka! Dapat nilang hinuhuli iyong nag-attempt na suhulan si Lozada para hindi tumistigo. Ang bobo naman ng mga nakaupo sa hustisya ng Pilipinas. Never heard ang ganyan injustice in present-day Japan sa totoo lang.

    Over here, hindi puedeng umabuso ang katulad ng isang kriminal na pinapaupo ng mga duwag at bobo gaya sa Pilipinas, at saka dito kundi confirmed di puedeng mag-aasta gaya noong gunggong sa kagawaran ng hustisya sa Pilipinas. Di iyan magtitiyaga ding mag-aarte dahil hindi naman makakakuha ng sueldo kundi confirmed.

    Kung sa Japan iyan, pihado mahaba ang protesta sa harap ng husgado ng mga mismong kasapi ng mga bar associations sa Japan at mga supporters na taumbayan. Sa Pilipinas naman kasi pambihira ang mga katulad nina Atty. Harry Roque na nakikibaka. Karamihan doon sa mga abogago este abogado daw, kurakot din kasi. Ang pangit kasi ng mga orientation sa totoo lang. Sanay sa mga palusot lang!

    Perjury dapat di na krimen sa Pilipinas dahil majority naman sinungaling!!! Ngeeeeeek!

    Kawawang Pilipinas!

  71. he is also being sent feelers, purportedly from Malacañang, promising him hefty compensation in exchange for a retraction of all that he has said regarding the planned project with the Chinese firm, ZTE Corp. and a public apology to President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo.

    But Lozada told VERA Files in an interview last week, “No way.”

    Iyan ang bayani! Kaya ako abot langit ang paghanga ko kay Lozada. Patayin man nila siya, someday, hopefully, makikilala rin siyang bayani.

    I guess, I’ll devote the rest of my life working hard to have this patriot a hero that the youths in the Philippines can emulate. Di nila dapat paresan iyong mga dugong aso temporarily in power presently. May araw din ang mga animal na iyan no doubt!

    Medyo give up na ako sa Pilipinas, but when I think of people like Lozada, sabi ko sa sarili ko, di dapat. Kailangan tulungan ko ang mga natitira pang matatapang at di duwag na mga pilipino na handang magutom para sa dangal at puri ng mga pilipino di gaya noong mga putang pinapahiya ang bansa at lahi nila na ipinapadala ng mga bugaw sa DOLE sa ibang bansa!!! 😛

    Rose, that’s okay. Evil and Bitch mean the same thing. Manila Cardinal Rosales is now behaving like the late Cardinal Sin. He criticized the solons who went to Las Vegas to watch the fight despite the current crisis. He also lambasted the arrest of Lozada and called for the same arrest of those ZTE scam crooks. Why is Rosales only now saying these after nine years of silence? His niece is still working in Malacanang.

    Hayop talaga sa Pinas, yung nagbulgar ng nakawan kinidnap tapos kinulong, yung mga magnanakaw at kidnappers, napopromote pa. Kakasawa na yata a.

    Sa Diyos na lang ba iaasa yan?

  76. Anong klaseng hustisya iyan? Ginagawa according to the wiles and whims ng isang kriminal? Papaanong nalululon ng mga pilipino iyan? Binaboy na ng husto. Iyan ang swine flu ng hustisya ng Pilipinas!

    Iyon na lang tangkang pagsuhol kay Lozada para hindi na siya magtestigo, sa amin iyan krimen na iyan. Hindi titigil ang bar association dito hangga’t di nakukulong ang mga abusadong katulad noong chicken shit na si Defensor. Dapat sa hayup na iyan sina-salvage.

    Kawawang bansa!

  77. Off topic pero sabi ng mga bobo, “Gov’t prepared to call out troops.” Bakit mga sundalo? Dahil ba kasi iyong mga doctor at nurses, etc. ubos na at nasa ibang bansa na as caregivers? Iyan ang kabaliwan sa totoo lang!

    Sobra na! Tama na! Patalsikin na!

  80. Here is the record of the traitorous members of Macapagal clan
    ———————————————-
    -The first Macapagal in history is a datu from Arayat, Juan Macapagal. A grandson of Lakandula, Don Juan was among the principalia during the early Spanish era. He betrayed his own people by assisting the Spaniards quell the Kapampangan and Pangasinan Revolts of 1660 and Ilocano Revolt of 1661. By his handiwork, many natives died. For his services he was handsomely compensated with an encomienda — a.k.a. license to steal, cheat and plunder — and named Maestre Campo General of the natives of Arayat, Candaba and Apalit.

