The world has gone crazy.

So, I just had the worst day of my life.

At around 1:30 PM today, at Valley Golf and Country Club, Antipolo City, Mayor Nasser Pangandaman, Jr., Mayor of Masiu City, Lanao del Sur, his father, Secretary Nasser Pangandaman of the Department of Agrarian Reform, and company, beat my defenseless 56-year-old dad and my 14-year-old brother to a pulp because of some stupid misunderstanding on the golf course.

This is a golf course. I have been a golfer all my life, and I have never seen anything like this. NOTHING. This is hard to comprehend. And it happened to my own father and my own brother too. Right in front of my eyes.

My brother and I were playing golf at the South Course of Valley. We were on the 3rd hole, and we see two golf carts going past us, overtaking our flight, and setting up to tee off on the next hole. My dad goes up to them and asks them why they would do that, why they would overtake us without even asking for our permission. Golf etiquette 101. One of the guys says that they're with the flight in front of us. (So what? That doesn't give them the right to just pass us WITHOUT asking.) So, we go to the 5th hole. The flight behind us catches up with us, and asks us what caused the hold up. We said that this flight just slipped in front of our flight. So we complained to the marshall. We play the 5th hole and walk towards the next hole, where there is a teehouse, and both the flights in front of us were there, talking with the marshall. The mayor of Masiu City, Lanao del Sur talks with my dad. Things get heated up. Voices were raised. But never, in my wildest dreams, did I ever imagine that someone would pull out a punch. Apparently not. He attacks my father. His flightmates, maybe 2 or 3 of them, rush to his aid and beat up my father. My 56-year-old father. My younger brother and I could not just watch. We rushed to break the fight. My younger brother pleads to the mayor to please stop it. To not hurt my dad. To just stop. His words still ring through my head..."Sorry na po, sorry na po...tama na...tama na po..." With his hands in front of his chest in a praying position. PLEADING. The mayor socks him in the face. My brother defended himself. My dad is still on the ground getting clobbered. My brother is the same way. I try to stop the fight, but all I can do is stop one person. There were 4 or 5 of them attacking now.

Someone breaks up the fight. I thought it was all over. The mayor shouts to his caddy: "Hindi nila kami kilala! Sabihin mo nga sa kanila kung sino ako!" And believe me, I had no idea who this person was. But now I know. He's the person who, with 4 other men, beat up my 56-year-old father and my 14-year-old brother. He's the person who sacks a pleading 14-year-old kid in the face. He's a person who, I am sure, is gonna rot in hell.

I lash out, but my dad held me back. I was screaming my lungs out, shouting to this mayor, telling him about what he had done. I said: "Nakakahiya kayo. Singkwenta'y sais anyos ang tatay ko. And kapatid ko kakatorse anyos. Anong ilalaban nila sayo?"

The mayor looks at my brother, point to his face, and says, "Tatandaan kita!" And he tells me that my brother has a bad attitude and that I need to watch him. WHAT THE HELL?! So, my brother's bad for defending his father?!

We leave. We walk to the clubhouse to file a complaint. My brother asks for a doctor. My dad could barely walk. Their group comes to the clubhouse, sees my brother. Once again my brother pleads, says sorry, and is crying. He was CRYING, for crissakes. But no. The relentless mayor still punches him in the face, and then sees my dad and goes after my dad again. Him and his friend pull my dad to the ground, pulls at his feet, and steps on him like he's dirt. I run to him and try to hold him back, holding him back by his shirt, while this other guy and this girl tries to stop me. She tells me to just stop it. I scream in her face "they're beating my father up and you want me to stop?!" I pull at his shirt--I don't let go. All I can see was my dad being trampled on. I didn't even see my brother getting beat up.

People pull them away. I get my dad, and I saw my brother. His right ear was bleeding. I freaked out. I told the receptionists to bring my brother to the clinic. I pull my dad away. People were separating us.

