Good morning from Manila! "The first step in liquidating a people is to erase its memory. Destroy its books, its culture, its history. Then have somebody write new books, manufacture a new culture, invent a new history." Milan Kundera #CourageON
Good morning from Manila! "I learned from experience that joy does not reside in the things about us, but in the very depths of the soul, that one can have it in the gloom of a dungeon as well as in the palace of a king." St. Therèse of Lisieux
Thank you to the @NobelPrize Committee for the spotlight on journalists and our battle for facts. To my friends & family, @rapplerdotcom supporters, thank you for helping us #HoldTheLine. Please give me a few days to respond to the messages you've sent! :)
(1/4) Good morning from Manila!! Infinite thanks to so many people. Here and around the world. I've been inundated the past few days. I'm stunned that Judge Montesa ignored the legal acrobatics that made this case possible. Our search for justice continues. #HoldTheLine
Good morning from Manila! "If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality." Desmond Tutu #CourageON

(1/9) Maraming salamat po! Siguro naman po - para sa mga trolls ng @rapplerdotcom at mga naniwala sa mga kasinungalingan tugkol sa amin, napatunayan na po namin na hindi tax evader ang Rappler. Medyo matagal nga lang po. 4 years and 2 months pero naging tama na rin.
On the way to court, this time for tax evasion. These political charges make me laugh. That’s all you can do when law is weaponized against journalists.
Alam niyo, nakakatawa na kayo. Pati ba iyan, mali mali. Director and producer ako ng Probe nung time na iyon. Ano ba kayo - minamata niyo ba ang PA? Ang dating PA ko sa CNN, senior international correspondent na siya.
