Pahayag ni Regina Reyes at abogado niyang si Larrazabal


"He (Larrazabal) said Reyes was a natural-born Filipino citizen who had never renounced or lost her Filipino citizenship.

Reyes, Larrazabal said, has filed a motion for reconsideration in the Comelec en banc on April 8."

Ano ang totoo: Lahat ng naturalized U.S. citizen ay kailangang i-renounce ang kanilang dating citizenship bago maging Amerikano/Amerikana. Ang sinabi ni Regina Ongsiako Reyes sa Comelec sa nilagdaang salaysay ay hindi daw siya naging naturalized na sinabi rin ni Larrazabal bilang abogado niya. Binaliktad naman ni Reyes ito sa pahayag niya sa media ng mabuko at siya raw ay naturalized sabay wagayway ng isang dokumento na inamin ding hindi sertipikado dahil nawala na raw ang kanyang record sa Bureau of Immigration. Kagaling mandin naman baya.

Mandanas kasal baga ngani? Ano ang sabi ni Regina O. Reyes sa Korte na taliwas sa inasabi nila sa publiko at mga pahayag hanggang ngayon?

Mababasa ang tungkol dito at kabuuhan ng desisyon ng Korte Suprema En Banc sa pagbasura sa petition ni Regina O. Reyes (GR 207264 June 25, 2013), sa Website mismo ng Korte Suprema, i-click

Dito rin  mababasa na malayo sa katotohanan ang iba pang mga pahayag. Pangunahing lumagda dito ang Chief Justice Maria Lourdes P.A. Sereno. 

Bahagi: 

"In her Answer, petitioner countered that, while she is publicly known 
to be the wife of Congressman Herminaldo I. Mandanas (Congressman 
Mandanas), there is no valid and binding marriage between them. 
According to petitioner, although her marriage with Congressman Mandanas was solemnized in a religious rite, it did not comply with certain formal requirements prescribed by the Family Code, rendering it void ab initio."

Liberal Party Regina O. Reyes baluktutan blues

2 lawmakers with pending cases assume office

 0  21 googleplus0  0 
"MANILA, Philippines - Two congresswomen with cases still pending with the Commission on Elections (Comelec) have assumed office and started doing their job as new members of Congress.
The two are Regina Reyes of the lone district of Marinduque and Angelina Tan of Quezon’s fourth district.
Reyes beat then incumbent Rep. Lord Allan Jay Velasco, son of Supreme Court (SC) Justice Presbitero Velasco. The Comelec disqualified her but the decision became final after the provincial board of canvassers proclaimed her as the winning candidate. The SC later upheld the Comelec decision.
Reyes has filed a manifestation with the SC that she has assumed office. She has been validly proclaimed, taken her oath of office, started her term, and will continue doing her job, Reyes’ husband, former Batangas Rep. Hermilando Mandanas, said yesterday."
Nasa itaas ang pahayag ng kampo ni Reyes. Malaki ang kaibahan nito sa binanggit dito na desisyon ng Korte Suprema. Basahin sa Manila Bulletin click. Sinabi na ng Korte Suprema na:
"Mas mahalaga, hindi natin maaaring balewalain ang katotohanan sa kontrobersiyang ito na bago maproklama si Reyes noong Mayo 18, 2013, ang Comelec en banc ay nakapagdesisyon pinal na sa usapin ng kanyang kakulangan ng Filipino citizenship at residency sa pamamagitan ng desisyon na may petsa 14 May 2013. Pagkaraan ng 14 May 2013, ay wala nang nakabimbin na kaso sa Comelec tugkol sa diskwalipikasyon ni Reyes...
"Hindi natin maaring balewalain ang katunayang ito kung tatanggapin natin ang argumento ni Reyes na ang Comelec ay nawalan ng jurisdiction nang siya ay maproklama, na naganap apat na araw matapos ang Comelec en banc decision.
"Ang board of canvassers na nagproklama kay Reyes sa ginawa nito ay hindi maaring magawang walang silbi ang desisyon ng Comelec en banc na kumatig sa desisyon ng Comelec first division", sabi ng SC.  
("More importantly, we cannot disregard a fact basic in this controversy that before the proclamation of Reyes on 18 May 2013, the Comelec en banc had already finally disposed of the issue of her lack of Filipino citizenship and residency via a resolution dated 14 May 2013. After 14 May 2013, there was, before the Comelec, no longer any pending case on Reyes' disqualification to run for the position of member of the House of Representatives. We will inexcusably disregard this fact if we accept the argument of Reyes that the Comelec was ousted of jurisdiction when she was proclaimed, which was four days after the Comelec en banc decision. The board of canvassers which proclaimed Reyes cannot by such act be allowed to render nugatory a decision of the Comelec en banc which affirmed a decision of the Comelec first division,: the SC said.")