My mom and my older brother come. I tell her Bino's right ear is bleeding. They both look like they could kill. My dad holds my brother off, I hold off my mom. When I finally got my mom under control, my older brother gets away and I hold him off. Two of the mayor's bodyguards pull out guns. I embraced my brother from the back, just holding him back, crying. The receptionists came to us, crying, hugging me, my dad, and my mom, whispering to us to just leave. "Maam, umalis na po kayo, may mga baril sila...Maam...umalis na po kayo please..."

I am pretty sure the Secretary of DAR did not take part in the fight, but he just watched all this happen. He watched two of his sons, as we figured out, the other guy was his son, too, beat up my father and my 14-year-old brother. He didn't do anything to stop it. And this person is what now? A cabinet member. A politician.

Sounds like something out of a movie, doesn't it? But this is what happened. TODAY. The day after Christmas. To my family. And all I ask for is JUSTICE. The people at Valley Golf did not seem to want to help us. None of the security guards even tried to stop the fight. Right in the clubhouse. I came back after the fight was over and talked to the receptionists. They say they did not see anything. The general manager of Valley Golf would not give us the names of the men who made my brother's ear bleed. It took him an hour. Maybe even more than that. He seemed to not want to help us. Because, we were against the SECRETARY OF THE DEPARTMENT OF AGRARIAN REFORM and the MAYOR OF MASIU CITY, LANAO DEL SUR. They were all scared.

The world has gone crazy. Two politicians beat up a defenseless 56-year-old father and his 14-year-old son. At a golf course. I swear to God, I thought golfers were decent people. You would think politicians were decent people. I guess not. I guess they gang up on 56-year-old men and beat up pleading 14-year-old kids.

Please pray for my dad, my brother and for my whole family. Please pray that we get JUSTICE. Oh God, please, give these people what they deserve.

one of my online buddies posted your blog link to his site and I just checked the hell out of it.

DAMN! politicians nowadays are becoming waywardly appalling. see? they think they're the most powerful and the most famous beings in the world. they think the ordinary people, like us are they're slaves or whatnot. WHO CARES RIGHT? THIS IS NOT A COMMUNIST COUNTRY FOR CHRIST SAKE.

and oh, the staffs were scared, and you know the reason behind it. I really, really admire your courage dear.

And oh, just be careful, they might come back for revenge or not T___T. just BE careful dear.

My blockmate PC posted a link to your story. I read your story and here's what I think...

Eh Mayor naman pala siya eh, bat ganun siya makitungo? Grabe, parang bata. Kaya walang nangyayari sa Pilipinas, mga pulitiko natin grade-schoolers padin kung mag-isip. "Away mo ko, suntok kita." Gawd, talo pa mga taong gubat. Akala nila kung sino silang diyos.

Ang problema pa, no one dares to stand up against them all because they have friggin' guns :|

I pray for you and your family that justice will reign.

Down with self-serving politicians!!!!

Terry Ridon said...

hello.

this is terry, former UP Student Regent and student of the UP College of Law.

is there a way we can talk? we can set-up a press conference and media barrage on the matter ASAP.

email me, teridon18@gmail.com.

things like this we can never allow to pass, arrogant bureaucrats terrorizing the citizens they're supposed to serve.

the question, nonetheless, is - since when did these lunatics ever really care about the people?

no wonder the CARP never ever got fully implemented under Pangandaman's term.

Eugene said...

There's now a news article: DAR chief, mayor son accused of mauling golfers in Antipolo.

Help spread the word!

got this from the same blockmate... and i'm speechless. where is the justice in the world!??!

Bambee, we'll make sure they won't get away from this.

Prayers to you and to your family. I know you're having a hard time responding. Just thank everyone na lang who will strive hard to make these scallawags pay for what they effing did to you, to your family, and to our taxes.

Hello. My friend linked me to your blog, and I just wanted to say that we are with you on this. Politicians like that should not be allowed to run our country.

Oh and also... be very very careful. You're dealing with politicians here, they would resort to horrible things to get their problems out of the way.

Read your blog, and the article. I'm sorry to hear what happened to you and your family, but I'm all with you in your fight for justice. What happened IS appalling and inexcusable. Don't let them get away with it!

oh my...this is horrible! we'll keep on praying that you're family will get justice for what was done to your dad and brother..grabe power trippers x(

i think you should also file a case against Valley Golf they have no right to operate if they cant protect their members.