    Two centuries later, the murderous tradition lived on to wreak havoc on the Philippine Revolution of 1896. This time, the Macapagal victim was none other than the venerable Supremo of the Katipunan, Andres Bonifacio. On May 10, 1897, Col. Lazaro Makapagal (Filipino derivative of the name) marched a wounded and hogtied Supremo and his brother, Procopio, up the rugged mountains of Maragondon, Cavite and shot them to death.

    Indeed, duplicity is the Macapagal trade that many decades latter, another scion of the clan, Diosdado Macapagal, even managed to double-cross a master schemer, Ferdinand Marcos. In the 1960s, Diosdado promised the young (then) Senator Marcos the Liberal Party presidential nomination. In return for Marcos’ support, Diosdado declared that he would not seek re-election in 1965 in order to give way to Marcos’ candidacy. However, he reneged on such assurances later. The scheme backfired, however, when Marcos bolted the Liberal Party, joined the Nacionalista and soundly defeated Diosdado in the presidential elections.
    ———————-

    Why do we allow such kind of people to disunite us and betray us and destroy our lives and get money from us.

    I had bad vibes about Erap,like Ms.Madamme Auring and other manghuhula said when he was running so she(Madamme Auring) said that A.Lim is the one who will win so I liked A.Lim instead we should have listened on her,kahit na siniraan siya regarding on the citizenship issue we should had voted A.Lim para so that this thing would not have happened.

    Bilang isang ama (pero hindi ko anak si Mike, kasi ang mga anak ko laging nagsasabi ng totoo), sana magisip siyang mabuti. Kung gusto niyang ipagpatuloy ang political career niya (balita ko gusto niyang kumandidatong mayor ng QC) ay lumayo na siya sa kampo ni GMA. Kung wise siya, dapat ay isipin niyang ang iniidolo niyang kapampangang bulldog ay hanggang june 2010 lang mananatili sa kural niya sa may Pasig. Pag wala na sa poder si GMA, wala na ang ‘powers’ niya. Kanya kanyang langoy na sa mga galamay niya, kasama ka doon Mike. Kaya hanggang maaga, MAGPAKATOTOO ka na. Sayang ang QC city hall magandang pwesto yon…pero di ka makatutuntong doon hanggang ganyan ka. S.A.Y.A.N.G. Siyam na taon din yon tapos baka makarating ka pa sa Malakanyang.

    Lozada could have easily paid the bail and that’s that. But he prefers to make a statement! That is admirable.

    If the elections were done today, Lozada would win it hands down for a position he desires. Aba eh, candidates spend multi-millions to get their names out. Lozada has free publicity.

    Lozada is not a saint either but at least he says so. Hindi katulad ng mga alipores ni pandak na nagmamalinis-linisan! Pwe!

    I just hope though that should Lozada win any position in the government, that he maintains his stand and not be like those who would flip flop. Good example is Cayetano. He fought the pandak and her fatso hubby before and during the 2004 elections only to be soft on them when he got the senate seat.

    There are several useless senators in the Philippine Senate such as Lapid and Revilla. So it is no problem to replace them with the likes of Lozada, Danny Lim, Miranda, Quirubin, Roque, and many more. Individuals with real principle, passion, values and sense of duty to serve the people. Who will prosecute those in power today who are criminals and have violated Philippines Laws. Who can pursue real economic development that shall truly benefit the whole country. Who can pursue peace and development without hurting people and the environment. These are just a few of the monumental tasks that should be attended to enable us as a country to get out of stagnation. And this is what the GMA syndicate fears. Once they are removed from power and replaced with such individuals, all their pretenses, lies and evil deeds will be exposed and them punished in the end.

    kazuki,

    Erap is just incidental, the issue regarding his removal is the disrespect of the ruling class which includes the clergy led by Cardinal Sin and Suck Villegas to the right of the Filipino people to choose their leader. Vox Populi, Vox Dei.

    All our miseries were caused by removing the leader chosen by the people. Erap is not the issue here, but what they did to the right of the masa. By installing a greedy, illegitimate and corrupt Gloria Arroyo, perhaps this is the karma for doing this crime against the people. The civil society played a vital role in causing this change.

    kaibigang maydangalpa…

    diyan lang sa mpd ay lantaran din ang corruption involving hierarchy of pnp, yung cctv monitoring and surveillance center ng mpd was awarded to a start-up korean company at staggering php19M without transparent public bidding.

    the project was awarded to headline trading corp, a company with only 2 small client to be proud of sa cctv and electronic security system and main business is 2-way radio and communication system.
    the said project is only phase 1 of the entire project of mpd for the whole of city of manila. imagine a more experienced company can supply and installed the system at only php 9-10M.
    negotiated project daw because of urgency but the problem is the manner of procurement and the manner of awarding the contract.

    so magtataka pa ba tayo kung bakit ang kapulisan ay piping tagasunod ng rehimeng ito.

    to jun lozada, we support you and we will never stop and continue the fight against corruption.

    mabuhay ka jun lozada!

    at sa mga pilipinong patuloy na naniniwala sa katotohanan, matuwid na pamamahala at patuloy na lumalaban sa corruption mabuhay po kayo.

