FRANCISCO S. TATAD

Only because he has a big job to do for President Rodrigo Duterte, which I used to do for President Ferdinand Marcos from 1969 to 1980, (when I was 29 until I was 40), I have a wealth of sympathy for the Secretary of Communications Martin Andanar, with whom I spoke recently on his 42nd birthday. I continue to pray for his success, next to that of PDU30. But I could never understand why he persists in announcing, almost with alacrity, that there is an active plot to kill or oust DU30. No other government has done anything like it. In a class act of conceding nothing to the enemy, Saddam Hussein’s information minister refused to admit that the anti-Saddam forces were already about to sack his master’s palace and ready to inflict the coup de grace.
