Jun Lozada is telling the truth. Why should one risks his own life and the lives of hid family members including those of his brothers and sisters? What would Jun Lozada gain if it is for the sake of politicking?

In my humble opinion based on observation, I still believe Lozada is telling the truth. During the past hearings, I'm not just listening to him, but observing his movemnets, expressions and eberything. Im no expert at that, but i just have this feeling, and ofcourse the fact that GMA lied to us a couple of times.

I think everybody is hiding something or someone... we can't really trust anyone in our government anymore...

I don't think that anyone really tells the complete truth.. If everyone told the complete truth, then no one would be elected.. But it is the same way in all other countries, maybe not the lies, but sometimes worse.. Many countries will hang you if you lie, we have many more freedoms than a lot of other countries..

in my opinion i think this issue must be studied very well bacause this involves our countries leader and involves other country. this issue might jeopardize other investors that are here in our country, they might back out on us because of such issues around our politics. they may think that their investments will turn out to nothing. I just do hope that our politicians will al help each other to improve our nation. they should think of our country and our people first before themselves. i think this is the problem in our politicians.. they think of their selves first before their obligation/responsibility in our country. Like GMA we cant really tell that she is guilty unless really proven and if proven that she is guilty i hope the corruptions stop there and will never be reeated again. Our country is the one who's suffering while they are enjoying the money that is supposed to be for all the filipino and not for themselves only.

It's easy to engage in fingerpointing regarding this issue; but it is adviseable that one has to see the facts before he or she reacts on this issue and generate his or her conclusion. Personally, I was a skeptic then regarding the issue of whether the president is involved, directly or indirectly, on these various scams in politics and the government. I have to admit that I wanted to vote for her as president in one of the previous elections; but with the different negative issues proliferating at present, I'm thankful somehow that I was not able to vote during that particular election. Anyway, regarding the ZTE deal scam, I have to say that I feel for Jun Lozada and believes that he is a victim of government's corruption and politicking. For one, he isn't a saint and he's amenable to that. But compared to the president, he is far more saintly than her. You see, she may not be directly involved with several scams but a lot of these scams seem to have her husband always in the characters list. The first gentleman seem to be innocent when he's being asked by the media people but evidence against him pops up every now and then. Another thing, he has been named by a lot of the senators as parties to various government dealings. Well, sure, he is the president's husband but does it follow that he has to meddle with the state's affairs? This leads me to think that in one way or the other, she is really involved in this and have somehow benefitted from it. I also believe in the saying that, "if there's smoke, there surely is fire." Well, this is my personal opinion. And I believe that everyone is entitled to it.