I will put a link from my blog to yours. I will help as much as I can to spread the word on what happened to your family.

Unknown said...

i am appalled at the wanton stupidtiy, pride, mis-use of power, disrespect that this "Mayor" has..

if i could post freely, this comment would not be free from vulgar crude obscenities thrown at that guy...

i hate how power gets into the head of people and then use that to make themselves "lord it up" on other people..

as my friend told me, "pare-pareho tayong lahat...tumatae ka, tumatae ako..bakit, ginto at mas mabango ba ang tae mo kesa sakin?"..

tis a sad thing to happen because of the xmas season and another blow to the phil. authority...hence, most people do not trust the police and the government anymore because of crap like this...

if that "Mayor" goes free from what he did...there is no more justice here..there is no more hope here...there is no more freedom and democracy here...

only, ill-use of power, graft and corruption..

i apologize for the long comment but i cannot help but voice out my sentiments..i do hope your dad and bro will be ok..and that your family will be safe..

Unknown said...

A friend of mine posted your entry in her plurk. Just reading a few lines made me feel terrible. I pray for your father and brother. I hope you get justice. Stay safe.

kurohiko said...

Good... God...

Is your brother and father all right?

I mean, bleeding in the ear? Wouldn't that have brain damage or something? *prays and hopes not*

jars said...

just read your story... did your family file a complaint?
Politicians like them should be taught a lesson... burned to the bones!!

notsovictor said...

ang langaw nga naman pag nakatungtong sa kalabaw.

i got ur link from my former teacher. all my prayers are with you and your family.

the problem with politicians is they forget they're public servants, not kings on thrones.

from the Urban Devil said...

All of that because of a golf game?

Crazy, indeed.

I hope for a speedy justice para sa case ninyo.

i got here from a friend. i am deeply enraged by this. gah. i'd rather save the profanities for my blog though. all i can say is that people are praying for you and i really do hope that your brother and father get well soon.

Hey Bambee. I read your blog post and what the hell, you guys don't deserve this. I am going to pray for you and your family.

KOMIXPAGE said...

If your story is true, your family must file a complaint against those demon politicians and govt. official.
Ask the assistance of the Tulfo brothers na astig sa ganyang bagay or any other popular personality in media para ma-exposed ang ganyang kayabangan at brutal na ginawa sa iyong pamilya. Ang mayayabang na tao ay dapat ding tapatan ng astig at tipong mayayabang ding media personality. Tiyak na tutupi ang mga iyan. Huwak kayong manahimik sa sulok dahil lalo pang aabuso ang mga taong tulad nila. Anyway, I'll pick your story para mabanatan ko kahit sa blog ko ang mga bugok na iyon. Just pray and hope na makamit ninyo ang justice.

justice for 'em.

Anonymous said...

It was a good move to post the incident on the web and to let people know that politicians aren't as saintly as they look and seem.
I think it is a great move and a good start to change the system that has been set up so long ago. The power of a politician is bestowed by the people and it is up to us to make sure that they don't take advantage of that power.
I really hope and pray that you gain the justice you are seeking for. Please also be careful, as we know how dangerous these people can be.
My prayers are with you.

* By the way, please keep us updated on the progress of your move. Thanks!

On a side note, my mother's side of the family lives in Valley Golf (this is Cainta, right?)

On a serious note, I decided to finish this entry and am APALLED. I will be spreading the word.

Is there anything else that I can assist you with?

Kikz said...

I've read your story in a couple of my friend's blogs. And I just want to say keep the fighting and don't be afraid.

These animals (because no decent human being will do such a thing) should remember that their power is given to them by the people not to misuse and abuse. And as such, it could be easily taken away from them.

My friends and I support and pray for your family.

fight for it....
file a complaint....
di dapat sila ganyan...

This is a very horrible thing.

I shared the link to your blog. People must know what kind of government, and officials do exist out there. Even if it isn't the entire government, people like this do exist, and it's sad.

The people who should be protecting us, should not over-abuse their powers.

