ERWIN TULFO CROSSED THE LINE BETWEEN PERSONAL AND PUBLIC SERVICE INTERESTS

There’s a line between personal gratification and public service. Erwin Tulfo crossed that line after he felt slighted when retired Army Lt. Gen. Rolando Bautista (now Dept. of Social Welfare and Dev’t. Secretary) was unavailable and had his subordinate speak in his stead at that time Tulfo called him. Pwede naman na busy lang si Gen. Bautista at that particular time, right?

Gen. Bautista did not deserve the outburst Tulfo made after that incident. Di pa naman nasangkot si Gen. Rolando Bautista sa ganung katiwalian, di ba? GEN. BAUTISTA IS ALSO ONE OF THE HEROES OF MARAWI SIEGE! 

Gawin mo ‘yung outburst na ganyan sa tulad ni DOTr Ex-Sec. Abaya dahil sa umano’y katiwalian sa MRT na nagdulot ng sobrang pahirap sa daang libong pasahero noon at sa mahabang panahon pa, o’ di kaya sa kagaya ni Budget Ex-Sec. Abad na umano’y singkatutak na katiwalian sa kabang-bayan ang kinasankutan. Na-offend ka lang sa umano’y parang pang-“snub” sa napaka-importanteng tao na gaya mo?!

I’m an avid supporter of PRRD and it was PRRD who sought Lt. Gen. Bautista's help by appointing him to DSWD. I’m a big fan of Bitag and I understand how “brusko” and oppressive public and private individuals or groups need that “brusko”-back-to-you treatment that the Tulfos are known for. Gen. Rolando Bautista wasn’t one of those who deserved that. Over-reaction ang ginawa mo, Mr. Tulfo.
