PH EMBASSY REACTS

We wish to refer to Mr. Rigoberto Tiglao’s column in the 21 October 2013 issue of The Manila Times, where he shared with your readers what he claimed to be “accurate—and troubling” information about Ambassador Jose L. Cuisia, Jr. and his role as our envoy to the United States.

In the spirit of fair play and responsible journalism, the Embassy of the Philippines here in Washington, D.C. would like to request your publication to allow us to clarify the points raised by Mr. Tiglao in his column entitled ‘Aquino’s part-time ambassador to the US.”