I'll be praying for your family.

This is so unbelievable, who do they think they are? This is the kind of thing that doesn't just make you lose hope for your country's politics, but for your country itself.

I hope your family gets justice and that the men who did this to your family get their comeuppance.

those politicians think that just because they have power and money, they have the right to trample over other people's rights. the world has indeed gone crazy.

you're a very brave person. let's all hope this injustice does no go unnoticed. :D

this is bullshit!!!

kenshinflyer said...

When I read your blog, it surely pissed me off. Here goes another mayabang na pulitiko who forgot his role or serving us, and maybe he forgot where his ridiculously fat paycheck, something he's splurging on that golf course, is coming from.

By doing that act, he practically beat up his paymaster. That mayor is an INGRATE.

Be brave and be steady. Who knows, you might teach these hooligans their role, that we pay their salaries through our taxes to SERVE US, not BEAT US UP.

kenshinflyer said...

Pahabol: And to that takas sa mental, este, mayor pala, here's something to ponder upon:

"O miserable shadow clad in darkness! Hurting and disdaining people, a karmic soul drowning in sin...Would you try dying for once?"

Unknown said...

It wouldn't be too accurate to say that it's a good thing nobody got _really_ hurt, but yeah it's a good thing nobody got seriously hurt.

If it was me in that situation somebody would have died right there and then...

This world is seriously f*cked up...

My prayers are for you and your family. May He grant you clarity of mind to decide on things that should be done so that justice may be served, and the bravery to fight all the way to the end.

Please hold on and fight until the end. I honestly hope that that Mayor will learn his lesson.

Karen said...

I reposted your entry in my blog. I'm really mad at what you and your family had to endure because of those bastards' bloated egos. I wouldn't be surprised if they cheated their way to be in their current government positions. I hope you get justice for what happened and that the bastards get the treatment they deserve - time in jail and getting axed from their positions.

mooky said...

Call me skeptic, but I'm just curious, 2 politicians beat up a 56 year old and a 14 year old, and left you alone. That does not sound right at all.

Don't get me wrong I'm not trying to side with the politicians, but it is strange coming from a complete stranger's point of view.

Patronage politics. If you have money, you have power, If you have power, you can get away with things. Things such as this. It irks me to admit, but this country I love so much is sinking more and more each day. Politicians should be respected, not feared. People like them should not be in office. People like them, who let the power go into their heads, should be rotting in jail. I've had my share of misfortunes with people like these, and it does take courage to stand up to them. I'm sure your pleas have been heard where it really counts. God Speed. Stay Strong. :)

humbly,

Kristina said...

You may be wondering how a stranger stumbled upon your blog and the answer is that my cousin, Jammy C., posted this link in our family Yahoo!groups. (Sorry, if this freaks you out.)

I am TOTALLY ENRAGED for your family. I am FURIOUS. I want to throw something. I hate injustice. I abhor it. I cannot even comprehend the fact that this happened, that this HAPPENS. Almost too hard to believe this is in fact our reality. This has absolutely lowered my confidence in humanity in general. How can someone so viciously act for oneself only? How can someone be capable of doing such an act of selfishness? How can a (let's assume) Catholic Filipino LEADER( SUPPOSEDLY) act like this? What has the world come down to?

Though, I am glad that you and your family are alive. No one should experience this degree of cruelty. (ESPECIALLY on freakin Christmas.)No one should even be capable of carrying out an action of this degree of cruelty. I am hoping for the best for your family. I hope you will all heal.
I will pray for you and your family. For every Filipino out there who has experienced,are experiencing, (God Forbid) will be experiencing this malevolence from our very own government. And, as hard as it is for me to say it, we must pray especially for these kind of people. 'Love your enemies.' As hard as it is to accept, we would be nothing better than those we hate, if we aren't even capable of this. Though, don't worry, you don't need to accept this yet. It might take a while, but eventually, we must forgive.

And for exactly this reason, we must hope. For the people who have been victimized, like your family, we must hope. For these dogs who don't even deserve the title of being called 'human' much less that of a 'mayor', we must hope. For our country, we must pray.

