Weep not for ousted Philippine National Police chief Gen. Nicolas Torre III.
He is a survivor of lawlessness. If the many who admire him is right in their belief that he is on the side of righteousness, he will overcome this latest career upheaval.
Reserve your sympathy for Lt. Gen. Jose Melencio Nartatez Jr., the new PNP chief.
Succeeding Gen. Torre, he has big shoes to fill.
Moreover, he is starting with a heavy baggage- being seen as a defender of Local Government Secretary Jonvic Remulla’s turf.
Hold President Marcos accountable for once again betraying the trust of the people by turning his back from his promise of good governance.
Weep for the Filipino people.
Weep for ourselves.