Nasa radar na pala ng FBI at US Dept of Homeland Security si Gina O. Reyes ng Marinduque


2 US agencies asked to probe disqualified bet in Marinduque
This came after the United States Department of Homeland Security (USDHS) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) were asked to investigate the issuance of a US passport to Regina Ongsiako Reyes.
In his letters to the two US agencies, Pepito Vergara, of Bagumbayan in Quezon City, said that official Philippine government records showed that "Reyes possesses a US passport with No. 306278853 and that she had been repeatedly using the same to enter and exit the Philippines."
Reyes is the daughter of Marinduque Governor Carmencita Reyes and the sister of former congressman Edmundo Reyes Jr.
"Interestingly, Ms. Reyes' date of birth as stated in her US passport is indicated as 03 July 1959, while her date of birth in her Philippine passport is indicated as 03 July 1964," Vergara said in his letters dated May 3.
He pointed out that records from the civil registry of Manila and from the Philippine National Statistics Office showed that Reyes' full name is Regina Victoria Hyacinth Ongsiako Reyes, born of Filipino parents in the City of Manila on July 3, 1958.
Last March 27, the Comelec's First Division cancelled Reyes' certificate of candidacy (COC) for being an American citizen and for lack of the one-year residency for candidates to an elective office.
The Comelec decision stemmed from the petition filed by Joseph Tan, a resident of Torrijos, Marinduque, to cancel Reyes' certificate of candidacy for making several false representations in her COC.
In its 13-page decision, the Comelec First Division ruled that Reyes is an American citizen based on the certificate issued by the Bureau of Immigration detailing Reyes' use of a U.S passport since 2005.
"Unless and until she can establish that she had availed of the privileges of Republic Act 9225 by becoming a dual Filipino-American citizen, and thereafter, made a valid sworn renunciation of her American citizenship, she remains to be an American citizen and is, therefore, ineligible to run for and hold any elective public office in the Philippines," a Comelec resolution stated.

Regina O. Reyes diniskwalipika na ng Korte Suprema


Nanalong kongresista sa Marinduque, diniskwalipika ng SC

Written by  Published in Latest NewsTuesday, 25 June 2013 15:13
 Mula sa bomboradyo.com

Batay sa en banc session ng SC, ibinasura nito ang "petition for certiorari" na inihain ni Reyes kung saan hiniling nito na pigilan ang ginawang pagdiskwalipika sa kaniya ng Comelec sa pagtakbo sa nakalipas na halalan.

Sa botong 7-4-3, mayorya sa mga mahistrado sa pangunguna ni Justice Jose Perez ang nagsabing walang naging pag-abuso sa panig ng Comelec.

Apat sa kanila ang nagsabi na dapat atasan muna ang Comelec na magkomento sa petisyon bago desisyunan ang kaso, habang ang tatlong iba pang mahistrado ay nag-inhibit kabilang na sina Justices Jose Mendoza, Estela Perlas-Bernabe at Presbitero Velasco.

