The moment that many Filipinos may have been waiting for has finally arrived -- it's Maria Lourdes Sereno's interview at BBC HARDtalk. I'm now thinking about how Sereno herself has said some really stupid things. So much for being a graduate from the University of the Philippines -- the very school that once held so much pride in its law students and produced Atty. Harry Roque and the late Miriam Defensor Santiago has become a Yellow Zone.
Stephen Sackur has nailed it right when he said, "You’re sounding very much like a politician and a die-hard Duterte opponent than a Chief Justice of the Supreme Court." It was the same grilling that he gave to Senator Antonio Trillanes IV last 2017. Trillanes showed how he doesn't even respect the proper Philippine democratic process. Now Sereno has proven herself to lack common sense such as when she couldn't account for not filing for her SALN. Instead of sticking on topic -- she ends up firing one red herring after the other. It was really funny to see how she went in circles rather than get direct to the point.
So who's next after Sereno? Hopefully, Jover Laurio would be the next person to get a BBC HARDTalk Interview. It'd be funny to see how the "Filipino of the Year" herself would actually end up showing why she isn't truly the Filipino of the Year for 2017. Maybe, we can also include either former president Noynoy Aquino or Mar Roxas in BBC HARDtalk.