Ibang policy na kasi ang paiiralin ng US sa Pinas dahil ang focus nila sa SEA ay ang relasyon nito sa China. Tigok na ang mga anti-terrorist hardliners sa Washington. Ibang approach ang paiiralin ng US ngayon laban sa Islamic fundamentalists kaya’t siguradong magbabago ang takbo ng opisyal na relasyon ng Malakanyalang at White House.

    Hinihintay ko ang follow-up ni Obama sa kanyang galit sa mga “kleptocrats with closed fists” na matagal nang dina-draft ng State Dept. Sinimulan na sana ni Bush hindi naman itinuloy. Kaya sa isang taon, o mas maaga pa, ay may bago nang US ambassador, sigurado.

    You posed with your tormentor and that is a sign of downfall. After all these mess, she’ll be in your place to answer everything and beg for your mercy.

  107. I was watching the Disney movie Hunchback of Notre Dame with some kids, and I remembered Lozada. I wondered why the Catholic Church could not give him sanctuary. Was it because the Malacanang patrons from Assumption Convent and Ateneo could give more donations to the nuns and priests?

    Legitimate investors shun us because of the corrupt practices that our public servants have so expertly put into place.
    I had the good fortune of having a conversation with Jun whilst he was in Hong Kong. I would want to share that conversation with you, where Jun talked about his vision and aspiration for the Filipinos and the Philippines, the OFW’s specifically. I would need to get the permission from Ellen for that, and Jun’s as well. It was a touching experience, and we were joined by a lady, who works as a domestic helper.
    Anyways, I have reset my visit to Jun for tomorrow, while the Philippines is on hold watching Pacquiao-Hatton slug it out.
    In the meantime thanks for your support, and I shall print this topic, with all the comments. I would give this to Jun as our present for him to keep him company while he is being held at the detention facility of the MPD. Since I am not sure if he has access to a computer.
    Off topic: Please say a Prayer for full recovery of President Cory Aquino. Thank you.

    kantahin natin sa tono ng awit ni sampaguita:

    panahon na para magsaya
    matatapos na ang problema
    sa pagpipilit nila ng chacha
    taong baya’y nangabuwisit na!

    sobrang siba nina gloria
    lahat gusto’y mapasakanila
    kahit tao’y nagdurusa
    basta’t sila ay pawang masaya.

    di ko sey na sila’y bida
    dahil sila’y walang kwenta
    puro pangakong napapako
    tao’y lagi nilang inuuto!

    mga kumpare ko at mga kumare
    ‘wag kayong bow ng bow
    sa konting limos ‘wag makuntento
    ipaglaban (ang) para sa inyo.

    Ito ay para kay Tol Mike:

    ‘Tol, natatandaan mo pa ba noong araw natin sa peyups? Di ba’t wala kang bukambibig noon kundi maglilingkod ka nang buong husay at katapatan sa bayan kapag natupad ang ambisyon mong maging isang lingkod bayan?

    Noong buuin ninyo ang Spice Boys sa mababang kapulungan ng kongreso, sabi ko sa sarili ko: “narito na ang ipinangako ni Rizal, ang mga batang kasibulang tunay na nagmamahal sa bayan.” Subalit, unti unti ay nanlumo ako sapagkat sa halip na paglilingkod ang inatupag ninyo, lalo na ikaw, ay bakit parang nalihis ‘ata sa inyong layuning ipinaglalaban? Aba’y saan ka ba naman nakakita ng mambabatas na suki ng kahabaan ng Quezon Avenue’t iniidolo ng mga GRO, massage attendants at mga bold starlets?

    Lalo na nitong bandang huling sa halip na katotohanan ang tinatayuan ninyo ay puro katiwalian ang inyong sinasanggalang. Ikaw, si Puchero, si Dayana Tsugirin, aba’y lantad na lantad ang kiling ninyo sa namumunong isinusuka ng tao, ah?

    Pero, bilib din ako sa iyo, matulungin kang kaibigan at galante pa. parang barya lang sa iyo ang tasingkwen mil, eh. ‘Yung padulas mo kay Lozada?