I will pray for you.

First of, I am so sorry to hear what happened to you and your family. No one deserves this. Thank God nobody was shot.

This story is just so appalling and makes me sick. This is just too much. A Mayor who only got into power because of his dad and a DAR undersecretary who could just watch.

As for the GMA news article, it has been replaced with this one http://www.gmanews.tv/story/141418/DAR-chiefs-son-5-bodyguards-face-charges-for-alleged-mauling-of-2-golfers

Again, I am so sorry to hear what happened to you and I hope justice will be served on this one. Actually, I should add that justice be served to the deserving parties as apparently, the Mayor has filed a complaint against you.

God, reading the actual news articles makes me even more enraged.

My prayers are for you.

Hi. A few among my contacts in multiply.com had posted this link, and if it's all right for you I'd like to post this in my blog.

Let's make them realize that their kinds are not immortal... Thank goodness for a brave soul like yours. Mabuhay!!

Wolf Akela said...

It's events like these that make me believe that there are really devils who walk on earth, masquerading as human beings.

This just sickens me, specially when they even FOLLOWED the victims to the clinic to beat them up some more.

I feel really sorry, and even though with our system there's a good chance they'll get away with it, they must rot in hell.

Brillig said...

I commend you and your family for your bravery. The more widespread attention your story gets, the better the chances of achieving justice.

I just Dugged the ABS-CBN report on the mauling. Feel free to Digg it as well (click here), maybe the more times it is dugg, the more attention the story will get in the international media.

That's just bullshit. I agree, the world has gone crazy. He's so fucked up, I never thought people that evil could really exist.

I hope you're doing well despite this ordeal. Always remember there are tons of people with you on this, prayers are wonderful things (I will definitely include you and your family in my prayers..will also pray for mayor's comeuppance)

I reposted your blog to my facebook and multiply site in hopes of creating awareness. I sure hope that you'll keep us updated.

Good luck and GOD BLESS... he's such a shame and a sham..forgetting he's in a position to serve and help, not to abuse and beat people up

Onin said...

hi, i re-posted your blog in my multiply site. i hope you don't mind.

Lee said...

Hi. If it's okay I posted the link and reposted your blog into mine and sent an email na din to all my groups. :) I'll pray for you and your dad and bro.

I know we don't know each other at all (I got your link from an online friend), but OHMYGOD. This is really cruel. And to think they were politicians. They're supposed to maintain peace and order in our country.

I hope that more people will know about this so that they could help you and your family. God bless :)

bogaloids said...

I can help you sue the Mayor if you want. My dad's part of the NBI and I believe that the Mayor was wrong in doing that to your father and brother.

uh, here you can contact me if you wanna sue him or something :p

Kakaunti na lang talaga mga naiiwang matino sa pulitika eh. They think that just because they hold government positions, they can go around flaunting their guns and fighting anyone standing in their way. PI nila.

Unknown said...

I am deeply, utterly ashamed of these men. And to think they are in position. Ugh.

Will post this. The people needs to know this.

Your family will be in our prayers. Please take care. :)

Yapi said...

As I was re-reading this post of yours, the report about it came up on ABS CBN news. I'm glad that the media caught wind of it pretty quickly.

I pray that your family gets justice and that these horrible people get their just desserts.

He doesn't deserve to be a servant of our nation. Grabe... He's inexcusable. May linya pa siyang "Di nila ako kilala" What's up with that?
NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW ASSH*LE.
Actually, it wasn't the proper thing to say cuz it was a very small matter regarding golf and he had to make such a big deal. Tsk. This is too much.

I will pray for you and your family and hope for justice in our system!

Will definitely share it with my buddies too. We'll not stand ignorance...

Hi!!!

Very mind blowing event!!! I am sorry to hear what happened...

What you can do is to put a blotter on the barangay that scope the golf club area if it's possible...
then get a medico legal
you'll be needing this for a record.
Then try to talk with lawyers na rin on what grounds of violations that they violated... Yun report and medico legal of your father & brother, written statements will be very important... I'll post this link to my blog sites to, to spread the word.

take care!!! =))

Lee said...

hopefully our voices in multiply and plurk get to be heard. a couple of news reports are not enough for the damage done to you and your family.

