Hillary Clinton is such admiring woman in our time. and her appearance in this forum makes herself more revealed in the heart of every Filipino, specially in this time where our country needs an ally to rely in any case that is detrimental to the sovereignty and security of our country. she specified the unwavering support of their government in our fight for our territorial claim in the west Philippine sea and the spratly islands against other claimant most especially the China who posed a great threat in these areas under our territorial claim. however someone sneak out to voice his protest against such peaceful forum and was taken and escorted outside of the forum venue..i don't know if there be any legal liabilities that should be filed against him. what can you say about this forum with Hillary Clinton?

I respect those protesters to voice their grievances but they should be put things in order. There is no clear in what they fighting for...they are not help for the country but a hindrance to good governance... That person must be charge with disobedience to a diplomat or any disturbance of peace. Sec. Hillary Clinton, has a good intention for us that is why she visited our country... But those protesters do. They distract the good intention of the said person. Whom they protect the Chinese government who blatantly disrespect our sovereignty...

Hello aerous, that is also what i had in mind. All these protest are just distractions now and nothing like going to happen, and not to mention it's causing all the terrible traffic. I agree with you that she has good intentions, otherwise why would she keep going back to our country for no reasoN? I never really bellieved those who loves communist ideals are up to common good

Well, there is a reason or no reason. We don't care about it...unless it is not harm the relationship of both countries. Those protesters did nothing but to distract the peace situation in our country. If no protest the smooth living of the people is really appreciated...but if there is protest. Many are distracted...traffic, business, and many more. They always done protest with no good implication with our economy. There protest is not justified. The good lady secretary is an honor for us and nothing she can do to harm the citizens of our country. She never say anything to harm the people of the philippines. Who are those protesters. Who really they are and what country they protect. China or their own country philippines. They must be arrested due to violation of allegiance to the republic of the philippines. Because it appear that they are sided with chinese government other than the republic of the philippines... That public order did not notice by the authorities of the land. Being a citizen of this country. We are responsible to protect our national interest and security not the interest of other country... Look what those protesters do. They show allegiance to other country...

I agree on your original statement. I just read, courtesy of another mylotter, that every right has its own limits. That also applies to the freedom of speech. The only thing admirable in this situation, in my opinion, is the the visiting secretary understood these rights and respects them. I recall that she says that it is part of the job. Nobody can please everybody, not even a secretary of one of the world's superpower. The only thing that matter is that there is dialogue and both parties agree on that issue. There will disagreements, biases and interests. That's normal but the willingness to listen and protest for something we hold as principle is a good thing to exercise.

I haven't seen the interview or heard the forum regarding Ms. Hillary Clinton, but I know for certain that this visit to the Philippines will surely benefit the country.

Hello arnold, some one should have ask about the US's direct involvement with MILF in terms of the MOA agreement, which was later dissmiss as unconstitutional. I didn't watch becaue i know that none of the people would ask serious questions about some rumored of the US activity with the Philippines.. The protester doesn't understand that United States and Philippines have a strong relationship. If the country got screwed up, it was because of us.
