Noli backs Arroyo on Proclamation 1017
VICE PRESIDENT Noli de Castro’s position on the issuance of Proclamation 1017 placing the country under a state of emergency:
I urge everyone to rally behind the Constitution. Only by adhering to it will we be assured of the continued enjoyment of our freedom and our democratic way of life.
I respect the right of the President to declare a State of Emergency in order to preserve the peace, maintain law and order, and ensure the protection of human rights and civil liberties of the people for as long as there is an imminent threat to public safety.
I reaffirm my support to the people, the Constitution and the duly constituted authorities.

i know you have your freedom of expressing your ideas

why GS are you afraid to say the truth. Most likely you are one of the attack dogs of glue and spare tire. it is our spare tire that opened his mouth and made chuchuwa to pd 1017 not me. Whose mouth stinks? me, you or our beloved spare tire.

Hahaha, our beloved spare tire a piece of advise ‘less comments less mistakes, no comment no mistake’