    Pero, hanep ka, Tsong. Suhol mo pala ‘yun para palabasin niyang dehins sila kinidnap ng mga katulad mo’y alipores ng demonyita mong ninang.

    Nakakatulog ka pa ba ng mahimbing? ‘Yang mga anak mo, ano ang pinapangaral mo? Saan mo sinasabing galing ang ibinibigay mo sa kanilang luho? Ang esmi mo, katuwang mo ba sa kasinungalingan upang palabasing modelo kang ama sa inyong mga anak?

    Kunsabagay, wala namang mababagabag sa iyo, eh. Dahil, humiwalay na ako sa iyo. Itinatakwil na kita. Bahala ka na sa sarili mo dahil ayaw kong maging kakutsaba mo sa iyong mga kasinungalingan at kasibaan sa salapi at kapangyarihan kahit pa masira ang buhay at karangalan sampu ng pamilya ng iyong mga naging kaibigan!

    Ayaw kong maging bahagi pagdating ng araw sa iyong kakamting parusa ng karma!

    Ako ang iyong kunsensiya.

    Ang magandang message kay Evilbitch ay ganito siguro:

    “Akin pa rin ang huling halakhak, Bruha!”

    “Bilog ang mundo, Ma’am!”

    Kayo na nga mga ka-blogs ang magdugtong….

  114. If you guys believe in Feng Shui, don’t even display the Evil Bitch’s picture in your office or home.

  115. correction for the post above,i am quite clumsy in posting
    people from metro manila and rizal were once transitional between tagalog and kapampangan during prehispanic and the early part of the hispanic colonization.
    —————-
    I read an article in the internet that says that filipinos are closely related to cantonese(inc. HK Chinese),those chinese in taiwan strait and the ami tribe of taiwan according to DNA analysis.
    http://robertlindsay.wordpress.com/2009/03/16/the-peopling-of-the-philippines/

    ano kaya kung mabasa ni Chip Tsao ito.

  116. Filipinos are more related to Fukienese not Cantonese. Most Fil-Chinese came from the Province of Fujian or Amoy, China who speak Fukienese or similar to Taiwanese in Taiwan.

  117. Parang bastos yata yang Fukien at Canton ano?

  118. That’s right. But it’s more pleasant to hear Canton-Fukien.

  119. @evilbitch
    The ami tribe of taiwan is the most closest relative of filipinos according to genetic data then it was discovered that these ami are also related to guangdongren making filipinos also close to guangdongren just check the link i posted about the peopleing of the philippines.
    actually,filipinos share 53% of their paternal dna with the fujianese.

    Ang daming girls doon sa ateneo na spoiled one of them is Tracy Borres na maldita,spoiled at racist.

    We need to support Mr.Lozada’s cause let’s expose these congress(wo)men and mayors that are allied with the dugong aso.

  120. Who’s that Tracy Burles from Ateneo? Regarding Fukienese, if you look closely at those people from Southern Taiwan and the Northern Ilocanos or Igorots, they look alike.

  124. Maydangalpa, if the article is long, please e-mail it to me first.

  125. Catherine, sorry for the delay in the posting of your comments. When I checked , I sa that the site moderator classified them under “pending”. It waited for my approval.

    This blog is programmed in such a way that the moderator sometimes put comments “under moderation”. It’s random.

    Sorry for that.

  126. Kazuki, although I appreciate bloggers sharing and informing other of information and good articles in other sites, I don’t encourage copying articles or blog entries and pasting it here. Just provide the link.

    I deleted the lengthy, senseless blog entry you copied from another site and pasted here.

    I hope that does not happen again.

  127. Catherine, please refrain from capitalizing your comments. It doesn’t look good. Readers here are intelligent. Even if it’s not capitalized, they understand the message.

    Please take note that I edited your comments and changed the capitalized words to lower case. It’s easier to read.

    Thank you.

  128. Statement of the Whistleblowers Association

    We, the members of the Whistle Blowers Association (WBA), a duly registered organization which strongly support Jun Lozada’s cause of exposing graft and corruption in all sectors of society, are strongly denouncing the harassment, intimidation and oppression he and all members of the association are now experiencing.

    While Jun Lozada is not yet a member of our organization, we are standing behind the cause he is fighting for.

    We urgently call on our honorable legislators to do something to finally end the these oppressions
    we are suffering by immediately enacting a Whistle Blowers’ Protection Act, that will insulate and protect the present and future legitimate whistleblowers from oppression and harassment suits. If there is a law protecting us, no whistleblowers will suffer any of these oppressive acts from the hands of the powerful, rich but corrupt individuals.

