Vancouver Filipinos bat for beleaguered ConGen

Members of the Filipino community in Canada have expressed support for beleaguered Consul General Joey Ampeso who was sent home to air his side over a YouTube video that showed him raising his voice at a passport applicant. Ampeso is popular with the Filipino community particularly in Vancouver, and many are expressing hope that he would be able to stay on in his current post.
Ampeso admits losing his temper, but the diplomat has maintained that he did so because of the insulting remark thrown at him by the passport applicant – something that was corroborated by witnesses who said the man uttered disparaging remarks against the person of Ampeso.

However, it looks like the investigating panel formed by the DFA is leaning towards relieving Ampeso of his post, which is probably the prudent way of doing it considering the online comments from those who have seen the YouTube video (“edited,” clarifies Ampeso’s supporters).

This is rather unfortunate because being a Filipino career diplomat for over 40 years, Joey had hopes to serve in Canada until the time of his retirement. The consul general said he is ready to accept whatever decision is made by the DFA panel – in which case he will wrap up his responsibilities in Canada and “return” to Manila to finish his term once instructed and, like a “good soldier” – “just fade away.”

Puro siya dahilan! Tipikal na pagmamaka-awa pagkatapos gumawa ng kalokohan. Sana na nga mademote siya!

Pwedeng totoo at pwede rin pakawala ni Ampeso yung new witness. Para sigurado, do a background check on the witness, hindi ba ito hired witness, kakilala ni Ampeso, may kamag-anak na kilala si Ampeso, o anumang hibla ng dahilan that can cast doubt to the witness' testimony.

Still,- he should have a check on his temper, after that incident, whatever it was.....

that is his training... that is his charter... that is public service....

Isn't that a showcase of his professional character? (As he could have taken the high road after that incident...)
