  • Drug Recycling' Officers in the Recycling of for Operations (DRDO) in Cen- Leged Involvement in Illegal Seized Illegal Drugs
    MDM MONday | SEPTEMBER 30, 2019 P3 TIT FOR TAT Go wants some US senators banned from PH over de Lima Senator Christopher Lawrence Go on Saturday said he will suggest to President Rodrigo Duterte an equal retaliatory action against US senators who want to ban Philippine government officials from their country for their involvement in the detention of Senator Leila de Lima. “I will suggest to President Duterte to ban American legislators from entering our country for interfering in our internal affairs. These senators think they know better than us in governing ourselves,” Go said. Significantly, the senator made the statement in his speech at the 118th Balangiga Day Commemoration in Balangiga, Eastern Samar on Saturday, September 28. The Balangiga encounter was a successful surprise attack carried out by Filipino fighters against US troops during the Philippine-American War. It is considered by historians as one of the greatest displays of the bravery of the Filipinos fighting for their freedom. Commenting on news that a US Senate panel had approved an amendment in an appropriations bill that will ban Philippine government officials involved in the detention of de Lima, Go had choice words for the US senators: “Nakakaloko kayo.” “I condemn this act by a handful US senators… It is an affront to our sovereignty and to our ability to govern ourselves. It unduly pressures our independent courts and disrespects the entire judicial process of the Philippines by questioning its competence,” he said. Go said the US senators who proposed the initiative must themselves also be banned from the Philippines.
