Saksi sa Dobol B. DZBB) Commentaries by J. Zobel
- Mismo ang Presidente na ang nag-sabi na mayroong sulat ang sultanate of Sulu sa Presidente pero sa di malamang dahilan ay nawala ito. Ano ang gagawin natin Mr. Pres? Hindi ba natin papanagutin itong taong nakawala ng sulat? Hindo po pipitsuging isyu ito dahil national concern po iyong laman ng isyu na hindi ninyo nabasa ang sulat. Pambihirang buhay ito, ganoon na lang ba iyon?

Top Sotry ANC: Interview with Balsa Mindanao Exec. Dir. Francisco Morales and DSWD Sec. Dinky Soliman by Bernadette Sembrano Morales:
- Hindi po ransack ang nangyari sa DSWD office, binawi o kinonfiscate lamang ng mga "Pablo" survivors yung kung anong nararapat sa kanila base sa pangako ni Sec. Soliman. Maraming nasayang na relief goods na hindi nakaabot sa amin dahil sa corruption issue sa DSWD. May problema sa job ng DSWD. Sa tingin namin hindi as  social workers ang treatment nila sa survivors.
- pinapahirapan nila. Hungry and angry yung mga tao kaya ginawa nila yun. See you in court DSWD.

INQUIRER: DICK GORDON
Gordon also cited Aquino's alleged weakness in foreign policy, especially his handling of the territorial dispute with China and the arrest of pyramid scam culprit Manuel Amalilio in Malaysia. "We are very much in trouble in handling foreign policy. The buck stops with him and that's why you need senior statesmen as President because of the experience and depth needed."

He complained about "double dealing" under the Aquino administration, where a magistrate would be pilloried for plagiarism while celebrating the two similar acts committed by its two tourism secretaries - spending P6 million for the "Pilipinas Kay Ganda" promotion copied from Poland's  campaign and another P10 million for the "It's more Fun In The Philippines" slogan stolen from Switzerland's.

INQUIRER: DICK GORDON: Love or hate him but Gordon tell is like it is "Do you think Noynoy would win  if his mother had not died? I am not  going to blame God for that... But just because he is the President doesn't give him infallibility like the Pope," Gordon said. "Can I be like Bam (Aquino)? Where I'd just say 'Tito Ninoy, Tita Cory and Kuya Noynoy' and I get elected." Describing as one of the administration's "biggest failing" was the way Chief Justice Renato Corona was ousted. They took out Corona using a little lady giving out evidence and leaving it in their garages. What if they did the same thing to you?"

Another group, 'Balsa Mindanao' says, the typhoon survivors did not ransack the DSWD office. "Hindi ransack -- it's confiscation, binawi lang po ng mga tao what rightfully belongs to them and should have been given to them efficiently  and effectively. Failure of that system ang isa sa reason bakit naganun yung mga survivors," said Francis Morales, the Executive Director of Balsa Mindanao.

Anthony Taberna and Gerry Baja on DZMM:

Taberna: Muntik na akong mahulog sa kinauupuan ko kanina nang sabihin ng Pangulong Aquino na 'yung sulat daw na ipinadala sa Malacanang noong bago palang siya umupo bilang Presidente ng bansa sa pamamagitan ng OPAPP dahil daw sa bureaucratic needs. Nawala raw ang liham! Ganoon ba magtrato ng liham ang Malacanang? Paano kung kamatayan ang nakataya sa liham na ito na tanging aksyon lang ni PNoy ang sasalba sa buhay rito? Tapos sasabihing bureaucratic needs! Anak ng baka talaga! Nanggaling 'yon sa Pangulo ng Pilipinas kanina. Nanggaling sa kanya mismo! Dapat ang sinasabi ng Pangulo pagkatapos niyang nalaman na nawala ang liham, sisibakin ko kung sinong may kasalanan noon! Paano kayo pagkakatiwalaan Mr. President, sulat lang nawala na? Wala man lang kayong ginawa?

Baja: Yun palang mga sulat-sulat na nawawala sa mga bahay-bahay, nangyayari rin sa Malacanang at ganoon na lang, walang aksyon!

- Hanggang sa ngayon ay walang hustisya.
- Lagi ka na lang BUMABATIKOS!