Gem said...

This is so sad. Just because those men had the power, they think they can just do what they wanted to do above the law.

Anyway this one is all over social networks and the news. I hope those politicians get what they deserve.

Outrageous. Simply outrageous.

If this had happened to my father and brother (who both happen to be golfers), I don't know what I would have done. I think I might have killed someone (or gotten killed) right then and there. I'm very sorry your family underwent such a horrible ordeal at the hands of such lowlifes. I really hope you get the justice you deserve.

And I hope those scumbags get what's coming to them.

Good day...

I chanced upon this blog entry through a friend who posted a link to it.
I am shocked and appalled with what has happened to your family.
A terrible injustice has been done to your father and brother and I sincerely pray that the persons involved in this get what they deserve.

I also forwarded your blog entry to Sen. Pangilinan. I hope swift action is taken to bring all these people to justice.

God be with you and your family always.

If the DAR secretary family can do that in Antipolo city to a family that affords to play golf.
Can you imagine what are they doing in their own territory to those they dislike?We all know most of their constituents in Mindanao are not that rich people & are incapable of fighting for their rights.

let us spread the story & use the power of the web to fight this Obsolete Warlords

reyna elena said...

They have all the Lanao to play golf, why are these hoodlums allowed in Manila? And why are the Valley Golf people silent? Cowards? Hawak sa bayag?

It's unbelievable that no arrest has been made.

I'm just totally totally angered by how demonyo those politicos are and to think his father is the Agrarian Reform?

I wonder now who's got a lot of titles of lands?

I do hope justice will be serve and I admire you for your courage! More power to your family!

This is just apalling!

Guys, just a heads up... somebody submitted the story to DIGG...

You can digg this story here!

If it gets enough diggs in the right span of time and makes it to the front page, the whole world will know of this unbelievable case of douchebaggery.

Note: there seems to be another digg submission, but this link looks to have a better chance of making it to the front page. Sorry for the inconvenience (and the comment repost), if any.

Digg it, and pass it on.

I will also try to relay this to my friends, this is unacceptable. As Legislators and Politicians they should know that nobody is above the law.

Ingrates! Polititians are unethical by nature, but this is way over unethical to downright disgusting!

I'll pray for you.

Hi, got wind of your blog entry thru a friend at the Mindanao Bloggers site. I am a muslim blogger from Mindanao and I too was appalled at what the politicians from Lanao did. Just imagine what they do when they are here. Di kasi dinidisiplina ng mga cohorts nilang corrupt din kaya ayan umaabuso. I hope your dad and brother is okay..

I will repost your entry in more of my Mindanao yahoo groups. You will find justice my dear.. karma comes like a swift thief in the night.

Hi, I saw this post from my friends and I support your stand to make sure justice is served here.

Nakakasulasok at nakakapanlumo na mga tila nagiging sangganong lulong sa kapangyarihan ang mga dapat maglingkod sa bayan. Bilang isang Pub Ad major, itinatakwil ko ang mga ganitong klaseng mga "lingkod". Asahan mo na maikakalat ito at babantayan namin ang kasong ito.

xocrissaxo said...

Hey, an online buuddy posted it and I got so affected that I just have to re post it if it's ok. What they did is very immature and evil. Seriously, you can now overtake just because you're a politician? WTH. They soooo do not deserve their posts. I'll be praying for you and your family.

-Lance said...

My friend reposted this in her Multiply site. I suggest you send this to Inquirer, or any other broadsheet. They'd love to publish this.

Leah Navarro said...

Dear Bambina,

Being a golfer myself, I am appalled and disgusted at what happened to your father and brother, but as a Filipino, am not surprised. Violent acts like this are perpetrated with impunity by people in power on a daily basis, not just on the golf course, but everywhere in our country. They commit these acts because they believe no one will stand up to them. Things have gotten worse since those that wield the most power act with arrogance and impunity. As if they have no one to answer to, since so many have not lifted a finger to oppose their heinous acts.

