Edited out: Usec Puno to

President Noynoy

2pm hostage crisis “matulog

na kayo…

(“go to sleep already”)


That portion was aired in the

first news broadcast, but

“edited out” (suppresed) in

the latter broadcasts, so i

googled it, it is retained in

some online news

organizations such as Yahoo

News Philippines at

www.ph.news.yahoo.com in

its news story:

DILG usec: Aquino wanted to

talk directly

to hostage-taker – Yahoo


The question is: Why was it

suppressed (censored) in

the succedding broadcasts of

the mainstream, giant media

organizations? Here it is,

the portion of the interview

that was suppressed:

DILG Undersecretary Rico

Puno (the President’s

provincemate and gun-

enthusiast buddy) who was

given unofficially (not in

writing) by President Noynoy

the power to supervise the

police, depriving DILG

Secretary Jesse Robredo

of such function, said in an

interview yesterday (from

Yahoo News Philippines,

click link given above):

quote “ “Naisip niya

(tinutukoy dito ang

Presidente tala ng blog

admin) as early as 2 p.m., ‘Ano

kaya kung pumunta na ako

diyan at sabihin ko (sa

hostage-taker) na marami ka

nang naiistorbong tao at

maraming mawawala sa

atin?‘,” [“He (the President

-blog admin’s note) thought as

early as 2pm (of the hostage

crisis – blog admin’s note),

‘What if i go there and tell

the hostage-taker that he is

disrupting the lives of many

people and we would be in

the losing end?’ he said in an

exclusive interview with GMA

News’ Jun Veneracion

aired over “24 Oras.”


Quote (from Yahoo Phil)

““Syempre, sabi namin na

ganoon, ‘Mr. President, hindi

kasama na protocol yan’ ,” he

said.

quote (from Yahoo Phil) “(Of

course, we told him, ‘Mr.

President, that’s not part of

our protocols.’)


quote (from Yahoo Phil) Puno

even advised Aquino not to

worry about the incident,

which they thought would end

peacefully.


Quote “ “Nung naghiwalay

kami, sinabi namin: ‘Matulog

na kayo [Aquino] at

gigisingin namin kayo kapag

tapos na ito’,” he said.


quote (from Yahoo

Phil)”(Before we adjourned,

we told him: ‘Get some sleep

and we’ll wake you up when

this is over.)


Quote “The 11-hour hostage

drama, however, ended with

nine people killed— the

hostage-taker and eight Hong

Kong tourists. (See: Hostage

crisis ends in bloody carnage;

8 hostages dead)”

E.O. 2: President revokes all midnight appointments – NOW you’re talking

Breaking news: EO 2: President revokes all midnight appointments – Now you’re talking

This is the big legal battle – or the first big legal battle of the P-Noy Aquino administration — that’s worth staking political capital on (been waiting for it since Day One). If you’re going to expend your huge political goodwill (an unprecedented 85% trust rating) and make hard decisions, now is the time to make them and this is the ground that’s worth fighting for – undoing illegal acts of the previous administration.

[i just have two 3-hour lectures right now (sabay “BRB be right back” ‘kala mo magbibigay ng legal opinion, sa wakas, sabay talikod. sandali lang po, I’ll just finish lectures then get a copy of the E.O. )]

The next administrative step to this is (of course, you can’t just leave the E.O. there on the desk): identifying those posts that are a result of midnight appointments; listing them down. The next step after that is a memo or notification that these posts are declared vacant; the next step is to notify those occupying those posts (in diplomatese) to: please vacate their offices within __ x number of days or hours.

The next step is make the legal appointments of qualified personnel. Then, enforce those appointments. Undertake these steps smoothly and swiftly and let the midnight appointees sue – you can get the best legal minds of this country to defend you or any act you do to undo the illegal acts of the previous administration.
