PAB’s Jover Laurio To Sue Anyone Who Calls Her ‘Ugly’

F5BA2978-D080-4B89-B194-98C6A128A2AB.jpegMANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Pinoy Ako Blog’s Jover Laurio has lined up three libel suits so far — one each against R.J. Nieto, a.k.a. Thinking Pinoy, Sass Rogando Sasot and Franco Mabanta.

But the anti-Duterte blogger will not stop at three.

In an exclusive interview with The Adobo Chronicles, Laurio said that she will not think twice — or think at all — to sue others who would call her ‘ugly.’

Asked on what basis she is going to sue those who call her ugly, Laurio said: “it’s fake news, and it ruins my reputation and good moral character. It also could affect my chances of being on the cover of magazines.”

’Nuff said.

Pinoy Ako Blog Jover Laurio’s Photo Cropped From Final TIME Person Of The Year Cover

NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles, New York Bureau) – Now it can be told.

TIME magazine’s Person of the Year cover featured women described as the “Silence Breakers,” those who had the courage to come out of anonymity to announce to the world that they were victims of a growing epidemic in America: sexual harassment.

Unknown to many readers, a Filipina was supposed to be part of that powerful cover photo for being forced out of anonymity after it was revealed that she was the person behind the anti-Duterte political blog, Pinoy Ako Blog (PAB).

Jover Laurio had her own moments of fame when the BBC interviewed her about breaking her silence.

However, TIME editors decided at the last minute to crop PAB out if the cover photo after another (pro-Duterte) blogger, Sass Rogando Sasot complained to the magazine.

 

 

NOT SATIRE: An Open Letter To Jover Laurio, a.k.a. Pinoy Ako Blog

D93F4391-3E67-4D19-AED5-2ED607582BECDear Pinoy Ako Blog,

Why am I not surprised that you have come to the defense of PNoy and then Health Secretary Garin regarding the explosive issue of the unsafe Dengue vaccine?

In your post, you said:

“Yung sinasabi na ginawang “guinea pig” ni Pnoy ang mga bata, exaggeration po yun. Una, hindi naman si Pnoy ang may ari ng Sanofi, kasi sila po ang nagtetest ng gamot di ba? When it was released sa market, our government then believe(d) in good faith na ok siya.”

Tatagalugin ko na, para maintindihan mo:

Totoo, Sanofi ang may ari ng vaccine, pero hindi puwedeng i-market ang drogang ito na walang pahintulot ng gobyerno — gobyerno ni PNoy.

Kagaya rin ng bigas yan PAB: Hindi ka puwedeng magbenta ng bigas kung wala kang lisensiya mula sa NFA (National Food Authority). Kagaya rin ng restaurant yan: Hindi ka puwedeng magbukas ng restaurant kung wala kang lisensiya and kung hindi ka papasa sa mga health and safety standards ng gobyerno.

“Good Faith” kamo?

Aba, eh kung puro good faith na lang ang paraan ng pamamalakad ng gobyerno, malalason na lahat tayong mga Pilipino!

Ang vaccine at (legal) na droga ay hindi parang inihaw na pusit na binebenta sa mga kanto kanto.

Ito ay may malaking impact sa kalusugan at BUHAY ng mga mabibigyan nito.

Sa ibang bansa, aabutin ng hangang labin-lima or higit pa na taon bago ang isang droga ay maaprobahan ng gobyerno. At ito ay matapos lamang ng maiging pagsusuri sa iba’t-ibang phases ng clinical trials.

Good faith ba kamo na aprobahan ni PNoy ang Dengue vaccine kahit wala pang
rekomendasyon ng World Health Organization?

Ang tunay na good faith ay ang pagtiwala ng mga magulang ng mga batang nabigyan ng Dengue vaccine. Nagtiwala sila sa gobyerno ni PNoy na ang vaccine ay makakabuti sa kanilang mga anak. Yon pala, tinurukan ang mga bata ng maaaring ikamatay nila.

Huwag na muna nating pag-usapan ang bilyun-bilyong piso na sangkot sa vaccine na ito. Ibang istorya din yan.

Hindi ko alam kung may anak ka or mga batang pamangkin, PAB, pero masasabi mo ba sa mga magulang at kamag-anak ng mga batang naturukan ng Dengue vaccine na “Buhay pa naman sila, di ba?”

Sincerely,

Rene Astudillo, Politikal Pinoy
