Laglag-bala issue sensationalized to be used vs. admin –PNoy

President Benigno Aquino III believes that the controversy on the supposed “laglag bala” extortion racket in airports had been “sensationalized” and used by certain groups to put his administration in bad light.
In a coffee meeting with reporters at the sidelines of the ASEAN Summit in Malaysia, Aquino said the statistics presented to him do not necessarily add up to the possibility that an extortion racket exists inside the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA).
“Hindi naman yata ganun ang nangyari. Medyo na-sensationalize at medyo may mga nakinabang na mag-sensationalize niyan. Okay, pero dulo nito, hindi tayo pwedeng dumaan sa haka-haka. Kailangan naman natin hanapan ng pruweba one way or the other, patunayan, ano ba ang tama?” said Aquino.
Aquino said all allegations should be backed with proof as he expressed sympathy toward innocent airport employees who have been affected by the controversy.
“Kapag napatunayan kung ano ‘yung tama, hindi ba kung may guilty parusahan, kung may inosente matanggal naman sa kanya ‘yung stigma na may ginawa siyang kasalanan,” he said.
Aquino said the controversy requires a thorough investigation.
“At ‘yung nagisip na gawing isyu ito, alam rin niya yon. ‘Ang gandang isyu ito, mapapahaba natin ng ganito katagal, hindi masasagot ng matino kaagad. At kapag ganun na hindi nasagot ng ano, papalabasin naman natin ‘hindi nila kaya sagutin’,” he said.
The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) has asked for an extension to complete its probe.
The Senate has already conducted a hearing on the alleged extortion racket, which supposedly targets travelers and OFWs. —Kathrina Charmaine Alvarez/KBK, GMA News

PCG: China’s bullying in West Philippine Sea undermines international law --- Ghio Ong - The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines — Letting China sustain its aggression in the West Philippine Sea would make other countries doubt the strength of international law currently being asserted by the Philippines, Commodore Jay Tarriela of the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) said. “Allowing China to blatantly disregard the established rules-based order threatens the very foundation that we all depend on,” he wrote in a post on X last Tuesday. He added, “If we permit this, countries worldwide may forget why this order was created in the first place. Nations could begin to doubt the significance of adhering to international law if powerful bullies can easily violate it.” Tarriela also said defiance of other countries to a rules-based order would result in the prevalence of cruelty. He wrote, “This could lead us back to a time when might makes right, undermining the global structures that keep human greed, savagery and barbarism in check. Such a scenario would not only invite challenges from aggressive ...

China ships maintain presence in key West Philippine Sea areas --- Michael Punongbayan - The Philippine Star

STAR / Michael Varcas MANILA, Philippines — While Chinese vessels in the West Philippine Sea (WPS) have decreased in number, they have maintained a presence in three key land features where naval and coast guard ships have intensified operations in the past seven days, according to the Philippine Navy. Latest monitoring by the Philippine Navy showed armed ships of the People’s Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) maintaining a menacing presence around the grounded BRP Sierra Madre in Ayungin Shoal, Panatag Shoal and Escoda Shoal.

Social media seen as cause of rising intermarriages --- Helen Flores - The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines — The Commission on Filipinos Overseas (CFO) sees social media as the main reason for the rising number of Filipinos marrying or becoming partners of foreign nationals. In 2022, the CFO recorded 6,854 marriages or partnerships with foreign nationals, a 40.1 percent increase from the 4,891 “intermarriages” recorded in 2021. “First of all, what we see in the increase in the marriage rate of Filipinos or Filipinos with foreign partners is because of social media, (that) is number one; matchings; letters, introduction of their friends,” CFO chairperson Romulo Arugay said at the Bagong Pilipinas Ngayon public briefing yesterday. Arugay said the agency has been registering a high number of intermarriages since 2007, but the figures went down during the COVID-19 pandemic. From over 6,500 Filipinos who married foreign nationals, only 600 are men, he said. Most of them are married to Americans, Japanese, Germans, Canadians and Australians, Arugay said. Arugay warned Fi...