Si Velasco ay tatay ni incumbent Marinduque Rep. Lord Allan Velasco na nakalaban naman ni Reyes sa eleksyon.

Noong Mayo, pinal na nagdesisyon ang Comelec na idiskwalipika ang kandidatura ni Reyes dahil siya raw ay American citizen.

Hindi matuwid at harap-harapang mga paglabag sa batas

Marinduque board of canvassers defies comelec

In what is described as a brazen defiance and blatant disregard of the power and authority of the Comelec En Banc, the Provincial Board of Canvassers of Marinduque --- composed of Regional Director Emmanuel Ignacio (who replaced Provincial Election Supervisor Edwin Villa), Prosecutor Bimbo Mercado and Magdalena Lim -- proclaimed candidate Regina O. Reyes as the elected representative of the lone district of Marinduque Saturday afternoon at Boac, Marinduque.

Re-electionist Marinduque Rep. Lord Allan Jay Q. Velasco protested the proclamation and denouncing it as “highly irregular, illegal and premature” in view of the May l4, 20l3 ruling.

Velasco, son of Supreme Court Associate Justice Presbitero Velasco, stressed the PBOC should have suspended the proclamation in the meantime to await the Supreme Court’s action on the challenged resolution.

The Comelec issued a resolution  last May l4, denying with finality the motion for reconsideration of Reyes of the March 27, 2013 Resolution finding her to be a U.S. citizen and ineligible for the position of representative.

Reyes admitted she did not avail of Republic Act. No. 9225 for the reacquisition of Philippine citizenship.


Velasco sought the annulment of Reyes’ proclamation for being null and void and without any legal and constitutional basis since Reyes is not qualified for the position.

Velasco vowed to take necessary legal actions against the “highly anomalous and premature”proclamation of Reyes.

Velasco said Marinduqueños are bewildered by Reyes’ proclamation since the PBOC is under the Comelec En Banc and is required to comply with and obey all resolutions and orders of the Commission.

Kulay ng pera sa Marinduque na kulay mandin ng panglilinlang

Mar Roxas at Gina Reyes pagkatapos ng iligal at kontrobersiyal na proklamasyon. 
Panay at hindi matapos-tapos ang pagmamalaki ni Regina O. Reyes na prinoklama ng PBOC Provincial Board of Canvassers bilang nanalo sa Kongreso. Ito ay sa kabila ng pagkansela sa kandidatura niya ng Comelec En Banc at sa kabila ng mga usap-usapan na binayaran ng milyones ang PBOC na may kasama pang pananakot. Bakit po anung yabang?

Hawak daw nila si DILG Sec. Mar Roxas, dahil kaibigan daw ng pamilya lalo na ng kapatid na Edmund at kaya raw tapalan ng salapi si Mar Roxas para sa 2016, kasabay ng pagpapalabas ng larawan nina Roxas at Reyes matapos ang proklamasyon na naga-V sign. Nasa larawan ngani naman.


SALN NI CARMENCITA O. REYES
Panay pa rin ang pagyabang ng Reyes camp na sako-sakong salapi mula sa BARRICK GOLD lamang ang kapalit ng ano mang naisin nila. Kung tutuusin nga naman sa SALN ni Gov. Carmencita Reyes ang sabi niya ay P 17.7-million lamang ang kanyang salapi at pag-aari. Paanong nangyaring sa tantiya ng mga mas nakakaalam na mga pulitiko sa Marinduque at base sa pagmamayabang ng mga Reyes ay gumastos sila ng hindi bababa sa P 200-million noong nakaraang eleksyon para sa pamili ng botos? 



Saan nga naman nanggaling ang salaping talamak na pinambili? DOLLARS DAW ang padala galing Canada. Bawal ang ganyan lalo. Mismong ang SIMBAHAN sa HOMILY ng mga pari pag Linggong MISA nitong mga nakaraang linggo ay sunod-sunod ang pagtatanong. Bakit anila "mas pinili ng mga taga-Marinduque ang PITONG DAAN kaysa sa MATUWID NA DAAN"? Libo pa ngani sa iba.