    We have been clamoring for this Act since 2005 and it seems nothing is moving. Should we fail to get the support of our legislators, much as we want to be apolitical, we will be forced to enlist and register our organization as a party list to ensure that the real marginalized group of present and future whistle blowers, whose individual objectives are just to expose any wrondoings in the public and private sectors to help have a clean government and society, will get adequate protection that they deserve in law.

    Jun,

    Magpasalamat ka kay Tol Bingotilyong Miyak, ang iyong matalik na kaibigan sapagkat nagkakaroon ka ng libreng publicity. Nagkamali siya sa pagpapakulong sa iyo sa kasalanang dapat ay siya ang nasa katayuan mo sa pag-aakalang tatalikuran ka ng iyong mga tagasuporta.

    Nagtutumibay lalo, sa ginawa nilang ito at sa mga susunod pang hakbang upang gibain ka, ang paniniwala ng sambayanang Pilipino na lahat silang mga bulag na tagasunod ng suwitik na pamilya ay nagtutulongtulong upang mapagtakpan ang mga pagmamalabis at katiwaliang kanilang kinasasangkutan partikular na ang pinamatabang swine-dler sa buong swineworld.

    Thanks Ellen. I shall email to you first. also I am waiting for Jun’s message for Ellenville. I just came from MPD and he extends his appreciation to everyone. No phones, no laptops. I had to deposit my phone to the desk sergeant. Cheers! Para Sa Bayan at Katotohan…..

  131. Thanks Ellen for saying that readers here are intelligent…and that includes me (he, he).

    Jun Lozada’s above photo looks sad and miserable. I can feel his pain. When can he get out of such misery?

    Speaking of government, the US is very serious in picking the next Supreme Court Justice. Pres. Obama has difficulty choosing one. The candidate is being scrutinized. Compare it to this evil Arroyo government that easily appoints anyone to the highest court without any scrutiny. What a difference!

  132. My prayers for you, Mr Jun Lozada, and for your family. May your tribe increase!

  133. Jailed NBN-ZTE star witness Rodolfo Noel Lozada was rushed to a hospital late Tuesday night after experiencing difficulty in breathing, a television report said.

    ….It’s a good thing he was not brought to St. Luke’s. Otherwise, he would be included among those Malacanang crooks who used St. Luke’s as refuge. Of course we believe Lozada is really ill.

  134. Elgraciosa Elgraciosa

    Jun L:

    I’ll continue on praying for you! Pagaling ka…mag-uumpisa pa lang ang 1st round! Marami kang “Backers.” Kasi naniniwala sila sa ‘yo! Si Lord no. 1 DEFENDER mo, o di ba?

    Get well soon, ha?

  135. saxnviolins saxnviolins

    Of course we believe Lozada is really ill.

    But what or who made him ill? Are the nuns checking his food? I do not trust the prison guards. Heart attacks can be induced. In spy lingo, an individual can be “suicided”.

  136. Excuse me…it could be a fake illness to avoid the hardship inside jail. If the Malacanang crooks think only they know how to fake, even heroes like Lozada knows too. It’s a possibility and I’m not saying it’s true. Getting sick and being confined in the hospital have become a common legal strategy.

  137. Correct me if I’m wrong…all throughout Lozada’s stay at La Salle Greenhills and being taken care by the nuns, we never heard about his health condition or problem with breathing. His critics might say…”Ala-Joc Joc”.

  138. parasabayan parasabayan

    BE, natural lang na magkakasakit si Lozada, or anyone who may be going through what he is going through. The stress must be unbearable!

    Under normal circumstances, Lozada may not be ill. But with all these case after case that he is facing, kahit na healthy siya, somehow he will break down too!

  139. I’m with all of you on the side of Lozada. But his illness coincided with his transfer to the jail. My own opinion is that it could have been coached by his lawyer as a legal strategy or for his safety. The only difference is that he did not check in at St. Luke’s but at another hospital. No matter what, I wish him well.

  140. Catherine Catherine

    They are killing Jun Lozada softly. He should not eat the food coming from those (MPPD)Manila Pidal Police Department or from the (PSG)Pidal Security Group.

  141. maydangalpa maydangalpa

    Hi Guys! With all die respect.Jun did get ill. He couldn’t sleep a wink in the cell for all the nights he was there. He couldn’t go toilet either. His body gave in. By the way, he’s been ashmatic all his life, and would often get skin breakouts. I’m sure no one here could sleep there either, it was really hot, congested, and noisy, lumpy mattress, and too many people warning him anything can happen while asleep in a Philippine jail. Too bad, Joc2 and company beat him to it, hehe.

  142. maydangalpa maydangalpa

    DUE respect! Sorry for the typo.