I hope your dad and brother are healing well. I also hope that you and your family have gone to a police station to file charges against these jerks, Valley Golf, and the security agency. Nothing will happen if you do not seek justice. Don't be lulled into thinking that just because these people are linked to the government, you have no hope. There is always hope.

Like the others that have responded here, I've forwarded your post to all my media contacts. Stay strong, do not be cowed.

Hazel Manzano said...

Ria Verdolaga said...

God, they're appalling. And they're government officials. Doubly appalling.

I know that justice seems to be elusive in this country especially when going against such influential people but I hope that you never back out of this fight until justice is served.

I will re-post this so that even more people will be informed.

Jobert Bolanos said...

The motorcycling community is backing you up 101%.

Prayers for you and your family. May justice be served swift and absolute.

ian laput said...

Wow...how can certain individuals be cruel and be absolutely overwhelmed by their sense of power and authority. I just hope that the persons concerned, the mayor will be apprehended if not punished. I'll be reposting your blog to my other sites to spread a good sense of justice in their minds and hearts. I hope it reached the pangandamans in Lanao.

Stink Ball said...

I'm sharing this post on facebook and on my blog. Those guys are crazy. If only people could stop being such an assholes.

Hoping that you and your family is safe.

Damn those F*cking politicians, I'm sorry if I used inappropriate words but it is so true my great-grandfather is the great Eulogio Rodriguez, do I know what good politicians are !

God is already with you all the way to justice but remember revenge is not the answer if your thinking of it. I will help pray with you and I will tell some of my nun friends to pray for you too ^^.

P.S. Politicians suck all they care about is themselves and how they look and of course money. they should remember that this is a democratic country and we're in charge of who will be put in the position...this is also a reminder of not voting wisely.

Hello there. I read your story on some of my friends' blogs. This is one reason why our government system is quickly going downhill. We'll always be praying for your family's safety. It's a small step but I'll send your entry's link to a bunch of other people so they'll know the abuse this so-called mayor has given your family.

aruki said...

I've been directed to your blog by some friend's link. I feel sorry for what happened, and the least I can do is to pray for your and your family.

This just proves how rotten the world really is; how cowardice brings out the most evil side of humans; how greed to obtain power only to trample upon the weak comes out in situations like this. To put it bluntly, it's abuse of power. These people do not have the right to have a position in the government--these people don't deserve to be called "servant leaders".

It never hurts to be careful.. I pray for your family's safety and for you to acquire the justice you so deserve.

faye_myboo said...

this is truly disgusting, it shows how unscrupulous people can be when they are in power, extreme human rights violations, shows how commoner are very scared of so-called powerful personalities, but God still the most powerful one, prayers while doing the right thing to do is indeed what we should do in times like this. Seek for due process, file a complaint, make sure evidences like the medico-legal and anything necessary to feed a strong case. are prepared..PUBLICITY, EVERYBODY SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THIS,i pray for JUSTICE to your family...,
just be strong and brave, i know you already are...,hang on dear.

Im so sorry to hear about the incident. Send your story to the media. If there's anyone these politicians are afraid of, it's the press.

I can relate to your story how people would use their influence to bring harm and terrorize people.

Twinkle said...

This is so disheartening...

How could the management of the golf course allow bodyguards to be at the greens and the clubhouse? The member should be expelled for the reason of allowing his security to be armed in the vicinity, which is forbidden at a golf course. There should be proper action that would take place over the management of the course. Just as Wack-Wack Golf and Country did to Raul Gonzales for bringing an armed weapon in the premises.

This country is in a rut because of people and politicians who use their power to bully others. Actually, we were the ones who put them in power, so they should be the ones who serve us. It is such an irony here in the Philippines because in little things like in a traffic jam, the Police, who should protect and serve civilians, prioritize those politicians.

I hope you continue to fight these kinds of people and not get intimidated over their power.

cruz said...

I'm from L.A. and this reached me. Jeezus. That's why we shouldn't allow kids to run in politics.

People tend to act that way when they think they are above the law.
They're not.

Such a corrupt, uneducated way of reacting to situations. That's why they hire people to do the talking for them. They're too dumb to survive an argument.

