DE LIMA MAKING A FOOL OF HERSELF!

A highly-successful but low-profile lawyer/businessman from Makati sent me his observations on Leila de Lima:

She is running out of issues and arguments. She no longer argues her case. What a pity that she now looks like a fool who comments on almost each and every move the Duterte government makes just to have something bad to say against the President. An undeniably desperate move just to be always in national media like her obvious ally Inquirer.

Like her latest comment on the Philippines ‘No’ vote on the United Nations deliberations on the Myanmar refugee issue. De Lima said the vote was out of the Duterte Administration’s fear of further exposing human rights’ violations.  

Who is she to talk about human rights violations? She is not from Myanmar. She is not a human rights official of the current government. She has been in jail since February. So it’s disgusting and ridiculous, if not insanity, for her to have the nerve to still prejudge the government’s ‘No’ when she does not have first-hand knowledge of the issue since she’s behind bars.  Most of all, she shamelessly committed human rights violations when she blocked former President Gloria Arroyo from leaving for abroad for medical treatment despite an approval by the Supreme Court.

De Lima should be reminded that she hardly enjoys any credibility now. The only way for her to regain some is to confront the drug cases against her and prove her claim of innocence. Mere media presence is not, and will never be, the solution. 30
