According to the news General Angelo Reyes will give heroes honor by the AFP and others. He will burried in heroes cemetery. He will give an honor as servant of the government. What do you think? Is it fair to other that deserved also to burried there. Ok he is not yet proven guilty but such action is not deserve being heroes and burried in hereos cemetery. Who's I'm talking about other person is Mr. Marcos body not yet buried and as I know government not allowed him to burry in heroes cemetery. We know what his done but he has done also good and he was a former president.... which for me deserve to burry there also... do you have the same views or against it..

I was listening to the interview of former Commodore Robles by Kit Tatad and it appears that the Pabaon accused to the generals are true and he also mentioned other generals who had received more , he mention a top-notcher who received as high as 360M. On the other hand, the statement of Trillanes was " why he didn't resolve the bad system in his time. Well, as to your question, he is a hero to the military and that's the kind of hero they have that's why he was buried at the libingan ng mga bayani, lol. Marcos should be a hero too. It doesn't matter to me, where people are buried, what matter most is the expose, at least maybe the corruption can be stopped and money goes to the right way. At least, there are moves made by this government rather than a government who condone corruption by themselves.

Yeah, he should have just exposed everyone involved before he killed himself. That way, he would have helped the country in the end.

For me he can be buried to the heroes cemetery until proven guilty. Like what you said he is still innocent. But when the senated investigation is finished and if he is proven to be one the acquired the "pabaon" then his remains should be taken out of the cemetery. On the other hand, mr marcos was proven guilty of plunder that is why he is not allowed to be buried in the heroes cemetery.

Honestly, I don't think he deserves to be buried in the Cemetery of heroes. Killing yourself is such a coward action, especially he's in the issues/hearing in the AFP. Why he should shoot his self? What would be the main reason? Even he's not yet proven guilty still he does not deserve to be a hero. I'm not against to Gen. Angelo Reyes, of course he did many good things to his fellow. But killing one's self is not good example to his constituent.

Yeah I agree with you, his action is not good example. It is coward and weak..

I think Angelo Reyes deserves to have a soldier's rite. After all, he also served his country, and he himself has earned medals. I am not really a fan of Reyes, but still, i think the state won't lose anything by giving him the rites he so worked for.

if medal is concern many official and people are having medal of honor in military without any blemished in their records. but not allow to bury because of one mistake or corruption.. I agree to have him soldier rite but bury to heroes cemetery is not deserving for him. I think

I dont think he actually deserves it. Let the Filipinos not treat him as a hero! Though he is not yet proven guilty, the mere fact that he cannot control his guilt anymore and takes his life by himself answers the issue with a big YES!

thanks to your firm stand about the matter. So what do you think why government will allow him to burry in heroes cemetery? They to show that his action would not be counted because of his previous merits.. see you around

There are some who are blinded by the facts. And of course, some will do everything to stray the people away from the truth. Tsk!

Are you consider his family included in those people blinded as you said in the truth and facts, or they are covering up only.

It does not matter if he is guilty or not. If you have rendered service to the AFP you are automatically eligible for a spot in the Libingan ng mga Bayani. The fact that he has served a long time for the country is enough to secure a place there. Do you think all of the people buried there are honorable and honest people? Of course not. But that is one of their benefits and they wouldn't have had it another way. It is not in our place to judge, it is God who will decide where he will spend his afterlife.

This is actually a great debate now in the Philippines. Questions are asked why Angelo Reyes should be given a military honor and considered a hero, while the former President Ferdinand Marcos was not. Yes it is true that the late Reyes hasn't found and proven guilty, what about the late Ferdinand Marcos? They sequestered his wealth and presumed part of his ill gotten wealth. The latter is still a hero because he have done great projects too. Unlike, late Reyes, who even ended his life which is a sign of weakness.

Well I guess it just is in the hands of the administration's decision to give the honors to this man. I think we have to remind ourselves that this man has once serve the government and during that time he has served well and good. Since there is no proven evidence that this one indeed has taken something from the accusation it is not right to make him looked like he was guilty. I think it is just honors and if he was really guilty heaven knows what to do with it. If he was not guilty at least we have given him the benefit of the doubt. I really do not mind what they want to give him because they are only earthly honors and it is in heaven that the real judgment be given to him.

Lots of people give sympathy to Angelo Reyes. Yes he is a good AFP soldier, a good leader but I think he really took that 50 million cash money and I think it is true that really collected more than 5 million a month as an AFP Chief of Staff. And that millions of money comes from the TAX of the Filipinos. (Lots of poor Filipinos)

Actually do they have any reasons why they choose to burry General Angelo Reyes?

He shouldn't be buried there. Sure he served in the military but that is not enough to make him bury there. There are other people who deserve his slot.

yeah your correct but what we can do if the high authority given him a place to bury. I hope one group or person arise such things not to allow... that is a shameful action... see you around

Yeah, he did not deserve that. Someone must be no allegation from his entire career and have a good record of service before laying there.

not only that, may be he have good records before but getting own life is not soldier character - it is weakness and shameful act.. see you around

Yes I agree with you! Though he hasn't been proven guilty still he's under a case. Being part of the government is not a reason to be given honor to be buried in the heroes cemetery. This is still controversial. And I agree about the Marcos issue.