Si Regina O. Reyes na isinuplong ng County of Ventura sa State of California dahilan sa pag-abandona at hindi pagsuporta sa kanyang anak sa America ay may milyon-milyon kayang baon mula sa Amerika na pambili ng boto? Sa Barrick Gold nga kaya galing yaon katulad ng pagmamayabang nila? 

Sa harap naman ng daan-daang estudyante at magulang nila na isinagawa kanina laang sa Boac Covered Court para sa Scholarship program ng Reyes daw, na sa pananaw ng mga nakasaksi ay pampolitikang rally, ay ipinagsigawan na wala si Regina (Gina) sa Marinduque dahil diumano ay kapulong nito sina PANGULONG NOYNOY AQUINO at SPEAKER BELMONTE ng KONGRESO SA MGA ORAS NA IYON! 

Pag-gamit na ng mga pangalan yaan mandin na mas malamang sa hindi ay hindi rin totoo at ni hindi alam ng kinauukulan! 

Ilang beses na bagang ipinangako ng mga Reyes noong panahon ng kampanya na 'madating si Mar Roxas', 'madating si Pnoy para itaas ang kamay ni Gina'. Wala namang dumating..

Awan laang kung mapayag na magpagamit lao't higit magpatapal ng salapi ang dalawang iginagalang at inapagpitaganang mga taong kanilang PINANGALANAN para paupuin lamang sa puwesto ang isang KUMPIRMADONG AMERICAN CITIZEN!

Hindi wari kasama yun sa mga prinsipyo ng MATUWID NA DAAN. Mapayag ka baga naman? Ay anu na sa Marinduque!

Hindi naging kandidato kailanman si Regina dahil kanselado ng Comelec ang kandidatura niya


Pabalibaliktarin mo ang tingin, sumirko ka, magpagulong-gulong ka, dayain mo ang sarili mo ay sa simbahan pa rin baya ang tuloy ng prusisyon. Kanselado ang kandidatura ni Regina kaya iligal ang kasukasukang ginawang proklamasyon sa kanya na taliwas sa daang matuwid, taliwas sa batas ng Diyos at ng Tao.
 

Marinduque lawmaker demands proclamation

MANILA, Philippines - Marinduque Rep. Lord Allan Jay Velasco said yesterday he should be the one who should be proclaimed winner in the hotly contested congressional race in his province.
In a statement, Velasco, son of Supreme Court Justice Presbitero Velasco, said his opponent, Regina Reyes, was “never a candidate” since the first division of the Commission on Elections (Comelec) had disqualified her for allegedly being an American citizen.
He claimed that the entire Comelec, to which Reyes appealed her disqualification, has upheld the decision of its first division. Thus, Velasco said he should be proclaimed winner, being the “sole qualified candidate.”
He disputed the statement of Reyes’ brother Edmund, who heads the Toll Regulatory Board, that his sister has been proclaimed with a 5,000-vote lead over Velasco. He said there has been no “official proclamation” yet.
The STAR asked Edmund Reyes for a copy of his sister’s certificate of proclamation yesterday, but as of press time, the document has not been emailed. Edmund is a former congressman.
In the Comelec website, Regina Reyes was ahead of her congressman-opponent by fewer than 3,000 votes. She received 41,072 votes against Velasco’s 38,111.

POVERTY MAP NG LALAWIGAN NG MARINDUQUE

Alam ng mga sanay sa panlilinlang kung paano paiikutin ang isipan ng mga ordinaryong mamamayan ng Marinduque. Sa mga huling sandali ng botohan ay may mga panliligaw, panlilihis, panglalansi, panloloko, pang-uuto na gagawin ang mga SUGO NG KASAMAAN!