RMN: ISSUE: MALACANANG Commentaries by M. Balawas
- Para sa Malacanang kapag may ibinigay na sulat sa inyo sagutin ninyo. Kapag may problema ay sagutin ninyo kaagad. Panay ang pa-interview ninyo pero laging ganyan ang sinasabi sa media at press. Ang daming dumarating na sulat sa inyo sa Malacanang pero ayaw ninyong aksyunan agad.

dzmm teleradyo:
Nag-take over na ang National Security Council ng Malaysia upang maresolba ang standoff sa Sabah. Ibig sabihin, hindi na basta mga pulis ang may hawak ng pakikipag-negosasyon sa grupo ni Rajah Mudah Agbimuddin Kiram, kundi mismong gobyerno na ng Malaysia. Ayon sa kapatid ni Rajah Mudah na si Datu Pia Kiram na nasa hiwalay na bayan sa Sabah, sa huling pag-uusap nila ng kapatid ay nanindigan itong hindi lilisanin ang Lahad Datu. Sa ngayon, nagpapatuloy ang matinding negosasyon sa pagitan ng kampo ng mga Kiram at Malaysian authorities, pero nagbabala na ang huli na magsasagawa ng operasyon anumang oras ngayon dahil lumipas na ang ibinigay na palugit para lisanin ng mga Pinoy ang lugar.

dzmm reporter:
- handa ang Pamilya Kiram na harapin ang mga posibleng kasong isasampa ng pamahalaan laban sa kanila. Ayon sa anak ni Sultan Jamalul Kiram III na si Princess Jaycel Kiram, bagama't wala pang opisyal na statement ang Sultan ay DISMAYADO na ang kanilang pamilya sa naging pahayag ng Pang BS Aquino. Ramdam anya nila ang KAPABAYAAN ng pamahalaan sa usaping ng pagbawi sa Sabah, na para sa Sultan at maituturing na laban ng mga Pinoy para makuha ang anumang para sa Pilipinas. Tinawag ding IRESPONSABLE ni Princess Jaycel ang pamahalaan sa PAGKAWALA ng sulat na ipinadala sa Malakanyang kaugnay pa rin sa standoff sa Sabah.

Jamalul Kiram III sounds more 'presidentiable' than a threatening BS aquino. this govt can't comprehend that a true and lasting peace in muslim mindanao can only be achieved by INCLUDING ALL muslim groups in the peace process and NOT JUST a single rebel group. is the pres TOO much IN A HURRY and salivating to get that much coveted nobel peace prize being worked out by his propagandists?

CONT/DZBB

No 9, the advice of the President is NOT WELCOME. The Sultanate of Sulu will face the consequences to PROVE violence is lost in the Philippines.
No 10, we will assure that if an agreement will be reached all arms will be returned to the Philippines and the 235 security forces will reside in Sabah.
No 11, an answer to your appeal we ALSO want peace, our history in the basis that we DIDN'T wage war in the Philippines.
No 12, Mr. President, I Mr. Jamalul Kiram III, pledges that my brother Datu Raja Muda Agbimuddin Kiram and our followers will NOT initiate violence and sign it with blood with my brothers but we are prepared to DEFEND our lives and our aspiration.

CONT/DZBB

No6, history proves that the Sultan of Sulu has never fought in any violence in its quest for justice. It is inappropriate to level the Sultan of Sulu as violent entity. As far as we are concerned we haven't committed a crime.
No 7, the Sultan of Sulu's action is a benevolent aspiration and not a violent reaction.
No 8, all these your Excellency, can be peacefully settled without THREAT but in a diplomatic way. Is it hard for Malaysia to sit down in square table and to diplomatically settle the issue on the grim that has been recognized by no less that Sultan Abdul Rahman in 1963 in the Manila Accord? All we ask for Malaysia is to sit down with the Kiram and come up with a win-win solution.

CONT/DZBB

No 3, during the time of the late Pres Diosdado Macapagal he solicited the authority from the Sultan of Sulu.
No 4, Pres Ferdinand Marcos also solicited the authority from the Sultan of Sulu and was given the Special Power of Attorney to pursue the claim.
Number 5, The Sultan of Sulu Jamalul Kiram III have not committed crime when permission was granted to Raja Muda Kiram to go peacefully in Sabah which is our homeland.

DZBB: ISSUE: SABAH STANDOFF - Statement of Sultan Jamalul Kiram III "For the first time we thank the President for his pronouncement on the Sabah standoff and we are happy that he is officially aware on what's happening. You will note that emissaries that were sent to us were denied by Malacanang in the first 4 days of the issue and that those emissaries were NOT diplomatic people but rather political and military officials. Number 2, Mr. President, what more PROOF do you want us to show that Sabah is ours by the mere fact that Malaysia is paying us annually the amount of 5,300 Malaysian Ringgit."

ANC: Activists support the action of Pablo victims this morning, who broke into the DSWD office in Davao City and ransacked the office, taking sacks of rice and other goods with them. "The action today of some 4,000 to 5,000 Pablo victim is a great victory of the poor. It is a bold show-of-force of the people against the bold propaganda of the of the Aquino govt that it is addressing the crisis in Mindanao, and its cover-up of corruption in the relief drive and efforts for the victims of Pablo," militant group Kadamay said.
