During the Senate Hearing on the abduction and slain of South Korean busninessman Jee Ick Joo, Senator Bam Aquino asked the suspect SPO3 Ricky Sta. Isabel on why they are brave in doing that kind of crime.



Atty. Trixie Cruz-Angeles, in her Facebook post, she lambasted Senator Aquino on the way he question the suspect.

Read her post below:

Another example of how NOT to conduct a direct examination.

A senate investigation is conducted for the purpose of determining if legislation is needed to address certain issues and what sort of legislation is needed. The examination of resource persons, therefore in such an investigation is to elicit pertinent information.

What good does a question like, "Bakit ang tapang mo?" do for the purpose?

Personally, I think Senator Aquino is simply posturing for the cameras here. Pa-cute. Which really just wastes our time.

But then, in general the manner in which the Liberal Party had conducted their campaign and the way they promote Leni Robredo, it seems to me, they are stuck in this rut of pagpapa-cute.


Posturing for the camera is ok, if followed by some sort of public good. Eliciting information. Getting people to move. Compelling action to be taken. But for politicians like Bam, it seems that the pa-cute is the end in itself.
