THE Kapihan sa Manila Hotel, held at the Champagne Salon, featured a discussion on the issue of hazing, hosted by The Manila Hotel President and former senator Joey Lina Jr. alongside Manila Bulletin Publisher Sonny Coloma.

The forum included guests Col. Margareth Francel Padilla of the Armed Forces of the Philippines; Imelda Livioco, executive director of Crusade Against Violence; and Dexter Dormitorio, brother of hazing victim Darwin Dormitorio. The panel discussed whether recent court convictions of Philippine Military Academy (PMA) cadets in the hazing and murder case of Darwin Dormitorio could bring an end to these recurring incidents.