Pakatandaan natin: Walang maaring maganap na substitution sa kaso ng isang kandidato na na-kansela ang kandidatura dahil sa mga kasinungalingan at panloloko sa Certificate of Candidacy o CoC. Magapakalat pa rin ng mga maling balita ang kampo ng nangloko sa bayan dahil sa nakasanayan na hindi maampat na gawi.

Kailangan po na matapos ang 40 taon ng paglalansi, pang-aabuso sa kaban na bayan, at pangloloko sa mga mahihirap ay MANINDIGAN NA ANG MGA BOTANTE NG MARINDUQUE! Ibaon na sa limot ang bangungot na pamana nilang mga mapagsamantala at MANINDIGAN, HARAPIN NATIN ANG BAGONG BUKAS!

GOD BLESS THE GREAT PEOPLE OF MARINDUQUE!

Final na desisyon ng Comelec kay Gina O. Reyes: KANSELADO ANG KANDIDATURA

SA MADALING SALITA: DISQUALIFIED TALAGA!


Marinduque bet can't run


THE Commission on Elections is set to promulgate until tomorrow its en banc decision that denied “for lack of merit” the motion for reconsideration of Regina Ongsiako Reyes, who had been disqualified as a congressional candidate for the lone district of Marinduque.

On March 27, the Comelec’s first division declared Reyes ineligible to run for Congress for being an American citizen and for lack of the one-year residency required for candidates to an elective office.

Reyes filed a motion for reconsideration of the first division’s ruling to the Comelec en banc.

Ruling on Reyes’ motion, the Comelec en banc said:

“The Resolution of the First Division of this Commission is a result of a tedious evaluation of the claims and defenses brought about by the two contending parties in the case at bar. After an evaluation of the arguments presented, the Commission (First Division) declared the CoC (certificate of candidacy) of the respondent (Reyes) as cancelled. This, We dare not disturb.”

“Wherefore, premises considered, the Motion for Reconsideration is hereby denied for lack of merit.  The March 27, 2013 Resolution of the Commission (First Division) is hereby affirmed,” the Comelec en banc ruled.

In its decision disqualifying Reyes as a congressional candidate, the Comelec’s first division ruled that “a Filipino citizen who becomes naturalized elsewhere effectively abandons his domicile of origin.”

Reyes is the daughter of Marinduque Gov. Carmencita Reyes and the sister of former congressman Edmundo Reyes Jr.

In the case of Reyes, the poll body said that “there is no showing whatsoever that respondent (Reyes) had already re-acquired her Filipino citizenship… so as to conclude that she has regained her domicile in the Philippines, and there being no proof that respondent had renounced her American citizenship, it follows that she has not abandoned her domicile of choice in the United States of America.”

The Comelec’s first division ruled that Reyes is an American citizen as evidenced by her use of a United States passport No. 306278853 in her travels to the US since October 14, 2005 up to June 30 2012.

It also said that Reyes was admitted to the California State Bar in 1995, maintained a US address, married an American citizen but the marriage was subsequently dissolved, and acquired properties and established businesses in the US.

Records showed that there is no US law that automatically grants US citizenship to the Filipino who is married to a US citizen. The Filipino must first be naturalized.

According to the Comelec, Reyes may re-acquire her Filipino citizenship and become eligible for public service if she would “take the oath of allegiance to the Republic of the Philippines before the consul-general of the Philippine Consulate in the US and make a personal and sworn renunciation of her American citizenship before any public officer authorized to administer an oath.”

But the Comelec said that “in the instant case, there is no showing that respondent (Reyes) complied with the requirements” for the re-acquisition of Filipino citizenship.

“This the respondent utterly failed to do, leading to the conclusion inevitable that respondent falsely misrepresented in her certificate of candidacy (COC) that she is a natural born Filipino citizen,” it said.

