After every good measure, PRRD is doing for the country, the Yellow opposition and the mobsters’ first reaction is usually talking negatively about them and finds details to politicize the circumstances. They found a perverse pleasure out in underrating the achievement of PRRD with captious logic. This is sourgraping because Benigno Pnoy Aquino clearly pales in comparison with PRRD as president in apple to apple comparison. Justice Carpio should have known better that suspects address errors, superficiality never creates. But no matter what Carpio does, he cannot take a candle to lighten the sunlight.
This time, Senior SC Justice Antonio Carpio is flying by the seat of his pants saying: “The Chico River loan agreement with China, which waives immunity to patrimonial assets should the Philippines default on its loan, could mean that we would be forced to pay China with our gas and oil from the Reed Bank.”
The above statement has gone over Carpio’s head because it is more in alignment with who he is. This is an absolute lie and it is just a product of the good Justice’s figment imagination. Too much make believe and you'll believe it yourself.
For all intents and purposes, the said waiver provision is a standard one for all kinds of foreign loans, be it with China, Japan, France, etc. Even the loans acquired during the time of the Pnoy administration, they contained this kind of waiver. Historically, when Greece suffered an economic downturn and it cannot pay their loans from various countries, it was never reported its patrimonial properties or assets had been taken or subjected as payment.
But why SC Justice Carpio is so noisy in singling out only the loan from China under PRRD but dumb with the exorbitant loans made during Pnoy administration?
To sum it all up, Justice Carpio should better explain how the two mountains in Zambales was sold to China during the Pnoy regime to be used as filling material that is now the controversial Island in the South Philippine Sea? Do they not see the irony of that? You know, when they sneer in hollow rhetoric against PRRD, it is hypocrisy. People with the likes of Justice Carpio who was down on their luck should not wag their fingers of righteousness in our faces.
Indeed, every note Carpio struck, it just looks bad. We lawyers we are trained to deal with facts. There’s no line you can cross when you speak facts. Allegations, surmises, and conjectures have no place under the sun.
