DAVAO CITY – For the camp of presidential aspirant and city mayor Rodrigo Duterte, political rival Grace Poe and her running mate Chiz Escudero have nothing to blame but their organizers for failing to secure a rally permit here.
Peter Laviña said the allegation that the senators’ camp was barred from conducting a rally in Davao City was “simply baseless if not ridiculous.”
“Their organizers are lazy. They did not do their job. That’s not our fault or the city government of Davao’s fault,” Laviña said in a statement.
He said groups conducting rallies in Davao City’s public parks are required to pay only P150 for use of electricity. They are also required to coordinate with the Traffic Management Center and the Central 911 for standby emergency unit. The processing of permits is usually completed within a day.
“We learned that there was an application, but this application was not pursued. Hindi na bumalik ang nag-file. Tamad, napagod siguro o naghahanap ng rason. Kaninong kasalanan yan?” Laviña pointed out.
(We learned that there was an application, but this application was not pursued. The one who filed the application did not come back for it. Lazy, perhaps they got tired and looked for reasons [not to return]. Whose fault was that?)
He said it is not the nature and character of Duterte–or of Davao City for that matter–to curtail the freedom of groups and people to use public spaces.
“Davao City is known for its respect and tolerance to groups and people who want to exercise their freedom and use public spaces to protest and express grievances or political views or religious beliefs peacefully,” he said.
“It is unfortunate that the senator’s camp is twisting the facts, making it appear like a permit was not granted because of politics,” Laviña added. CDG

OPINION In My OpinioNIN MY OPINION
Klaus Doring

At a younger age, one of my nieces here in the Philip-pines, when-ever she felt she was wronged, she cried out, “It isn’t fair!” Fair has many meanings, such as light-colored, not cloudy, hopeful, plausible, middling …. How about “fairly”? Justly, tolerably, wholly …
My niece’s father, whose patience was always exhausted responded grimly, “LIFE is NOT fair!” In my opinion, that is not really a satisfying answer.
Even adults often have troubles with the idea of fairness. The government body tasked to ensure fair competition, is investigating power firms as well as scrutinizing telecommunication services in a bid to protect consumers against monopolies, cartels and unfair trade practices. We all can very well experience the monopolies of electricity or telecommunication services…!
How about our work-place surroundings? How do we deal with our business partners?
Yes, even adults have troubles with fairness. The laborers in the vineyard certainly did. They received exactly what they had bargained for, yet they complained when others got the same pay for less work. If this parable were a story about earned wages, the grumblers would have been quite right to complain. But this story is about the way God deals with us, and how can we say that God is not fair?
Fairness requires people to be put into categories. Anyone who fulfills certain requirements will receive a certain reward – regardless of any differences in the situation. God knows that categories only outline the sort of people we are. He knows that each of us is unique. He gives each of us according to our individual needs.
In our everyday life, do we practice the idea of fairness in our work or in our dealings with others? How? Analyze yourself. You are the only one with our dear Lord above, who knows the right answer. May we learn what it means to be fair to one another.