“Unless and until she can establish that she had availed of the privileges of RA 9225 by becoming a dual Filipino-American citizen, and thereafter, made a valid sworn renunciation of her American citizenship, she remains to be an American citizen and is, therefore, ineligible to run for and hold any elective public office in the Philippines,” the Comelec ruled.

The disqualification petition against Reyes was filed by Joseph Socorro B. Tan, a registered voter and a resident of Torrijos, Marinduque.

Aside from her American citizenship and for lack of the required residency, Tan alleged that Reyes made several misrepresentations in her CoC like her civil status and  her date of birth.

“Wherefore, in view of the foregoing, the instant petition is granted. Accordingly, the Certificate of Candidacy of respondent Regina Ongsiako Reyes is hereby cancelled,” the Comelec ruled.

May hangganan ang panlilinlang!

Balita mula sa MANILA BULLETIN, Sabado, Mayo 11, 2013 pahina 12.

Napag-alaman na pala ng FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation) at Department of Homeland Security ng Estados Unidos ang ginagawang panlilinlang ni Gina O. Reyes sa mga taga-Marinduque. Detalyado ang ginawang pamemeke ng maraming dokumentos itong si Gina O. Reyes sa report sa FBI tulad ng mga birth certificates, mga pasaporte at mga pangalan.

Hindi dapat tularan ang ehemplo ni Reyes dahil ang lahat ay may katapusan at walang sinasanto ang batas, mas higit ang batas ng Estados Unidos.

Out na si Gina!


Gina Reyes, Out!

MARINDUQUE CONGRESSIONAL BET, OUT!

ABANTE NEWS ONLINE http://www.abante.com.ph/issue/apr0713/luzon01.htm#.UXYrIaLAf3s


Dahil sa pagtataglay ng American citizenship, ipi­nag-utos ng Commission on Elections (Comelec) ang diskwalipikasyon ng isang congressional candidate sa Marinduque.

Hindi lang sa citizenship sinentensyahan Si Regina Ongsiako Reyes, kundi ang kawalan nito ng “one year residency” sa tinatakbuhang distrito.

“Thus, a Filipino citizen who becomes natura­lized elsewhere effectively abandons his domicile of origin,” ayon sa re­solusyon ng Comelec na nilagdaan nina Commissioners Lucenito Tagle at Christian Robert Lim.

“In this case, there is no showing whatsoever that respondent (Reyes) had already re-acquired her Filipino citizenship… so as to conclude that she has regained her domicile in the Philippines. There being no proof that respondent had renounced her American citizenship, it follows that she has not abandoned her domicile of choice in the United States of Ame­rica,” ayon pa sa Comelec.

Si Reyes ay kandidato ng Liberal Party at anak ni Marinduque Gov. Carmencita Reyes.

Kapag tuluyang naisapinal ang desisyon ng Comelec, lahat ng botong makukuha ni Reyes sa Mayo 13 ay ikukunsi­derang stray vote.

Ang desisyon ng Co­melec ay ibinase sa ebidensya laban kay Reyes na nagsasabing American ci­tizen ito, kabilang dito ang United States passport No. 306278853 at mga biyahe nito sa US mula Oktubre 14, 2005 hanggang Hunyo 30, 2012.

Sinabi pa ng Comelec na maaari namang muling makakuha ng Filipino citizenship si Reyes para ma­ging kwalipikado sa public service -- ito ay kung sasailalim sa “oath of allegiance” sa Republic of the Philippines si Reyes sa harap ng consul-gene­ral ng Pilipinas, kasabay ng pagwaksi sa kanyang US citizenship.

“Wherefore, in view of the foregoing, the instant petition is granted. Accordingly, the Certificate of Candidacy of respondent Regina Ongsiako Reyes is hereby cancelled,” ayon sa promulgated ruling ng Comelec.