Hope everything works out for you and your family. God bless.

mga pulitiko, may sariling mundo, lalo na mga matataas sa posisyon. kala nila diyos na sila. untouchables. and their social circles, their fave hang-outs, the staff who work there, and probably management too, perpetuate this reality. staff and mngt would rather protect these high-ranking politicians, in this case, at great cost to civilians. and poor staff, their hands are tied really. these politicos probably bring in a lot of money, sa hang-out nilang pinagpalang tambayan.

FIGHT. write to columists, write to VAW, write to NGOs, write to the Commission on Human Rights. create noise. go to Korina, go to DZMM.

Si DAR Usec at Mayor ng kung anong probinsya, at the end of the day, tao lang din yan. Lalaki. Yun nga lang, di na matinong mag isip. Take away their money, their bodyguards, their 'powerful connections,' and they're just ordinary mortals. Yun nga lang, baka naka droga na, di na matino mag isip.

Joseph Cesar Bañes said...

this is too lame...

i cant believe he became a Mayor which is a public servant! A PUBLIC SERVANT!
not a PUBLIC TYRANT!

and this happened in Antipolo not in his town, so i wonder how he treat his constituents? maybe he kick and punch anyone there at will!

hey! Nasser Pangandaman, Jr. is that how you show your power? by beating a 56 years old man and a teenager? i tell you what! come here in Iloilo and bring all of your goons with you. lets see how powerful you are infront of the Ilonggos or maybe ill just send the Ilaga group there in Masiu City, Lanao del Sur to hunt you DOWN! (oh i dont know if he can read english)

and to you bambee, i dont usually pray, but ill try this time to give you and your family my support with the help of our Almighty God. i know He will give justice to your sufferings...

It's also very infuriating for me because I live really really near from where the incident happened.

I pray for you and your family.

Justice will be served. :)

Marlon said...

I do hope you put that sh*thead in jail, although it seems impossible as of the moment, what with all the kumpare system that characterizes Philippine politics. It's disgusting that politicians are like this, especially because we spend our money to pay them. Bring this to mainstream media. Public info is necessary.

daymwit said...

You did a good job by letting everybody know how abusive the politicians are. But let us not generalize all the politicians.. Moreover, I suggest that your family should continue this fight to the very end and bear in your mind and in your heart that the rest of the country is behind you. No powerful politicians can ever match up to the fury of the Filipinos.

You know what, I can talk to some people to do some action against those politicians but I'd rather let them live and feel sorry for what they have done..behind bars!

Edwin Ebreo said...

This enrages me. I hope those psychos don't get away with it. They don't deserve the power they are holding. I can just imagine what the people of Masiu, Lanao del Sur have to put up with everyday with a barbarian for a mayor. We should not stop talking about this until justice is served.

Dennis Garcia said...

"Hindi nila kami kilala..."

The usual line from people who get a taste of a little power... and become bullies overnight.

Collectively, we should comfront these goons and shout...

I have been disappointed a number of times with our politicians. I cannot believe where will our country go with these leaders?

My prayers that your family will get over the trauma of the incident.

There's probably a lot of media men and politicians who want to "help" publicize this. Please be careful with who you talk to regarding this matter. There will surely be those who will attempt to exploit your predicament for their own political or personal agenda.

My prayers go to you and your family.

This is very sad and infuriating.

Pero i'm concerned... not all people from the south are like that. I came from Riyadh and a lot of us grew up with friends who came from Lanao... and they are decent people with a good heart.

It's sad that they will most probably be judged because of the actions of others. Like this Mayor guy... He gives "public service" a a bad rep...

I pray for your father and brother's recovery.. and for your family's safety... and may you find justice no matter how elusive it is in our country.

Just keep the faith though it's really hard being in such situation...

I'll be praying for you and your family's peace of mind...

Their souls were already ashed in hell even they're still alive... my God, why such things happen? Oh God, I can't seem to find the worst word to say about them because of so much anger... Whew!

There's always a light in the end of a dark path... you can make it...

try seeking help to the Tulfo brothers... They could really help... swear...
