Mas pinili pa ni Reyes na pagtakpan ang kanyang kamistah o kasapakat o 'boss' kaya, kaysa ipaalam sa taumbayan ang tunay na katotohanan. Kung magpapakamatay din lang siya, dapat nagkumpisal muna siya sa bayan na nagpasuweldo sa kanya sa buong buhay niya mula nang maging sundalo siya. Samantalang wala siyang bukambibig kundi ang pagsisilbi niya sa 'Bandila' at Saligang-Batas daw.
Ayon kay Pat Daza, ang tagapagsalita ng pamilya Reyes, sinabi raw ng nagpakamatay na dating heneral at kalihim ang mga salitang ito sa pakikipag-usap nito kay dating "Bise-Presidente" Noli de Castro:
de Castro: “Magsalita ka na Angie!”http://taga-ilog-news.blogspot.com/2011/
Angelo Reyes: “Ayoko, ayoko... ayokong manglaglag… ako na lang...”
What's more, it was an oxymoron his words that he gave PCIJ's Malou Mangahas in his last media interview. An oxymoron that tries to make morons of the people of Taga-Ilog/Philippines.
"I joined EDSA II at great risk. Jumped into a void. Coming from a place that was high and comfortable. WITHOUT any REGARD for COMPENSATION or recognition or reward. I thought what I did – being loyal to the Flag and putting the national interest above all else – a right, but I was faulted for not being loyal to the commander-in-chief, that I should have stuck with him to the end, however that end might be. I stuck it out with the GMA [Gloria Macapagal Arroyo] administration for 9 years, not under the banner of loyalty; I could have deserted GMA, but I did NOT want to be branded as SOMEONE WHO ABANDONED HIS SUPERIORS…” (bold supplied)

Tungkol sa 'abandon,' ang ibig bang sabihin ng nagpakatiwakal na dating Hen. at Kalihim Reyes ay HINDI niya "superior" si Pangulong Joseph "Erap" Estrada na kanyang pinatalsik??? Kay Erap OK lang mag-coup pero hindi kay Arrobo?
Tungkol sa compensation, ang ibig bang sabihin ng nagpakamatay na dating Hen. Reyes ay hindi niya tinanggap ang pagiging Kalihim ng APAT (4) Kagawaran sa ilalim ni Arroyo? For the record, Angelo T. Reyes was appointed
- - Secretary of Defense (2003)
- - Secretary of Interior and Local Government (2004 to 2006)
- - Secretary of Environment and Natural Resources (2006 to 2007)
- - Secretary of Energy (2007 to 2010)
Not to mention being Anti-Kidnapping Presidential Adviser and Presidential Adviser on Anti-Smuggling.
Ginago ba at ng mga ka-sindikato niyang dilaw ng lubusan ang mga Pilipino/Taga-Ilog?
Apat (4) na kagawaran ang pinamunuan niya matapos magretiro sa Sandatahang Lakas tapos wala nga siyang bayad sa Edsa 2 coup? Tapos si Erap, tunay na halal ng bayan, pwedeng patalsikin at si Arroyo, hindi kailanman tunay na ibinoto para maging pangulo, ay hindi?
As his post-EDSA 2001 and suicide history showed, Gen. Reyes apparently acceded to help Arroyo oust Estrada with promises of multiple department portfolios and access to AFP funds. In other words, Angelo T. Reyes was Arroyo's GENERAL of FORTUNE.

4 na kagawaran ang "pinagsilbihan" tapos wala pa raw siyang compensation for edsa 2.
ReplyDeleteat ayaw ilaglag ang dapat ilaglag.
ang kaluluwa niya magbabayad. baka nga mag.MULTO yan at mahirap matahimik ang mga ganyang tao/kaluluwa.
ReplyDeleteyun nga lang, mag.spin na naman ang yellow media. ang sasabiin siguro nila eh hanggang sa pagmumulto/kamatayan ay nagsisilbi si angelo reyes y tomas--"BINABANTAYAN ang Ibang 'bayani' sa Libingan ng mga Bayani"!
grabeng desecration hindi lang ng LNMB, kundi ng konsepto mismo ng "bayani,
ReplyDeleteyung ngang si robin hood, alam mo ba, itinuturo ng elementary teacher ng anak ko na masama raw kasi pagnanakaw pa rin daw iyon kahit binibigay sa mahirap. samantalang ang konteksto pa eh abusado ang sistema.
imagine gawing bayani ng gobyerno... ni abs itong si reyes? at wala sigurong objection pa yung mga gurong nagtuturo na magna si robin hood!
madalas nga akong napapailing. isang dekada na at least ang panggagago ng dilaw as in sobra (from cory's time until ramos medyo subtle pa) pero parang wala.
ReplyDeletenatabunan na yata o napatay na ng dilaw ang wisyo at moralidad ng karamihan sa mga pinoy....
i don't think this country will survive into the next generation under the yellows kaya malamang na hindi mag.materialize iyang medyo nakakapangilabot na scenario. lol.
either we'll perish or the yellows would be toppled.
sana.......
repost of my comment on a note re Marcos burial at LNMB issue:
ReplyDeletehay naku, "president" A_Noy y Hocus Pcos opened a pandora's box when he had angelo reyes' remains buried at the LNMB.
i grew up in a household that thought of marcos as evil. pero compared naman to self.admitted [Edsa 2] mutineer but.loyal.to.dorobo,who.gave.him.4 .portfolios.post.afp.retirement, not to mention the pabaon millions or whatever, mas "bayani" naman si marcos dyan.
funny how i never heard the yellows invoke that 'respect the dead' line re ferdinand marcos' case.
ReplyDeletei say it's more of spin to excuse or cover up angelo reyes' despicable crimes.