Ayon sa Bibliya: Sinumang maakit niya ay di na makakabalik sa maayos na pamumuhay




Ayon sa Bibliya: Kawikaan 2: 14-19

14
 Mga taong ang hilig ay paggawa ng kasamaan,
ang kanilang kasiyaha'y pawang walang kabuluhan.
15 Sa ugaling taglay nila'y di sila maaasahan,
sila ay hindi tapat, hindi mapagkakatiwalaan.
16 Malalayo ka sa babaing mahalay,
at sa kanyang pang-aakit ay hindi ka maaakay.
17 Siya ay babaing hindi tapat sa asawa;
ang sumpaan sa altar ay binale-wala niya.
18 Kaya naman ang landas niya'y patungo sa kamatayan,
at ang kanyang buhay ay tungo sa kawakasan.
19 Sinumang maakit niya ay tuluyang natatangay,
at hindi na makakabalik sa maayos na pamumuhay.

disqualified na pala


Reyes DQ’d

Manila, Philippines – The Commission on Elections (Comelec) has disqualified Regina Reyes, daughter of Marinduque Governor Carmencita Reyes, from running as congresswoman in next month’s midterm elections.
Reyes is running as representative of the lone congressional district in Marinduque. In its 13-page decision, the Comelec First Division ruled that Reyes is not eligible to run for public office in the province for being an American citizen.

The ineligible candidate was declared as such also for her failure to meet the one-year residency requirement for candidates.
“Thus, a Filipino citizen who becomes naturalized elsewhere effectively abandons his domicile of origin,“ the Comelec said in a resolution signed by Commissioners Lucenito Tagle and Christian Robert Lim of the First Division. (Raymund F. Antonio)

PAGTITIKA - Ang LUPAC MARINDUQUE NG BAYANG INAPI


Ganiring ganiri ang pagbibilad sa araw na ginawa ni Regina Ongsiako Reyes sa mga nanilbihan sa kanila sa Barangay Lupac noong dekada 80 na gumulantang at nagpagising sa mga taga-Marinduque. Pinagbintangan ni Regina ang mga kasambahay na nagnakaw diumano ng mga alahas sa kanilang bahay. 

Bugbog, lublub sa dagat at tinutukan ng baril ang mga pobre at maghapon silang ibinilad sa araw habang pinapanood ng mga mang-aapi.

Isang rally ang ginanap sa harap ng kapitolyo na pinangunahan ng mga residente ng Lupac mandin at sinundan pa ito ng maingay na pagprotesta ng mga alagad ng Simbahan sa ginawang karahasan ni 'Ate Gina'. Sinundan pa rin ito ng pag-iingay ng mga opisyales ng kapitolyo bagamat may kaunti silang busal sa bibig dahil panahon pa noon ng Martial Law.

Ito ang karanasang hindi makakalimutan ng mga taga-Lupac na nakasaksi at dito rin unang nakilala ang pagkatao ni 'Ate Gina'. Inihalintulad pa ng dating Governador Aristeo Lecaroz noon ang mga pangyayari na 'mas masahol pa sa panahon ng Hapon dahil aniya ay Pilipino laban sa kapwa-Pilipino ang pang-aabusong ginawa.

Magataka pa baga kita kung bakit inasuka ng mga taga-Boac ang babaeng ito na hindi kailanman humingi ng tawad sa mga pobreng inapi? Yun po naman ang patikim pa laang sa pag-gamit ng Kapangyarihan.

Dahil hindi pa alam ng mga Kabataan natin ang kasaysayang ito, sa diwa ng KATOTOHANAN basahi ngani at ipaalam sa madla para wag pamarisan:

Privilege SPEECH NI GOV. ARISTEO LECAROZ SA SANGGUNIANG PANLALAWIGAN laban sa ginawang karahasan ni Ate Gina at mga kasamahan.

  

Patuloy naman si Regina O. Reyes sa Pag-GISA SA SARILING MANTIKA NG MGA TAGA-MARINDUQUE, ANG BAYANG INAPI! BASAHI
